Abstract:
This is a short summary of research on the self-magnetically Bθ-insulated ion diode originally proposed by K. Zieher (1981, 1983, 1984, 1984a). We report the most recent progress. For detailed discussions see the forthcoming publications (Schimassek 1989; Westermann 1989). After the exploratory work of Zieher the efforts of recent years have concentrated on the numerical simulation (Westermann 1988; 1988a; 1988b), the development of detailed diagnostic tools (Rogner & Schultheiss 1986; Kühn & Rogner 1985; Klumpp & Bluhm 1986) and the focusing properties of the Bθ-diode (Citron et al. 1986; Bauer et al. 1987; Schimassek et al. 1988; Westermann 1988c). Experiments and numerical simulations on three modifications of the diode will be reported (version I, II, III).

Abstract:
During the past two decades, there has been an outpouring of research on the seaboard mortality associated with intercontinental migration during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. The focus of historical interest in this linkage between mortality and migration has been the Atlantic slave trade. We now have mortality rates on voyages from various regions in Africa to various destinations in the Americas, from the late seventeenth century to the mid-nineteenth century (see Curtin, 1968, 1969: 275-286; Klein and Engerman, 1976, 1979; Klein, 1978; Postma, 1979; Miller, 1981; Cohn and Jensen, 1982a, 1982b; Cohn, 1985; Eltis, 1984, 1987; Steckel and Jensen, 1986; Galenson, 1986). These slave studies have spawned renewed interest in the mortality associated with other seaborne populations, and mortality rates have been calculated on Dutch immigrant voyages to the East Indies during the eighteenth century, European convict and immigrant voyages to North America and European immigrant voyages to Australia during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and Indian and Pacific Islander indentured labor voyages to Fiji and Queensland, Australia, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries (see Riley, 1981; Eltis, 1983; Cohn, 1984, 1985, 1987, 1988; Grubb, 1987; Ekirch, 1987; Morgan, 1985; Shlomowitz, 1986, 1987, 1989; McDonald and Shlomowitz, 1988, forthcoming).

Abstract:
Long-term variability of the cold subsurface water (CSW) in the Okhotsk Sea is analyzed on the base of all available oceanographic data collected in March through August of 1946-2015 (total 65,742 stations). The Integral Heat Content (IHC) is calculated for each station and average annual IHC anomalies of the cold subsurface water are determined by month and by 2-degree grid. The IHC anomaly series are analyzed using the EOF analysis. Cycles with period of approximately 30 years are revealed in the variations of the subsurface layer heat content. Thus, in the 1946-1950, its temperature decreased, but it grew since 2009-2010 to 2015. The warming of CSW was also observed in the 1951-1964 and 1978-1994, while the cooling was in the 1965-1977 and 1995-2008. Based on this criterion, the CSW thermal condition in certain years is classified as «extremely cold» in 2001, as «cold» in 1949, 1950, 1951, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1966, 1967, 1969, 1973, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1980, 1999, 2000, 2010, 2012, as «normal» in 1946, 1952, 1953, 1954, 1955, 1957, 1961, 1962, 1965, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1975, 1979, 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1998, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, as «warm» in 1948, 1956, 1964, 1968, 1974, 1981, 1984, 1987, 1991, 1992, 1994, 1997, 2015, and as «extremely warm» in 1963. Statistically significant correlation is found between changes of the CSW thermal conditions and long-term variations of atmosphere and ocean climate indices, as well as local patterns of the atmosphere-ice-ocean interaction in the Okhotsk Sea and adjacent onshore and offshore areas of Asia and the Pacific Ocean.

Abstract:
Welsh differs from English in a number of ways. The most obvious point is that it is a VSO language, but it also has distinctive agreement phenomena and clitics. For this reason, it is natural to ask of any theory of syntax that has been developed primarily on the basis of English: how can it handle Welsh? Welsh has had fairly extensive attention within the Government-Binding theory (see, for example, Harlow, 1981; Sproat, 1985; Sadler, 1988, and Hendrick, 1988). It has also had some attention within Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar (GPSG) (see Harlow, 1983; Borsley, 1983; 1988a). In this paper, I will consider how some of the central features of Welsh can be accommodated within Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG). This is a framework developed over the last few years by Carl Pollard, Ivan Sag and others, which seeks to combine the insights of GPSG, categorial grammar and certain other theories (see Pollard, 1985, 1988; Sag & Pollard, 1987, and Pollard & Sag, 1988). In fact, I will be mainly concerned with the version of HPSG developed in Borsley (1986, 1987, 1988 b), but I will also have something to say about standard HPSG.

