The Survival Processing Effect with Intentional Learning of Ad Hoc Categories

open access: yesJournal of European Psychology Students, 2014
Previous studies have shown that memory is adapted to remember information when it is processed in a survival context. This study investigates how procedural changes in Marinho (2012) study might have led to her failure to replicate the survival mnemonic

Effects of Ascorbic Acid Deficiencies on Larvae of \u3ci\u3eLymantria Dispar\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We assessed the effects of ascorbic acid and total vitamin deficiencies on growth, food processing efficiencies and survival of larval gypsy moths. Artificial diet lacking ascorbic acid did not alter performance of fourth instars, whereas diet lacking a ...

Fit to last: Exploring the longevity of the survival processing effect. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mounting evidence indicates that processing items for their survival value produces superior recall compared to a number of other well-known memory-enhancing techniques, and that this mnemonic advantage remains up to 48 hours after encoding (Raymaekers ...

SURVIVAL PROCESS OF LINKED MUTANT GENES [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1967
The survival process of descendants of a new mutant gene can be approximated by a birth-and-death branching process in the theory of probability. Making use of probability generating functions, Fisher (1930) investigated a simple survival process for selectively advantageous mutant genes.

Recovery Process Optimization Using Survival Regression [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
The goal of this paper is to propose, empirically test and compare different logistic and survival analysis techniques in order to optimize the debt collection process. This process uses various actions, such as phone calls, mails, visits, or legal steps to recover past due loans.

Survival and Control of Campylobacter in Poultry Production Environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Campylobacter species are Gram-negative, motile, and non–spore-forming bacteria with a unique helical shape that changes to filamentous or coccoid as an adaptive response to environmental stresses.

Realistic context doesn't amplify the survival processing effect: Lessons learned from Covid-19 scenarios

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2022
Imagining being stranded in the grasslands of an unknown territory without basic survival materials and subsequently rating the relevance of words for this situation leads to exceptionally good memory for these words.

The Survival of Contact Processes

open access: yesThe Annals of Probability, 1978
A new proof is given that a contact process on $Z^d$ has a nontrivial stationary measure if the birth rate is sufficiently large. The proof is elementary and avoids the use of percolation processes, which played a key role in earlier proofs. It yields upper bounds for the critical birth rate which are significantly better than those available earlier ...

Control of Relative Air Humidity as a Potential Means to Improve Hygiene on Surfaces: A Preliminary Approach with Listeria monocytogenes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Relative air humidity fluctuations could potentially affect the development and persistence of pathogenic microorganisms in their environments. This study aimed to characterize the impact of relative air humidity (RH) variations on the survival of ...
