Manual responses can be defined by differing response parameters. Any of them may generate a Simon effect. For all those response parameters, the same implementation of the Simon effect (in terms of subserving mechanism) is assumed. In 3 experiments, subjects had to respond with either fingers or sticks. Temporal properties of the Simon effect changed with response parameters relevant in a task. The Simon effect for manual responses decayed. For stick responses, in which the action goal differed from the anatomical mapping of the acting hand, a sustained Simon effect was observed. However, if the action goal for stick responses was not instrumental for selecting the correct response, the Simon effect decayed. The findings are consistent with the notion of different mechanisms involved in generating a Simon effect. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献
We exhibit small size measure-once one-way quantum finite automata (mo-1qfa’s) inducing multiperiodic stochastic events. Moreover, for certain classes of multiperiodic languages, we exhibit: (i) isolated cut point mo-1qfa’s whose size logarithmically depends on the periods; (ii) Monte Carlo mo-1qfa’s whose size logarithmically depends on the periods and polynomially on the inverse of the error probability. 相似文献
This paper deals with the role of dispersed lanthana as an active phase in several catalytic reactions: CO hydrogenation, CO oxidation, and oxidative dimerization of methane.
Characterization of the prepared catalysts indicates that lanthana can be effectively dispersed on silica and on ceria. While in the case of silica-supported catalysts lanthana appears at the surface, leading to an almost full coverage for loadings higher than 40%, in the case of ceria-based systems, lanthana forms a solid solution with the support.
In all the reactions studied, the presence of lanthana can be related to significant changes in the catalytic properties of the bare supports. Thus, the selectivity towards the total oxidation products observed on pure ceria is decreased, and the low activity shown by silica is enhanced. For the CO+H2 reaction, the addition of lanthana also generates upgraded products. 相似文献
We have used two dimensional drift diffusion simulations to calculate the electrical properties of bottom contact pentacene based organic thin film transistor, taking into account field-dependent mobility and interface or bulk trap states. In order to derive from basic principles the transport properties of the organic semiconductor we have developed a Monte Carlo simulator to calculate the field dependent mobility. We analyzed the presence of trap states at the interface between organic material and gate insulator and we show the influence of trap states combined with the effect of field-dependent mobility on the transfer characteristic. Numerical calculations are also reported for the output characteristics of the device showing a very good agreement with the available experimental results. 相似文献
The previous on-line LC-GC method for the direct analysis of the minor components in oils and fats (without cleavage of esters) was modified: The free alcohols/sterols were silylated instead of acylated, and the LC fraction transferred to GC is widened to range from the beginning of the LC chromatogram up to the sterol esters. Silylation eliminated the problem that acylation may esterify some free alcohols with free fatty acids from the oil if the oil or fat is of high acidity. Widening of the LC fraction to include squalene and the tocopherols added information to that previously obtained. 相似文献
The computational method for large deformation plasticity called differential equations on a manifold (DEM) has previously been shown to be effective for axisymmetric and plane strain sheet metal forming problems. The method has now been formulated for in-plane stretching problems, incorporated into a computer code, and applied to several problems. The code's performance is robust and accurate, as evidenced by a comparison with other published results. Incorporation of an automatic mesh generator significantly reduces data preparation time. 相似文献