Abstract:
The stonefly genus Phanoperla Banks is endemic to the Oriental region, and occurs from insular and peninsular Southeast Asia to the Indian subcontinent, including Sri Lanka and the Himalayas (Sivec et al. 1988, Zwick 1982), and 19 species are known from the region (Kawai 1968, Zwick 1982, Zwick 1986, Zwick & Sivec 1985, Stark 1983, 1987, Cao et al. 2007). Adults of four species of Phanoperla were recorded in Vietnam by Zwick (1986): P. imitatrix Zwick, 1986, P. malayana Zwick, 1982, P. simplex Zwick, 1982, and P. vietnamensis Zwick, 1986. Stark (1987) provided additional locality data regarding Phanoperla from Vietnam. As part of a series of studies of stonefly systematics in Vietnam, we are describing one new species of Phanoperla based on our samples from southern Vietnam.

Abstract:
The Sokoke Pipit Anthus sokokensis is endemic to coastal forests in Kenya and Tanzania (Keith et al. 1992). It has been listed as occurring in the Pugu Hills, Tanzania (Howell 1981, Collar and Stuart 1985, 1988), having been first recorded in 1938 (Moreau 1940). Two further records from this area are reported in Collar and Stuart (1985), in 1955 and 1981. Harvey and Howell (1987) noted that, over the period 1968–1978, many visits to the area by a variety of observers, some using mist-nets, failed to locate Sokoke Pipit.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the past several years, a variety of macroevolutionary studies have focused on global diversification patterns exhibited by the earth's biota as a whole, as well as among constituent groups. One motivation for this increased attention is the recognition that analyses of temporal changes in global diversity can provide substantial insight into underlying macroevolutionary processes (e.g. Sepkoski, 1978, 1979, 1981, 1984; Sepkoski et al., 1981; Gould and Calloway, 1980; Carr and Kitchell, 1980; Kitchell and Carr, 1985; Miller and Sepkoski, 1988). Indeed, much about the dynamics of macroevolution has been elucidated through such investigations, but major diversity transitions in the history of life cannot be fully understood without consideration of the local, environmental/ecological contexts in which they took place. In other words, in the study of macroevolution, it is important to pay as much attention to the space dimension as has historically been paid to the time dimension. The utility of a spatio-temporal approach has been demonstrated in a series of studies conducted by Sepkoski and Sheehan (1983), Sepkoski and Miller (1985), Jablonski and Bottjer (1983), Bottjer and Jablonski (in press), Droser and Bottjer (1988), Bottjer et al. (1988), and Miller (1988, in press). Collectively, these investigations have suggested that major changes in the global diversities of several groups were accompanied by measurable paleoenvironmental shifts.

Abstract:
Abstract Four extensive microearthquake swarms, in 1981, 1982, 1986 and 1987–1988, have occurred near Moodus, Connecticut since the installation of a dense local monitoring network in 1979. All of the swarms have been accompanied by at least one event of M≥2.0, have had depths of less than 2.4 km, and have originated from one small primary source volume. A few of the events from 1981 and 1982 were located about 1.5 km west to southwest of this primary source locality. The time histories and energy releases have varied from swarm to swarm, with the 1981 and 1982 swarms having some foreshocks, a main shock, and a decaying aftershock pattern. The 1986 and 1987–1988 swarms were more distributed in time and totaled fewer events than the earlier swarms. The b-value for the 1987–1988 swarm is closer to that of the foreshocks from 1981 and 1982 than that of the aftershocks from those swarms. The 1980’s have been an unusually active period at Moodus, but the geologic and seismological evidence are ambiguous as to the cause the Moodus earthquakes and how large an event can take place at this locality.

Abstract:
The recruitment of age 0+ Arctic cisco (Coregonus autumnalis) from Canada into the Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, area for the period 1981–88 was compared with summer wind data collected at Barter Island, Alaska. Four years of poor recruitment (1981, 1982, 1984, and 1988) were characterized by winds with net easterly components [Formula: see text] for the period 1 July—15 August. Four years in which moderate to strong recruitment occurred (1983, 1985, 1986, and 1987) were characterized by winds with net easterly components [Formula: see text]. Results suggest that the recruitment of young-of-the-year Arctic cisco from Canada to central Alaska is strongly influenced by wind-driven currents along the Beaufort Sea coast. Recruitment may be impaired by the absence of "strong" east winds without the actual presence of prevailing west winds.

