Animal Logic: Locke and the Nature of Inference
ABSTRACT Can animals reason? If so, what would their reasoning consist in, and how, if at all, would it differ from its human counterpart? On these questions, John Locke stakes out a position that also merits consideration today. I argue that, for Locke, reasoning is a matter of the subject's construing her mental states as support for a conclusion ...

Evaluating Scoring Mechanisms for Measuring the Stroop Effect in Individuals With Down Syndrome
ABSTRACT Background The Cat/Dog Stroop task is a modification of the original Stroop task as a measure of cognitive inhibition frequently used in studies of individuals with Down syndrome (DS). There is great heterogeneity in scoring mechanisms for this task and similar Stroop tasks, potentially impacting convergence of and interpretation of study ...

Gravitational Radiation From Binary Systems With Time Varying Masses
We extend the standard approach pioneered in the works by Peters and Mathews to include the mass loss processes of the binary components, by obtaining the variations due to gravitational radiation of the main physical parameters. As an application of our results we consider gravitational radiation emission in binary magnetar systems.

Darwin's work on the natural history of emotions converged with a vibrant tradition of experimental psychophysiology that embodied Italian Positivism's scientific ambitions.

Floor and ceiling functions for Pell numbers [PDF]
The analytical study of the Pell number and the role of floor and ceiling functions into their computation is examined. Closed expressions of Pell numbers were initially derived using Binet's formula, followed by an asymptotic behavior study of the ...

ABSTRACT Aim Cognitive deficits are commonly reported in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Dietary micronutrient intake is a potential modifiable risk factor whose relationship with cognition in SCD patients remains poorly characterised. This study aimed to determine the association between dietary micronutrient intake and cognition among these ...
