One intriguing question in language research concerns the extent to which orthographic information impacts on spoken word processing.Previous has faced a number of methodological difficulties and not reached definitive conclusion.Our addresses these by capitalizing recent developments area learning.Participants were trained criterion set associations between novel pictures words.Spellingsound consistent or inconsistent spellings introduced second day, influence speech processing was assessed...
An alarming number of public health-care facilities in low-income and middle-income countries lack basic water, sanitation, hygiene (WASH), waste management services. This study estimates the costs achieving full coverage WASH services existing health 46 UN designated least-developed (LDCs).In this modelling study, in-need were quantified by combining published counts with estimated service coverage. Country-specific per-facility capital recurrent to deliver collected via survey country...
Abstract This paper reports three masked priming experiments examining morphological with nonword primes, using targets that were incompletely represented in the primes due to a missing "e" at morpheme boundary (e.g., adorage-adore). Primes constructed vowel-initial suffix adorage) first experiment and consonant-initial adorly) second experiment. Priming was observed both relative an orthographic control condition. Experiment 3 designed show form conditions of two equally susceptible...
On the basis of data from masked priming experiments, it has been argued that an automatic process decomposition is applied to all morphologically structured stimuli, irrespective their lexical characteristics (Rastle, Davis, & New, 2004). So far, this claim tested only with respect low-frequency primes and nonword primes. This a limitation because some models morphological processing postulate high-frequency complex words are recognized as whole forms. Thus, more stringent test would be...
Recent evidence has revealed conflicting results regarding the influence of letter transpositions during recognition morphologically complex words. While some studies suggest that disruption morpheme boundary through across-boundary (e.g., darnkess) leads to absence masked transposed-letter (TL) priming, other have found TL priming occurs independently whether or not letters been transposed across boundary. We conducted three experiments test difference between TL- within and TL-across is...
To examine whether interhemispheric transfer during foveal word recognition entails a discontinuity between the information presented to left and right of fixation, we target words in such way that participants fixated immediately or an embedded (as gr*apple, bull*et) middle (grapp*le, bu*llet). Categorization responses were faster more accurate congruent condition (in which was associated with same response; e.g., Does bullet refer item clothing?) than incongruent (e.g., type animal?)....
This paper develops unigrid which is an algorithm that results from interpreting multigrid as it directly affects the fine grid approximation. Unigrid theoretically equivalent to under certain assumptions, yet has different computational characteristics. Though generally less efficient, very useful a software tool for testing feasibility of applying given problem. illustrated with several numerical examples.
Roughly 90% of the U.S. population will develop a headache within their lifetime, and disorders account for more disability-adjusted life-years than all other neurologic combined. Among primary disorders, two most common are tension-type migraine, with migraine identified as disabling. Here, authors describe importance differentiating secondary discuss pathophysiology; clinical assessment; outpatient management debilitating headache, summarizing both acute prophylactic treatment strategies...
Anthrax is a disease caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis which received media attention when several senators and news outlets were sent letters containing anthrax endospores in 2001. Five individuals died this bioterrorist act. In nature, can remain dormant soil for decades where they more regularly infect herbivorous animals through ingestion, inhalation, or injured skin. their activated form bacteria releases tripartite protein toxin consisting of three components: Protective...