Abstract:
Olen tutkinut pro gradu -työssäni suomalaista kreationismia helluntaiseurakunnan piirissä vuosina 1987‒1988. Tuolloin helluntaiseurakunnan piiristä virisi kansalaisadressi, jolla pyrittiin saamaan kreationismi kouluopetukseen evoluutioteorian rinnalle. Adressia kerättiin reilu vuosi, sen allekirjoitti 14 310 henkilöä, ja se palautettiin silloiselle kouluhallitukselle 18.8.1988. Kouluhallitus otti adressin vastaan, mutta se ei johtanut jatkotoimenpiteisiin. Päälähteinä työssä ovat helluntaiherätyksen pää-äänenkannattaja Ristin Voitto ja yleiskristillinen Kotimaa. Molemmat ovat viikkolehtiä. Lähdeaineistoa täydentää muun muassa liikkeen johtohahmoihin kuuluneen Seppo Pehkosen sähköpostihaastattelu sekä katsaus Helsingin Sanomien kirjoitteluun aiheen tiimoilta. Työssäni tutkin adressin keruuta tapaustutkimuksellisella otteella ja pyrin selvittämään, millaisia muotoja suomalainen kreationismi tapauksen aikana sai. Tarkemmassa analyysissä hyödynnän argumentaatioanalyysin keinoja. Työssä käydään siis sama aineisto läpi kahta eri metodia käyttäen. Työni perusteella suomalainen kreationismi on paljon velkaa yhdysvaltalaiselle kreationismille. Esitetyt argumentit noudattavat tieteellisen kreationismin kaanonia ja lähes kaikki käytetyt argumentit ovat johdettavissa yhdysvaltalaisiin alkulähteisiin. Tällaisia auktoreja ovat muun muassa Henry M. Morris ja Duane Gish. Käydyssä keskustelussa on myös muita samantapaisia piirteitä Yhdysvaltojen kreationististen liikkeiden kanssa. Kyse näyttää olleen enemmänkin maailmankatsomuksellisista eroista kuin tieteellisestä kiistasta. Helluntailaiset puolustivat omaa fundamentalistista raamatuntulkintaansa. Evoluutioteoria näyttäytyi heille uhkana oman kulttuurin symboleja vastaan. Luterilaiset taas puolustautuivat fundamentalismia vastaan, jonka he eivät nähneet kuuluvan Suomen kristilliseen perinteeseen. Jatkotutkimuksen kannalta syventyminen vanhempaan suomalaiseen kreationismiin, kuten Uuras Saarnivaaran tai Wiljam Aittalan ajatteluun, auttaisi ymmärtämään suomalaista kreationismia. Myös 1980-luvun alussa Suomessa käydyn kreationistisen keskustelun avaaminen antaisi tälle tutkimukselle tapaustutkimuksellisen vastinparin.

Abstract:
Abstract CCK was originally isolated by Mutt and Jorpes (1968) from porcine intestine. Vanderhaeghen et al. (1975) described CCK/gastrin-like material in the rat brain, and it was then shown to represent mainly the C-terminal octapeptide (CCK-8) (Dockray 1976, 1980; Muller et al. 1977; Dockray et al. 1978; Rehfeld 1978a, b; Beinfeld et al. 1980). In fact, in several brain regions CCK-8 is the most abundant neuropeptide (Crawley 1985). In addition to these radioimmunoassay studies, numerous immunohistochemical investigations showing extensive CCK immunoreactive neuron systems in the brain and spinal cord have been published (Innis et al. 1979; Larsson and Rehfeld 1979; Lorén et al. 1979; Vanderhaeghenetal. 1980, 1982; Kiyamaetal. 1983; Kubota et al. 1983; Fuji et al. 1985; Hökfelt et al. 1985, 1988; Vanderhaeghen 1985). More recently, in situ hybridization with radio-labelled probes complementary to CCK messenger RNA (mRNA) has been employed and not only confirmed most results from immunohistochemical studies but also provided interesting new findings (Siegel and Young 1985; Burgunder and Young 1988, 1990; Savasta et al. 1988, 1989; Voigt and Uhl 1988; Ingram et al. 1989; Lanaud et al. 1989; Seroogy et al. 1989b, 1990; Cortés et al. 1991a, b; Jayaraman et al. 1990; Sutin and Jakobowitz 1990).

