The auditory N1 suppression rebounds as prediction persists over time
2016
International audience; The predictive coding model of perception proposes that neuronal responses reflect prediction errors. Repeated as well as predicted stimuli trigger suppressed neuronal responses because they are associated with reduced prediction errors. However, many predictable events in our environment are not isolated but sequential, yet there is little empirical evidence documenting how suppressed neuronal responses reflecting reduced prediction errors change in the course of a predictable sequence of events. Here we conceived an auditory electroencephalography (EEG) experiment where prediction persists over series of four tones to allow for the delineation of the dynamics of th…
The presence of the innovative factor in the agricultural producer in the Valencian Community. Tools to promote innovation in rural-urban dialectics
2021
[ES] Este estudio sociológico se centra en la figura del productor agrario valenciano y su comportamiento frente a la innovación. Adoptar una actitud que favorezca la innovación depende de múltiples factores que influyen en la gestión de la empresa agraria. Este estudio utiliza los datos procedentes de una encuesta a productores agrarios valencianos que profundiza en los factores socioeconómicos que pueden decantar al productor agrario hacia una postura favorable a la innovación. Posteriormente, el estudio se centra en obtener un perfil tipo que represente al productor según sus características y las de su explotación, según su actitud innovadora y la orientación hacia factores influyentes,…
Engineering creativity support for future research and development
2017
Abstract The human abilities to use nature’s materials and force to their benefit, by means of engineering applications has made the human development possible. Multiple factors have influenced the human development, sometimes accelerating it, other times slowing it down to annulation. Although it is known and accepted that creativity’s role is essential in engineering performances, the neglecting of creativity in engineering education is not understood. The graduates from Anglo-Saxon countries and Europe reduced creative potential and the lack of necessary abilities concerning the solving of the companies’ problems have been emphasized by specialists in education and governmental reports r…
El uso de tú y usted en el área metropolitana de Valencia. Un enfoque variacionista
2017
espanolEn este trabajo se realiza un estudio estadistico sobre el uso de las formas de tratamiento en Valencia y su area metropolitana. Tras una breve introduccion teorica sobre el tema y la explicacion de la metodologia utilizada, ofrecemos los resultados en terminos porcentuales. Pero, al tratarse de un fenomeno en el que intervienen multiples factores al mismo tiempo, hemos realizado tambien un analisis de regresion, que permite ver los resultados cuando todos los factores actuan de manera simultanea. Todas las variables que hemos analizado, salvo la lengua habitual (castellano o valenciano), resultan estadisticamente significativas, si bien las probabilidades de aparicion del tuteo son …
Computer-Aided Detection and diagnosis for prostate cancer based on mono and multi-parametric MRI: A review
2015
Prostate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer of men all over the world. In the last few decades, new imaging techniques based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) have been developed to improve diagnosis. In practise, diagnosis can be affected by multiple factors such as observer variability and visibility and complexity of the lesions. In this regard, computer-aided detection and computer-aided diagnosis systems have been designed to help radiologists in their clinical practice. Research on computer-aided systems specifically focused for prostate cancer is a young technology and has been part of a dynamic field of research for the last 10years. This survey aims to provide a comprehen…
Soldier formation regulated by a primer pheromone from the soldier frontal gland in a higher termite, Nasutitermes lujae
1984
In the nasute higher termite Nasutitermes lujae , the differentiation of new soldiers is suppressed or delayed by the soldiers themselves. Experimental data strongly suggest that this inhibitory effect results from the action of a primer pheromone secreted by the frontal gland of soldiers. The pheromone must be contacted directly. Thus, the frontal gland of termite soldiers assumes a new role in addition to alarm and defense, although this extension cannot be generalized to all termite species. The soldier inhibitory pheromone is evidently only one of multiple factors contributing soldier regulation in termite societies.
La agresividad auto y heteroevaluada: variables implicadas [Self and heteroinform aggression: involved variables]
2006
The infantile and juvenile aggressiveness is considered to be a complex phenomenon, with multiple factors that contribute to different aggressive manifestations. For all this, this phenomenon has been an object of many investigations, which have the aim to understand the basic mechanisms that cause and regulate these behaviors (Eron y Huesmann, 1984; Caprara y Pastorelli, 1989, 1993, 1996; Bandura, Barbaranelli, Caprara, Pastorelli, y Regalia 2001; Caprara, Barbaranelli, Pastorelli, Bandura, y Zimbardo, 2001). This work tries to analyze the aggressive behavior and the implied processes. We have evaluated the emotional instability (IE, Caprara & Pastorelli, 1993; Del Barrio, Moreno & Lopez, …
G2019S Variation in LRRK2: An Ideal Model for the Study of Parkinson's Disease?
2019
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and has plagued humans for more than 200 years. The etiology and detailed pathogenesis of PD is unclear, but is currently believed to be the result of the interaction between genetic and environmental factors. Studies have found that PD patients with the LRRK2:G2019S variation have the typical clinical manifestations of PD, which may be familial or sporadic, and have age-dependent pathogenic characteristics. Therefore, the LRRK2:G2019S variation may be an ideal model to study the interaction of multiple factors such as genetic, environmental and natural aging factors in PD in the future. This article reviewed the …
Frame analysis of psychotherapists’ perspectives on the development of psychological disorders
2021
AbstractThe development of psychological disorders has been explained by several psychological theories and remains under debate. Psychotherapists, however, have insights into the emergence and development of psychological disorders that stem from both theory and practice. The constantly evolving field of psychotherapy prompts reconsideration, specifically when psychotherapists’ views on the development of disorders impacts their treatment approach. In addition, theoretical orientation and years of clinical experience, while known to influence psychotherapists’ viewpoints also merit further study. Applying Erving Goffman’s frame analysis, semi structured interviews with psychotherapists wer…
On the Neron-Severi group of surfaces with many lines
2008
For a binary quartic form $\phi$ without multiple factors, we classify the quartic K3 surfaces $\phi(x,y)=\phi(z,t)$ whose Neron-Severi group is (rationally) generated by lines. For generic binary forms $\phi$, $\psi$ of prime degree without multiple factors, we prove that the Neron-Severi group of the surface $\phi(x,y)=\psi(z,t)$ is rationally generated by lines.
