Comparison of Semi-Captive and Wild Gray-Shanked Douc Langurs’ (Pygathrix Cinerea) Activity Budgets
… scan sampling at 2 minute intervals (Altmann, 1974). This comparison may assist future conservationists in their efforts to restore wild GSD langur populations in appropriate habitats that may encourage wild behaviors by reintroduced subjects.

The Effect of Task Interruptions and Reliable Cues on Detection Changes Within Dynamic Scenes
… to resume a primary task after an interruption (Altmann & Trafton, 2002). Encoded cues can undergo an activation decay during an interruption and become forgotten. Currently, there has been limited research on how visual interruptions affect cued recall within a dynamic environment. Thus, the …

Reading experience predicts eye movements during online auditory comprehension
… in a visual world eyetracking task following Altmann and Kamide (1999). The design allows an effect of predictability of the target (top-down process) to be assessed separately from an overall facilitation in fixating the target (bottom-up effect). Study 1 finds trending evidence that language …

The Effects of Interruption Relevance and Complexity on Primary Task Resumption and Mental Demand
… mental demand. The Memory for Goals model (Altmann & Trafton, 2002) predicts that task relevant interruptions would lead to faster task resumptions, when compared to task-irrelevant interruptions. The Time-Based Resource Sharing model (Barrouillet, 2007) predicts that high complexity …

Expectation-based comprehension of linguistic input: facilitation from visual context
… (Tanenhaus et al., 1995), and prediction (Altmann and Kamide, 1999), but much about how visual context shapes real-time language comprehension remains unknown. In this project, we investigate how visual information penetrates the language processing system and real-time language …

Aktinabhängige Bewegung und Vererbung von Mitochondrien in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Da Mitochondrien nicht de novo synthetisiert werden können, wird durch die koordinierte Vererbung von Mitochondrien und mitochondrialer DNA (mtDNA) sichergestellt, dass während der Zytokinese alle Zellen im Besitz funktioneller Organellen bleiben. Dabei ist bekannt, dass im Modellorganismus …

Funktion früher Gene des Epstein-Barr Virus bei der Immortalisierung humaner primärer B-Lymphozyten
Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, mit Hilfe von Mutanten den Einfluss der Proteine BALF1, BHRF1 und LMP2A von Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) auf die B-Zell-Immortalisierung zu bestimmen. Diese EBV Mutanten bilden die Grundlage zur Funktionsanalyse der Genprodukte in infizierten humanen B-Zellen, die durch die …

Nurses' Attitudes Towards Continuing Formal Education: A Comparison by Level of Education and Geography
Quality healthcare is a priority. Many healthcare organization representatives and mission statements, recent research, and research priorities support the contention that improved quality is related to higher educated nurses providing care. What is needed goes beyond what can be acquired through …

A statistical approach to sports betting
While gambling on sports fixtures is a popular activity, for the majority of gamblers it is not a profitable one. In order to make a consistent profit through gambling, one of the requirements is the ability to assess accurate probabilities for the outcomes of the events upon which one wishes to …

Ein Gen für ein neues Ubiquitin-konjugierendes Enzym: Genomische Organisation, Expression und Funktion
Zu Beginn dieser Arbeit wurde die 3'untranslatierte Region der cDNA des HGC1- Gens, das im Rahmen der Diplomarbeit teilweise isoliert und charakterisiert worden war, über MARATHON-PCR vervollständigt. Die fehlenden Sequenzen im 5'Bereich der cDNA von HGC1 konnten wegen eines hohen GC-Gehalts in der …

An Investigative Study of Gurney Flaps on a NACA 0036 Airfoil
<p>This project examined the effect of Gurney flaps on a 2D, 2-ft chord NACA 0036 airfoil in the Cal Poly 3’x4’ low speed wind tunnel at 25 m/s. It also covered the numerical simulation of the experiment in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). During the study, problems with the wind tunnel data …

L1 and L2 Processing of Filler-Gap Dependencies in Mandarin Chinese Speakers: Evidence from Self-Paced Reading Times and Event-Related Potentials
… in real time (e.g., Clifton & Frazier, 1989; Altmann & Kamide, 1999), debates persist regarding how second language speakers (L2) process sentences in real time and whether their processing mechanisms align with or differ from those of native speakers. In the field of L2 processing, some …