Abstract:
Abstract Fractal and multifractal concepts (Mandelbrot 1977, 1982; Halsey et al. 1986; Paladin & Vulpiani 1987) are now widely used to characterize multiscale phenomena that occur in a variety of physical situations (Stanley & Ostrowski 1986, 1988; Pietronero & Tosatti 1986; Guttinger & Dangelmayr 1987; Feder 1988; Aharony & Feder 1989; Vicsek 1989; Family & Vicsek 1991). In its present form, the multi fractal approach is basically adapted to describe statistically the scaling properties of singular measures (Benzi et al. 1984; Yul et al. 1984; Halsey et al. 1986; Badii 1987; Collet et al. 1987; Feigenbaum 1987; Jensen et al. 1987; Paladin & Vulpiani 1987; Mandelbrot 1989a; Rand 1989). Notable examples of such measures include the invariant probability distribution on a strange attractor (Halsey et al. 1986; Collet et al. 1987; Rand 1989), the distribution of voltage drops across a random resistor network (Stanley & Ostrnwski 1986, 1988; Feder 1988; Bunde & Havlin 1991), the distribution of growth probabilities on the boundary of diffusion-limited aggregate ( Feder 1988; Meakin 1988; Vicsek 1989) and the spatial distribution of the dissipation field of fully developed turbulence (Mandelbrot 1974; Pal adin & Vulpiani 1987; Frisch & Orszag 1990; Meneveau & Sreeni va.san 1991).

Abstract:
Abstract Brain lesions in the non-thalamic deep structures of the left hemisphere may produce aphasia (Naeser et al. 1982; Damasio et al. 1982; Brunner et al. 1982; Wallesch et al. 1983; Cappa et al. 1983; Puel et al. 1984; Basso et al. 1987; Perani et al. 1987; Alexander et al. 1987; Vallar et al. 1988; H0jerPederson and Petersen 1989; Metter et al. 1988). Beyond that generic assertion, there is little agreement about the so-called ‘subcortical aphasias’. Difficulties in demonstrating consistent brain-behaviour relationships with subcortical lesions is, in part, due to the same methodological issues that have plagued investigations of the ‘cortical aphasias’. Some of these difficulties can be identified. First, there is the problem of differing assessment strategies for aphasia, ranging from the strictly taxonomic (Metter et al. 1988), to the loosely taxonomic (Brunner et al. 1982; Cappa et al.1983; Puel et al.1984), to the assembly of specific profiles (ignoring traditional taxonomies) (Basso etal. 1987; Perani etal. 1987; Alexander etal. 1987; Vallar etal. 1988), to the descriptive clinical (Naeser et al. 1982; Damasio et al. 1982; H0jerPederson and Petersen 1989). Second, there is the problem of wildly variable time post-onset. Some studies restrict this factor tightly (Basso et al. 1987; Vallar et al. 1988), others accept very acute cases (Puel et al. 1984; Perani et al.1987), but most accept patients across a broad time spectrum. This occurs despite the common assertion that patients with subcortical lesions may improve rapidly and the well-known phenomenon that aphasia profiles change with time. Third, there is the problem of differing aetiologies, particularly the inclusion of acute haemorrhage cases (Cappa et al. 1983; Puel et al. 1984; Perani et al. 1987; Vallar et al. 1988; Metter et al. 1988), although these can produce non-specific disturbance in global attention until mass effects recede (Alexander et al. 1987).

Abstract:
In this chapter we set the rationale for the analysis of regionalized compositions. Required definitions for nonregionalized compositions are extended to vector random functions and necessary concepts from the theory of regionalized variables are related to vector random functions that form a composition. In order to avoid continually repeating references to literature, the reader is referred especially to the works of Matheron (1971) and Aitchison (1986), on which the following developments are based. Here the exposition is very concise; its purpose is basically to introduce terminology and notation. Proofs analogous to those of the nonregionalized case are omitted, for the most part. In general they can be derived directly from the corresponding definitions. For concepts of matrix algebra required by this work, refer to Kemény (1984) and Golub and Van Loan (1989). There are many excellent textbooks that treat concepts of probability theory and multivariate statistics. We have used mainly the books by Fahrmeir and Hamerle (1984) and Krzanowski (1988), and others have served as complementary bibliography, e.g., Feller (1968), Kendall and Stuart (1979), Kendall et al. (1983), Kres (1983), Stuart and Ord (1987), Johnson et al. (1994), and Kotz et al. (2000). A similar situation holds for the foundations of univariate geostatistics; refer to David (1977), Journel and Huijbregts (1978), Rendu (1978), Clark (1979), Isaaks and Srivastava (1989), Samper-Calvete and Carrera-Ramírez (1990), Cressie (1991), Goovaerts (1997), Chilès and Delfiner (1999), and Olea (1999). Treatments of multivariate geostatistics are found in Matheron (1979), François-Bongarçon (1981), Carr et al. (1985), and Wackernagel (1998). We base our presentation mainly on Journel and Huijbregts (1978) and Deutsch and Journel (1998), but also on Myers (1982), in which the matrix formulation of cokriging is given. Geostatistical terminology conforms, as far as possible, to that found in the Geostatistical Glossary and Multilingual Dictionary, compiled by members of the 1984-1989 IAMG Committee on Geostatistics and edited by R. A. Olea (1991).

