especially one hour before sleep, predicted a circadian phase advancement, meaning our body starts functioning earlier than the usual time (Direct effect,DE =
The chapter also discusses several simple principles underscoring the proposition that contexts can aid or impair recall of extinction depending on their meaning (association with fear or safety) and arguing that clinicians need to actively evaluate the context and nature of learning in exposure ...
Applying behavioral economics paradigms, the present research shows that exposure to the ligand causes differentiated behavioral effects in reciprocal punishments (Study 1) as well as rewards (Study 2), two types of behaviors that are frequently regarded as essential for the development and maintenance...
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Participants were supplied with a 'noise report' of their workplace together with an explanation of the report's meaning to farm workers. RESULTS: Men and women have similar at risk exposures. The average noise exposure was 1.09Pah (LAq,=85.3dB). This implies 163000 ...
Igroup Presence Questionnaire (IPQ)83Was used to measure the perceived sense of presence in VR. It contains 14 items on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 0 to 6 with different scale anchors, meaning that some items have general scale anchors (0 = Fully disagree to 6 = Fully agree) and...
Findings In this prospective birth cohort study, fluoride exposure during pregnancy was associated with lower IQ scores in children aged 3 to 4 years. Meaning Fluoride exposure during pregnancy may be associated with adverse effects on child intellectual development, indicating the possible need to redu...
The neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus signal the basophilic cells of the anterior pituitary to release luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), which bind to the granulosa and theca cells of a follicle in the ovary to promote healthy follicular development....
Secondly, some dust measurements were time-weighted averages, while others were not, meaning that two studies reporting the same dust concentration could have exposed workers differently. Also, the study excluded non-peer-reviewed articles, publications before 2010, and articles not in English, which...
Some limitations of the present study should be also noted. First, the spatial data of the DHS clusters was intentionally altered to a degree to safeguard privacy, meaning that the precise location coordinates were scrambled. This could introduce inaccuracies when determining flood exposure. Second, ...
Meaning Exposure to endocrine disruptors during pregnancy may be associated with multigenerational neurodevelopmental deficits. Abstract Importance Animal evidence suggests that endocrine disruptors affect germline cells and neurodevelopment. However, to date, the third-generation neurodevelopmental outcomes in human...
