In human grasping, choices are made on the use of hand-parts even before a grasp is realized. The human associates these choices with end-functionality and is confident that the resulting grasp will be able to meet task requirements. We refer to these choi ...
We report the results of a muon-spin relaxation (mu SR) investigation of La2-xSrxCoO4, an antiferromagnetic insulating series which has been shown to support charge ordered and magnetic stripe phases and an hourglass magnetic excitation spectrum. We presen ...
Perceptual learning is the ability to improve perception through practice. Perceptual learning is usually specific for the task and the stimulus features trained with. For example, training orientation discrimination with vertically oriented stimuli does n ...
Different combinations of forward and backward masking as well as interocular suppression have been used extensively to render stimuli invisible and to study those aspects of visual stimuli that are processed in the absence of conscious experience. Althoug ...
Invisibility is often thought to occur because of the low-level limitations of the visual system. For example, it is often assumed that backward masking renders a target invisible because the visual system is simply too slow to resolve the target and the m ...
Situatedness refers to the imagery that conceptualization invokes. The image, as a whole, provides the context for interpreting the relevance of the categories revealed in the image. At a basic level of conceptualization, the causal relevance of an observe ...
Every thesis calls for its antithesis, and every revolution prompts a counterrevolution—this takes place within the same generation as well as across intergenerational oscillations (Gassett 1958, Sennett 1974). Enlightenment thinkers were critical of the H ...
Nine films to place thought. Thinking Places is a series of nine scientific films, made with the following principle: coupling, through the language of cinema, a speech given by a scientist that works on inhabited space and a place this scientist has chose ...
Deficits in visual backward masking (VBM) may be a stable marker (i.e. endophenotype) of schizophrenia: it is present in patients, their relatives, and healthy individuals (mainly women) scoring high in „cognitive disorganisation” (CD), a schizotypal featu ...