Full text
Abstract:
Intraspecific communication is fundamental to most social behavior. It is also a special problem in animal behavior because it necessarily involves the interaction of two systems within a species, a sender and a receiver (Walker 1957, Blair 1964, Capranica 1966, Schneider 1974, Hoy et al. 1977, Hopkins and Bass 1981, Gerhardt 1988, Brenowitz 1994). Sender and receiver components are almost always separable morphologically, physiologically, and behaviorally. Each may be under different mechanistic and developmental control, and, especially in those cases in which the senders and receivers are segregated by sex, the impact of selection pressures and constraints can be very different (Brenowitz 1986, Ryan 1986, 1988; Wilczynski 1986, Endler 1983, 1993). The presence of two different but necessarily interacting components make the evolution of communication systems a particularly challenging problem in behavioral biology. In any communication system, the interaction between senders and receivers dictates some degree of matching such that the signal emitted by one member of the communicating pair is effectively received, recognized, and assessed by the other member (Blair 1964, Gerhardt 1982, 1988; Capranica and Moffat 1983, Littlejohn 1988, Ryan 1988, 1991; Endler 1993). Effective coupling of senders and receivers is crucial when communication underlies mate choice. Communication systems that accurately discriminate between heterospecifics and conspecifics, while effectively linking conspecifics to each other, are important for ensuring mating with genetically compatible conspecifics. As such, communication systems can be integral parts of speciation and the maintenance of species isolation (Blair 1958, Mayr 1963, Paterson 1985, 1993; Littlejohn 1981, 1988; Butlin 1987, Coyne and Orr 1989, Claridge 1993, Moore 1993, Wood 1993). The natural variation among and within species in both signals and receivers provides a means for examining the factors contributing to the evolution of communication systems (Templeton 1981, Ryan and Keddy-Hector 1992, Paterson 1993). Among the different levels of variation observed, geographic variation provides the best material for disentangling the myriad factors shaping the evolution and divergence of communication systems and for testing fundamental ideas about the evolution of behavior (Endler 1983, Baker and Cunningham 1985, Nevo and Capranica 1985, Ryan and Wilczynski 1991, Loftus-Hills and Littlejohn 1992).

Abstract:
Abstract The mortality experience of persons with schizophrenia and related psychoses has been a topic of research interest for over a century (Simpson, 1988; Allebeck, 1989; Newman and Bland, 1991; Simpson and Tsuang, 1996). Usually, the Standardized Mortality Ratio (SMR) is used to compare mortality rates in such individuals with those of the general population. Most recent studies, predominantly in industrialized countries (Lindelius and Kay, 1973; Weiner and Marvit, 1977; Ciompi, 1980; Black, Warrack, and Winokur, 1980; Herrmann, Baldwin, and Christie, 1983; Dube, Kumar, and Dube, 1984; Wood, Everson, Cho, and Hagan, 1985; Allebeck and Wisted, 1986; Seeman, 1986; Black and Winokur, 1988; Mortensen and Juel, 1990, 1993; Brown, 1997), have consistently found a twofold or greater SMR for schizophrenic samples compared to general population rates. Some of these studies have also found SMRs higher for the young male patients than for the old and for female rather than for male patients (Seeman, 1986; Simpson, 1988; Alle-beck, 1989). Reported mortality ratios tend to decline with longer lengths of stay for inpatients or duration of follow-up for community patients (Simpson, 1988).

Abstract:
Abstract DNA topoisomerases are a class of enzymes that modulate the topo logical structure of DNA. Since the discovery of the first topoisomerase 20 years ago (Wang 1971), many of the properties of this class of enzymes have been elucidated and this progress has been the subject of many reviews (Cozzarelli 1980; Gellert 1981; Liu 1983; Drlica 1984; Wang 1985, 1987b; Maxwell and Gellert 1986; Yanagida and Wang 1987; Osheroff 1989a; Austin and Fisher 1990, Champoux 1990; Hsieh 1990;.Osheroff et al. 1991). In purified systems, topoisomerases relax supercoiled DNA, and can tie and untie DNA knots, and link and unlink catenated DNA circles. In eukaryotic cells, type I topoisomerases are associated with elongating transcription and replication forks, while type II topoisomerases are essential for segregating daughter chromosomes after DNA replication is complete (Yanagida and Wang 1987). Topoisomerases are also the target of a number of antineoplastic and antibacterial agents whose cytotoxic effects appear to arise from the stabilization of a complex between the topoisomerase and DNA (Ross 1985; Glisson and Ross 1987; Drlica and Franco 1988; Liu 1989; Smith 1990).

