False memories and false eyewitness identifications: are they related?
… in each area. The Deese/RoedigerMcDermott false memory paradigm (Deese, 1959; Roediger & McDermott, 1995) and the unconscious transference eyewitness identification paradigm (Ross, Ceci, Dunning, & Toglia, 1994) represent two tasks in which memory errors occur. Numerous studies exist …

False memory production: effects of self-consistent false information and motivated cognition
… of one's personal past and the development of false memories have recently received intense public scrutiny. Based upon self-schema (Markus, 1977) and self-verification (Swann, 1987) theories, two studies were conducted to investigate the hypothesis that a self-schema guides cognitive …

False Starts: A Collection of Stories
<p>The thesis project is a collection of short stories. Their loose thematic connection is that of the mental states of distress and illness like loneliness, frustration, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and hallucinations. Most of the stories follow a magically real or surreal tone. The …

Reducing false positives for object detection
… detectors and observe that most hard false positives result from classification instead of localization and they have a large negative impact on the performance of object detectors. We conjecture three factors that lie behind hard false positives, and we confirm the conjecture with …

Vertical air profiling in False Bay
… in order to characterise the lower atmosphere in False Bay. Focus was placed on the methods to correctly measure air profiles over the ocean up to a maximum height of 200 m. A description of the system set-up, data acquisition, deployment parameters and data analysis are discussed. The second …

The marine geology of False Bay
The marine geology of False Bay, lying in the southwestern extremity of the Southern African continent, has been investigated, The object of the study was to elucidate certain problems associated with marine terracing developed in the area and to describe the nature and distribution of sediments …

False memories : a study of false recognitions caused by a stimulus film using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde das Phänomen von falschen Rekognitionen untersucht. Falsche Rekognitionen beschreiben das falsche Wiedererkennen eines nicht gelernten Stimulus. Rekognitionsleistungen sind z.B. auch von Bedeutung bei der Befragung von Augenzeugen. Hierbei können auch kleinere …

New Results on the False Discovery Rate
The false discovery rate (FDR) introduced by Benjamini and Hochberg (1995) is perhaps the most standard error controlling measure being used in a wide variety of applications involving multiple hypothesis testing. There are two approaches to control the FDR - the fixed error rate approach of …

The False Intent-Purpose Distinction In Textualism

Depression status predicts false memory on recognition tasks
… and Roediger and McDermott (1995) to examine the false memory paradigm as a function of depression. No differences were found for overall recall or the recall of critical target items as a function of depression. However, high depressed participants produced more false memories on the recognition …

The Effects Of Racial Stereotypes On False Recall
… that may contribute to this is the creation of false memories. In fact, false memories have been linked to many wrongful convictions in the U.S. legal system. It is well known that memories are malleable and are often reconstructed. As a result, it has been theorized that suggestive law …

Influence of negative affect on false memory production
… emotion induction on the production rate of false memories. False memories are a significant concern for situations in which the accuracy of memory is relied upon or called into question. Within the legal system eyewitness testimonies may often be the only available evidence in determining …

Identifying Exoplanets and Unmasking False Positives with NGTS
… to 1) estimate NGTS’ yield of planets and false positives; 2) disentangle planets from false positives; and 3) accurately characterise planets. If an exoplanet passes (transits) in front of its host star, we can measure a periodic decrease in brightness. The study of transiting exoplanets …

False lock in sampled-data phase lock loops
The false lock characteristics of a sampled-data phase lock loop containing a phase detector with a sawtooth characteristic are investigated. The ideal processor of data operated on by such a phase detector nonlinearity is derived in open-loop form. A second system is proposed which is shown to …

False presences: Fanon's reinforcement of the female subaltern
A false presence of the colonized female arises within Frantz Fanon's books Peau noire, masques blancs, L'an V de la révolution algérienne, and Les damnés de la terre. Through a close reading of these texts, this thesis aims to locate where these blind spots exist and how they are facilitated by …
