The search for a special neuropsychological profile of frontal lobe epilepsy subjects (FLE) has so far led to inconclusive results. In this paper we compared the preoperative neuropsychological performance of FLE and temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) subjects. We further investigated whether frontal lobe lesions of epileptogenic cause produce the same type of cognitive dysfunction as do tumours of t...

The current study investigates how foreign language enjoyment (FLE), classroom anxiety (FLCA) and attitude/motivation (AM) of 360 learners English, German, French Spanish in a Kuwaiti university was shaped over the course one semester by three teacher behaviours: frequency using (FL) class, predictability joking. Linear mixed modelling revealed positive relationship between behaviours FLE as we...

BACKGROUND Especially in hidden lesions causing drug-resistant frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), the localization of the epileptic zone EZ can be a challenge. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) can raise the chances for localization of the (EZ) in combination with electroencephalography (EEG). We investigated the impact of MEG-guided epilepsy surgery with the aid of neuronavigation and intraoperative MR i...

Intonation is a fffndamental mffsic concept that has a special relefiance in Indian art mffsic. It is characteristic of the rāga and intrinsic to the mffsical expression of the performer. Describing intonation is of importance to sefieral information retriefial tasks like the defielopment of rāga and artist similarity measffres. In offr prefiioffs flork, fle proposed a compact representation of...

The neuropsychological consequences of Frontal Lobe Epilepsy (FLE) are not as well characterized as those of temporal lobe epilepsy. In the past 5 years though, new advances in behavioral assessment and imaging techniques have begun to more fully elucidate the cognitive, behavioral, and emotional sequelae of these conditions, especially in children. This review summarizes the recent advances in...

A sound presented in close temporal proximity to a visual stimulus can alter the perceived temporal dimensions of the visual stimulus (temporal ventriloquism). In this article, the authors demonstrate temporal ventriloquism in the flash-lag effect (FLE), a visual illusion in which a flash appears to lag relative to a moving object. In Experiment 1, the magnitude and the variability of the FLE w...

This study investigated the social cognitive functioning of patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), using a range of procedures that have shown impairments in patients following focal prefrontal brain lesions. Fourteen participants with FLE were compared with 14 healthy controls on story tests of theory of mind (ToM), faux pas appreciation, mental and physical state cartoon humor appreciatio...

The design of a web-based, networked learning environment, Future Learning Environment Tools (FLE-Tools) embodies a model of progressive inquiry. In this paper, we introduce the progressive inquiry model and describe how different modules FLETools are designed to facilitate participation in this kind of inquiry. Results of a pilot experiment of using FLE-Tools in higher education are presented....

The Fractional Langevin Equation (FLE) describes a non-Markovian Generalized Brownian Motion with long time persistence (superdiffusion), or anti-persistence (subdiffusion) of both velocity-velocity correlations, and position increments. It presents a case of the Generalized Langevin Equation (GLE) with a singular power law memory kernel. We propose and numerically realize a numerically efficie...

When two moving objects are presented in perfect alignment, but are not visible for the same amount of time, the briefer object will often be perceived as "lagging" the object of greater duration. Most investigations of this flash-lag effect (FLE) employ high velocity broadband stimuli, such as lines or dots with sharp boundaries and flashes with rapid onset and offset. We introduce a stimulus ...