Abstract:
Abstract Competition and predation have both been considered as important factors in determining the community structure of animals, but their relative importance is controversial (Connell 1983; Schoener 1983; Sih et al. 1985). In herbivorous insects, predation has been generally considered more important than competition (Hairston et al. 1960; Lawton and Strong 1981; Connell 1983; Schoener 1983; Lawton and Hassell 1984; Strong et al. 1984; Sih et al. 1985). However, there are a few exceptions (reviewed in Schoener 1983; Strong et al. 1984), and the relative importance of these factors differs depending on environmental conditions, trophic positions, and taxa (Connell 1983; Schoener 1983; Colwell 1984; Sih et al. 1985). Furthermore, it has been suggested that the direct influence of host plants on herbivorous insects (Crawley 1983; Denno and McClure 1983; Coley et al. 1985; Rhoades 1985; Mattson et al. 1988; Schultz 1988) and indirect influences through natural enemies (Price et al. 1980) may also be strong factors, and that within-plant heterogeneity can affect the survival and reproduction of herbivorous insects (Crawley 1983; Schultz 1983; Whitham et al. 1984).

Little has been done, however, to identify the factors that underlie success and failure in such ventures; this is a remarkable omission, given their high failure rate (Chowdhury, 1992; Gomes-Casseres, 1987; Hill and Hellriegel, 1994; Levine and Byrne, 1986).

Abstract:
Abstract In the following article I shall present a new approach to the microanalytic study of cognitive-affective regulatory processes in psychotherapeutic interaction. In this approach the examination of the expressive component of emotions communicated through facial expressions is of central importance. The approach is based on the assumption, shared by many psychotherapists, that the interaction between client and therapist contributes essentially to therapeutic change (Caspar & Grawe, 1989; Elliott, 1984; Gill & Hoffman, 1982; Grawe, 1987; Greenberg & Safran, 1987; Horowitz, 1979; Krause, 1982, 1984; Moser, 1985; Rice & Greenberg, 1984; Safran, 1990a, 1990b; Schneider, 1989; Stem, 1985; Strupp, 1987; Sullivan, 1953; Thoma & Kiichele, 1985, 1988; Weiss, Sampson et al., 1986). However, little is known about how these processes of change work. It is true that there is a considerable amount of clinical knowledge about emotions in therapeutic interactions at a macrolevel, but we still know too little about what is happening at a microlevel of affective processes within therapy. It is thus important to develop methods to examine the therapeutic interaction, along with the cognitive-affective processes involved.

Abstract:
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is critically involved in cognitive processes underlying working memory (WM), attention, and inhibition of responses to non-relevant stimuli (Fuster, 2000; Goldman-Rakic, 1996). In this context, catecholaminergic inputs have proven to be critical for the regulation of these cognitive processes (Levitt et al., 1984; Lewis et al., 1987; Lewis and Morrison, 1989; Porrino and Goldman-Rakic, 1982). Aston-Jones and Bloom (1981a, b) showed that, in addition to dopamine (DA) the norepinephrine (NE) neurons located in the locus coeruleus (LC) and terminating in the PFC are important in mediating selective and sustained attention and vigilance. Moreover, stimulation of the LC increases the discrimination of incoming external stimuli to the PFC by reducing the background noise, therefore enhancing the cortical signal-to-noise ratio (Aston-Jones et al., 1985; Berridge and Waterhouse, 2003; Foote et al., 1980, 1983; Waterhouse et al., 1980; Robbins, 2000). More recently, several studies have shown that adrenergic agonists, especially specific alpha-2 agonists, are very effective in enhancing WM and attention. Indeed, administration of alpha-2 agonists can ameliorate some of the negative effects on cognition produced by NE depletion due to aging in monkeys (Arnsten and Goldman-Rakic, 1985; Arnsten et al., 1988; Arnsten and Leslie, 1991) and improve performance in WM-related tasks in young monkeys with NE depletion (Arnsten and Goldman-Rakic, 1985; Cai et al., 1993). Moreover, the therapeutic effects of the specific alpha-2 agonists, clonidine and guanfacine in treating disorders related to dysfunction of WM in patients have been proved (Fields et al., 1988; Mair and McEntree 1986, 1988; Hunt et al., 1985, 1990, 1995).

