Neural priming in human frontal cortex: multiple forms of learning reduce demands on the prefrontal executive system.

30 Aug 2009 Past experience is hypothesized to reduce computational demands in PFC by providing bottom-up predictive information that informs subsequent stimulus-action mapping. The present fMRI study measured cortical activity reductions ("neural ...

Learning to become an expert: reinforcement learning and the acquisition of perceptual expertise.

30 Aug 2009 To elucidate the neural mechanisms underlying the development of perceptual expertise, we recorded ERPs while participants performed a categorization task. We found that as participants learned to discriminate computer generated "blob" stimuli, ...

Biochemical, behavioural and quantitative alterations in cerebellum of Swiss albino mice following irradiation and its modulation by Grewia asiatica.

30 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: To study the biochemical, quantitative histopathological and behavioural changes after 5 Gy whole body irradiation and its modulation by supplementation of Grewia asiatica extract (GAE) on male Swiss albino mice up to 30 days. MATERIALS AND ...

Attributing study effort to data-driven and goal-driven effects: implications for metacognitive judgments.

30 Aug 2009 In self-paced learning, when the regulation of effort is goal driven (e.g., allocated to different items according to their relative importance), judgments of learning (JOLs) increase with study time. When it is data driven (i.e., determined by the ...

Use of self-to-object and object-to-object spatial relations in locomotion.

30 Aug 2009 In 8 experiments, the authors examined the use of representations of self-to-object or object-to-object spatial relations during locomotion. Participants learned geometrically regular or irregular layouts of objects while standing at the edge or in ...

Deficits in cross-race face learning: insights from eye movements and pupillometry.

30 Aug 2009 The own-race bias (ORB) is a well-known finding wherein people are better able to recognize and discriminate own-race faces, relative to cross-race faces. In 2 experiments, participants viewed Asian and Caucasian faces, in preparation for ...

A tale of two tasks: reversing the self-regulatory resource depletion effect.

30 Aug 2009 This research examined the self-regulatory depletion model (e.g., M. Muraven & R. F. Baumeister, 2000). Although numerous studies support this model's prediction of decrements in self-regulation across tasks, the majority of this research has relied ...

Bumblebees learn to forage like Bayesians.

30 Aug 2009 Bayesian foraging in patchy environments requires that foragers have information about the distribution of resources among patches (prior information), either set by natural selection or learned from past experience. We test the hypothesis that ...

A review of significant events analysed in general practice: implications for the quality and safety of patient care.

30 Aug 2009 : BACKGROUND: Significant event analysis (SEA) is promoted as a team-based approach to enhancing patient safety through reflective learning. Evidence of SEA participation is required for appraisal and contractual purposes in UK general practice. A ...

Teaching dental pain with and without underlying oral physiology: learning implications.

30 Aug 2009 This study investigated whether teaching undergraduate dental students the diagnosis and management of acute dental pain alongside the underpinning oral physiology helped them to understand the topic better than teaching them acute dental pain as a ...
