Contrasting contrastive-topicalization strategies

open access: yesAnuario del Seminario de Filología Vasca "Julio de Urquijo", 2023
This paper offers a comparison and preliminary analysis of ‘topicalization’ strategies in German, Basque, and English. I argue that Basque and English topics at the left periphery are dislocated elements resumed by pronominal correlates, a configuration more directly evidenced in German.

Crystal structure of diethyl 3,3′-[(2-fluorophenyl)methylidene]bis(1H-indole-2-carboxylate)

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2017
In the title compound, C29H25FN2O4, the mean planes of the two indole ring systems (r.m.s. deviations = 0.1392 and 0.0115 Å) are approximately perpendicular to one another, subtending a dihedral angle of 86.0 (5)°; the benzene ring is twisted with ...

Comprehensive phenotyping revealed transient startle response reduction and histopathological gadolinium localization to perineuronal nets after gadodiamide administration in rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Gadolinium based contrast agents (GBCAs) are widely used in clinical MRI since the mid-1980s. Recently, concerns have been raised that trace amounts of Gadolinium (Gd), detected in brains even long time after GBCA application, may cause yet unrecognized ...

The functional role of contrast adaptation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Prolonged inspection of high contrast sinewave gratings increases the contrast required to detect gratings having a similar spatial frequency and orientation. The functional role of such adaptation has, however, in the past, eluded disclosure.

The effects of surround contrast on contrast thresholds, perceived contrast and contrast discrimination

open access: yesVision Research, 1998
Perceived contrast, contrast detection thresholds and contrast discrimination thresholds were measured in the presence and absence of surrounding patterns of a similar spatio-temporal makeup. In the foveal retina we found that the perceived contrast of the central pattern was reduced by the presence of the contrast surrounds with the effect being ...