Full text
Abstract:
Recent work on the psychophysics of reading has concentrated primarily on achromatic (or luminance) contrast factors (Legge et al, 1985, 1986, 1987). In general, reading is fastest with text of high contrast defined by luminance contours. In the real world, however, chromatic as well as luminance edges abound. While several studies have examined the interaction of chromatic and luminance contrasts on stimuli near threshold (e.g., Mullen, 1987; Knoblauch et al, 1984; Jameson, 1985; Switkes et al, 1988), only a few have investigated suprathreshold levels. Legge et al, (1986) demonstrated that for observers with normal vision, the luminance contrast and not the color of text on a dark background determines reading rate. This finding is consistent with threshold studies that show that the color of a grating does not affect luminance contrast sensitivity either (Nelson and Halberg, 1979), provided that one avoids frequencies near the diffraction limit (Pokorny et al, 1968; Van Nes and Bouman, 1967).

Full text
Abstract:
The normal course of acuity development for healthy fullterm infants has been well documented using both forced-choice preferential-looking (FPL) and visually evoked potential (VEP) procedures. This normal course of acuity development has also been shown to be vulnerable to the effects of abnormal visual experience during early development. Whether preterm birth, and attendant extreme immaturity of the visual system, renders infants more susceptible to the effects of visual experience is a question which remains unanswered. One approach to this issue has been to examine the impact of preterm visual experience on the rate of acuity development. A more rapid rate of acuity development for preterm infants than for fullterm infants would provide evidence for the influence of visual experience on the developing preterm visual system. Most FPL and VEP acuity data suggest that the rate of visual development for preterm and fullterm infants is equivalent when they are compared on the basis of postconceptual age; i.e., visual experience does not accelerate development in preterm infants (Baraldi et al., 1981; Birch and Spencer, 1989; Dobson, 1980, 1983; Fantz, 1975; Morante et al., 1982; vanHof-vanDuin and Mohn, 1984, 1985). However, there are also several reports, including both FPL and VEP studies, which are consistent with accelerated visual development in preterm infants, including FPL acuity (Mohn and vanHof-vanDuin, 1986), sweep VEP acuity (Norcia et al., 1985), and VEP latency (Sokol and Jones, 1978).

Full text
Abstract:
A special case of the shape from shading problem, applicable to surfaces with unusual reflecting properties, was solved by Rindfleisch (1966). For the special reflectance properties he considered, a profile of the solution surface can be obtained by integrating along predetermined straight lines in the image plane. The general problem was formulated and solved later (Horn, 1970 and 1975). The method of characteristic strip expansion was used originally to solve the nonlinear first-order partial differential image irradiance equation. The reflectance map makes the analysis of the shape from shading algorithm much easier, provided that both light sources and viewer are far away from the scene being viewed (Horn, 1977; Horn and Sjoberg, 1979). Several iterative schemes, mostly based on minimization of some function containing an integral of the brightness error, arose later (Woodham, 1977; Strat, 1979; Ikeuchi and Horn, 1981; Kirk, 1984; Brooks and Horn, 1985; Horn and Brooks, 1986; Kirk, 1987; Frankot and Chellappa, 1988).

Abstract:
Optical design of a multifocal intraocular lens is limited to the simultaneous vision principle which features two or more lens powers within the pupillary area at the same time. The principle is applied as well to contact lenses though some design requirements are different due to contact lens fitting constrains, wearer's residual accommodation and IOL's safety considerations. The simultaneous principle can be divided into two basic designs: Bifocal lens specified by two levels of diopter powers and Progressive Aspheric with continuous range of diopter powers (Charman and Saunders, 1990; Morrison, 1986; Freeman and Stones, 1987; Charm et al., 1987; Charman and Walsh, 1988; Evans and Morrison, 1983; Evans, 1983; Charman and Walsh, 1986; Erickson et al., 1988).

Abstract:
Dobson spectrophotometer No. 83 was established in 1962 as a standard for total ozone measurements in the United States. In 1980, the instrument was designated by the World Meteorological Organization as the Primary Standard Dobson spectrophotometer for the world. Since the early 1970’s, instrument No. 83 has been used extensively to calibrate instruments of the global Dobson total ozone station network. Calibrations of the instrument (on the Vigroux (1953) ozone absorption coefficient scale for AD wavelengths) were performed by the Langley slope method (Dobson and Normand, 1962) at Sterling, Virginia, in 1962, and at Mauna Loa, Hawaii in 1972, 1976, 1978,1979, 1980, 1981, 1984, and 1986-1989. Additionally, calibration checks on the instrument have been performed routinely since 1962 with a set of standard lamps Results of the calibrations through 1987 have been described elsewhere in detail (Komhyr et al., 1989).

