Faces were bandpass filtered using a radially symmetric filter and normalized in luminance. Spatial frequency (SF) content in the original stimuli (broad-band, BSF) was filtered (high-pass cut-off: 24 cycles/image for HSF stimuli; low-pass cut-off: 8 cycles/image for the LSF stimuli). ...
The prevalence of obesity in women of reproductive age is increasing worldwide due to the intake of high-calorie, low-fiber diets, the consumption of manufactured high-sugar foods, and a sedentary lifestyle (Hanson et al., 2017; Poston et al., 2016). Maternal obesity before and during pre...
Note that we purposefully use “high" and “low" instead of quantitative values when describing conditions because 1) different measures report polarization on different scales and 2) our approach to assessing polarization is not necessarily meant to be informative in isolation. Instead, polarization o...
The effects of the histamine H1 antagonist meclizine on the startle response and PPI were investigated in healthy male subjects with high baseline startle responses and low PPI levels. Meclizine was administered to participants (n ¼ 24) using a within-subjects design with each participant ...
fCWT thus features a high-frequency resolution in the low-frequency spectrum and a lower frequency resolution in the high-frequency spectrum. PyWavelet19 and SciPy20 execution times were measured in a Python 3.8.6 environment, using the Timeit library inside the code to exclude compile time. ...
In the cosmic plan’s defense, I always feel cranky and negative in January and February as I am very susceptible to seasonal affective disorder. But I can feel the exhaustion in my friends as well. Our enthusiasm for pretty much everything is at an all time low. We’re not talking abo...
The cigarette, which has less than (1) mg of tar, includes a filter which comprises, on the tobacco side, a paper filter (T1) with a very high resistance to drawing and a very high filtration coefficient. On the mouth side is a cellulose acetate filter (T3) with a very low resistance...
Event-related potentials and difference waves for the high discounters (top) and low discounters (bottom). Stimulus presentation occurs at 0 ms, and negative is plotted up by convention. Shaded areas indicate the time range in which the reward positivity (RewP) was evaluated (250–350 ms)....
A low pass Hanning filter was applied to the time series with the upper frequency set at the Nyquist limit for these data of 100 Hz. Figure 1 plots the average FFT amplitude for the elbow (a), hip (b) and spine (c) as a function of oscillatory frequency, separately for the ...
Until recently, brain networks underlying emotional voice prosody decoding and processing were focused on modulations in primary and secondary auditory, ventral frontal and prefrontal cortices, and the amygdala. Growing interest for a specific role of th
