Contrary to previous reports, the dyslexic and normal readers did not differ in their number of saccades, percentage of regressions, or stability of fixations in the tracking task. Thus, defective oculomotor control was not associated with or a causal factor in dyslexia, and the dyslexics' abnormal eye movements in reading must be related to differences in higher cognitive processes. However, individual differences in oculmotor efficiency, independent of reading ability, were found within both the dyslexic and normal groups, and these differences were correlated in reading and tracking tasks.}, language = {en} } @misc{OlsonKlieglDavidson1983, author = {Olson, Richard K. and Kliegl, Reinhold and Davidson, Brian J.}, title = {Eye Movements in Reading Disability}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-39880}, year = {1983}, abstract = {Contents: I.

Among various cell fractions, microsomes have the highest specific activity. A homogeneous enzyme preparation is obtained in a six-step purification procedure. The final preparation appears homogeneous upon dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis, but analytical isoelectric focussing reveals various active bands with isoelectric points in the range of pH 3 - 4. The enzyme is a glycoprotein containing about 30\% carbohydrate. Treatment with neuraminidase lowers the isoelectric points but does not reduce the heterogeneity of the band pattern. The subunit molecular weight is 120000 as estimated by dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis, whereas Mr of the native enzyme is > 200000, as can be concluded from gel filtration experiments. The purified dipeptidyl peptidase cleaves various synthetic and natural peptides, including substance P, kentsin, casomorphin and a synthetic renin inhibitor. In general, the specificity of the placenta peptidase is similar to that of post-proline dipeptidyl peptidase from other sources. Phenylalanylprolyl-P-naphthylamide (Km = 0.02 mM, I/ = 92 Ujmg) is the best substrate among various synthetic peptide derivatives. Only peptides with a free N-terminal amino group and proline, hydroxyproline, or alanine in position 2 of the N-terminal sequence are cieaved. However, X-Pro-Pro- . . . structures, e. g. as in bradykinin, are not attacked. 1 mM bis-(6nitrophenyI)phosphate or 1 mM diisopropylfluorophosphate completely inactivate the peptidase within 30 min at 30°C (pH 8). The peptidase is also completely inhibited by 1 mM Zn²⁺ and by other heavy metals.}, language = {en} } @misc{KlieglOlsenDavidson1982, author = {Kliegl, Reinhold and Olsen, Richard K. and Davidson, Brian J.}, title = {Regression analyses as a tool for studying reading processes : comment on Just and Carpenter's eye fixation theory}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-16857}, year = {1982}, abstract = {Just and Carpenter (1980) presented a theory of reading based on eye fixations wherein their "psycholinguistic" variables accounted for 72\% of the variance in word gaze durations.

A major problem was the confounding of perceptual with psycholinguistic factors. New eye fixation data are presented to support these criticisms.

The rescaled values are output in a flexibly determined rectangular coordinate system that is related to the stimulus space, such as character position on the screen.

Methyl-β-alanate is incorporated to only a small extent into oxidation products of NADA which inter alia are presumed to be oligomeric hydroxyquinones. After oxidation of [1-14C, 2-3H]-NADA with preparations from tanning Manduca sexta pupal cuticle, N-acetylnoradrenalin was identified as one of the products. Binding of radioactivity to melanin-like material was also observed. These results suggest that oxidation products different from those formulated usually for the crosslinkages between protein amino groups and N-acetyldopaquinone are deposited in darkly brown coloured insect cuticles during sclerotization.}, language = {en} } @article{OPUS4-43391, title = {2018 Declaration of Marseilles}, series = {Potsdamer Schriftenreihe zur Musikp{\"a}dagogik}, journal = {Potsdamer Schriftenreihe zur Musikp{\"a}dagogik}, number = {7}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, organization = {European Transnational Colloquium "Music, Brain Plasticity and Learning"}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-43391}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-433916}, pages = {161 -- 162}, language = {en} } @article{Siegel, author = {Siegel, Janice}, title = {Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy: A Kinder, Gentler, More Modern Heracles}, series = {thersites 17}, volume = {2023}, journal = {thersites 17}, number = {17}, editor = {Potter, Amanda and Gardner, Hunter H.}, issn = {2364-7612}, doi = {10.34679/thersites.vol17.253}, pages = {143 -- 182}, abstract = {In Hellboy (2004, Sony Pictures), Guillermo del Toro presents a mythic hero (half human/half demon) seemingly made from the same mold as the classical hero Heracles (Hercules).

Hellboy's experiences evoke comparison with most characters and exploits in the Heraclean mythological corpus; his good character precludes comparison with others. Hellboy must contend with his own versions of Hera, Eurystheus, and a Nemean Lion/Hydra-like monster. He, too, relies on his own superhuman strength, innate cunning and an Athena-like protector to be successful at his job. Both heroes navigate a difficult path to their very different destinies.

Thus, cognitive psychological models assume an enhanced food attention bias underlying overeating behavior. Nevertheless, this question has only been sparsely investigated so far in younger children and it remains open whether restrained eating behavior plays a correlative role. Methods: The present study investigated this specific information processing bias for food relevant stimuli in 34 overweight children between 6 and 10 years and 34 normal weight children matched for age, sex and socioeconomic status. Children completed a computerized Food Picture Interference task that assessed reaction time interference effects towards high and low calorie food pictures. Level of hunger and restrained eating were assessed via self-report. Results: Results indicated that while finding no group difference in general processing speed or hunger level before the task, overweight children showed a higher attentional bias to food pictures than normal weight children. No effect of caloric density was found. However, surprisingly, the interference effect was negatively related to restrained eating in the overweight group only. Conclusion: The found hypersensitivity for food cues independent of calorie content in overweight children appears to be related to dysfunctional eating, so that future research should consider strategies for attentional retraining.}, language = {en} }