Full text
Abstract:
Size is one of the most controversial influencing factors in the diffusion literature. Some authors argue that large firms have several advantages over smaller firms in the adoption of an innovation (Brown 1981), while others argue that diffusion of innovation in small firms is quicker than in large firms because of the advantages associated with small size (Acs & Audretsh, 1988; Julien, 1993; Lefebvre & Le-febvre, 1993; Riding, 1993). However, the controversy on the impact of size on diffusion of innovation has been further complicated by the mixed results of the studies investigating the relationship between size as an influential factor and diffusion of innovation (Aiken, et al., 1980; Blau & McKinley, 1979; Booth & Giacobbe, 1998; Damanpour, 1992; Dewar & Dutton, 1986; Hage, 1980; Krumwiede, 1998; Libby & Waterhouse, 1996). Shedding light on this controversy, this paper examines the relationship between business size and the diffusion of both technological innovation and activity based costing (ABC) through a longitudinal study in a single industry.

Abstract:
Abstract The reliability of surface mount leadless solder joints, e.g., LCCC (leadless ceramic chip carrier), LCR (leadless chip resistor), and LCC (leadless chip capacitor), has been a long-term research topic due to the concern of thermal fatigue failure resulting from significant stresses and strains induced in the joint. Numerous studies of failure analysis of leadless solder joints exist in the literature, and a number of life prediction models based on different failure characterizing parameters, e.g., total strain, plastic strain, strain energy density, etc., have been developed for particular loading conditions, such as isothermal or thermal cyclic fatigue tests. To name a few, e.g., one can refer to Engelmaier (1984), Cltterbaugh and Charles (1985), Hall and Sherry (1986), Clech and Augis (1987), Wong et al. (1988), Bae et al. (1989), Solomon (1990), Frear et al. (1991), Satoh et al. (1991), Lee and Stone 91991), Lau (1991), Govila et al.

Abstract:
Monocular visual acuity (VA) measurement is a useful part of pediatric ophthalmologic assessment. In the last three decades, different methods have been developed to provide this important information (Dobson & Teller, 1978; Marsh-Tootle, 1991; Fulton et al., 1993). Preferential looking (PL) is a behavioral method used in several experimental and clinical studies to quantify VA (Jacobson et al., 1982; Birch et al., 1990; Dobson et al., 1990). Information about amblyopia and visual deficit can be obtained by PL, comparing the results with normative data for VA development and interocular acuity differences, but there is some controversy about its value in the diagnosis of strabismic amblyopia (Ellis et al., 1988; Moskowitz et al., 1987; Moseley et al., 1986). Fixation preference is considered the most reliable clinical method to diagnose amblyopia in infants and non-verbal strabismic patients (Jacobson et al., 1982; Wright et al., 1986). Occlusion of one eye while the other is fixating a target is used to evaluate if the fixation behavior of that eye is central, steady and mantained.

Abstract:
There has been renewed interest in the family of visual hyperacuities (Westheimer, 1979). As a class the hyperacuities share the property of having resolution limits which are smaller than the scale of the cone spacing -- the limiting factor for two point and grating resolution. Of particular interest, both to theoreticians (Geisler, 1984; Watt, 1984; Klein and Levi, 1985; Wilson, 1986) and clinicians (Levi and Klein, 1982; Williams et al., 1984), has been the ability of observers to discriminate small vernier misalignments.

Abstract:
The feasibility of laying offshore pipelines in deep waters, to 3000 feet and beyond, has been established by theoretical studies by a number of different individuals and organizations over the past several years. These various theoretical studies are now being tested and refined as pipelines and production facilities are being installed in ever-deeper waters. A pipeline failure in these great depths would be intolerable, among other reasons because of the great difficulty and exorbitant expense of performing a deepwater repair. A thorough understanding of the buckling and collapse behavior of pipe is, therefore, becoming ever more critical as these oil and gas production facilities get progressively deeper. Recognizing a need for further research into the collapse behavior of pipe, Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. undertook in 1984 a three-phase program to develop a deeper understanding of basic pipe collapse phenomena. Phase I of this program (1984-1985) focused on the effects of imperfections on pipe collapse. This work was done in the laboratory of Professor Stelios Kyriakides at The University of Texas at Austin, and involved the testing of numerous small-scale steel and aluminum tubes. The Phase II program (1986-1987), also performed at The University of Texas, considered the effects of construction loads. The final Phase III program (1988-1989) was intended as a full-scale verification of the small-scale tests conducted in the previous two phases. This program was conducted at Stress Engineering Services in Houston under the direction of Dr. Joe Fowler, and consisted of Pure Collapse Tests of 16-inch Pipe (16 samples). Pressure vs. Tension Tests of 6 5/8-inch Pipe (18 samples), and Pressure vs. Bending Tests of 6 5/8-inch Pipe (18 samples).
