We studied how capuchin monkeys and 2- to 5-year-old children used information originating from their own actions, those of a human demonstrator, or an animated cue. This information, presented via a touchscreen, always revealed in the first trial (T1) the reward value (rewarded or unrewarded...
Results from our national survey of 542 organic fruit and vegetable farmers show that fewer agroecological practices were used on large farms, which also exhibited the greatest degree of conventionalization. Intercropping, insectary plantings and border plantings were at least 1.4 times more likely ...
Juveniles were the largest fraction of bullfinches observed during July-September, and from August it was generally more difficult to detect individuals in general, when they were less mobile, emitted fewer sounds and occupied apparently less accessible safer places, probably to favour survival during ...
Hypothesis #2 we label “Constriction of Use Opportunities.” In this scenario adolescent substance use declines as a result of fewer substance use opportunities, such as parties and informal social gatherings with peers. As these opportunities decrease, adolescents would have less exposure to substance...
Participants with healthy weight also demonstrated use of more efficient learning strategies for immediate recall as they were more likely to use both semantic and serial clustering strategies and less likely to use subjective clustering. Given the relationship between age and memory, we explored the ...
However, despite recommendations, patients with AUD may be less likely to receive DAAs. Objective To assess the association between alcohol use and receipt of DAA treatment among patients with HCV within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study ...
(e.g., urban vs rural) or climate. For example, Ijumba et al. found that the incidence of clinical episodes of malaria in Tanzania was significantly less in children living close to a large area of irrigated rice production than in other communities without rice33, while Klinkenberg et al...
These metrics predicted mice behavior, but less accurately than a simple mean of other mice. Moreover, these metrics are not an intuitive model for the mouse visual system. Accordingly, we attempted to predict the discrimination performance with a model based on basic features of neuronal ...
This study formed part of the European project CATCH-C in which AEZs in Europe were identified based on three environmental factors: climate, slope and soil texture. Each AEZ has more or less homogeneous conditions for each factor (Hijbeek et al., 2013). Six AEZs were studied in four count...
(2020) for Senegal, who provide a more pessimistic view of remote learning there: most students were either doing no educational activities, studying alone, or doing exercises given by parents; with fewer than 5 percent doing exercises given by teachers and less than one percent doing online ...
