Symmetry is an important cue for the aesthetic judgment of beauty. Using a binary forced-choice format in a cued mixed design, Jacobsen and Höfel (2003) compared aesthetic judgments of beauty and symmetry judgments of novel graphic patterns. A late p...
Visual symmetry activates the extrastriate cortex. This symmetry activation generates an Event Related Potential (ERP) named the Sustained Posterior Negativity (SPN). The SPN is larger when participants engage in regularity discrimination tasks than...
The extrastriate visual cortex is activated by visual regularity and generates an ERP known as the sustained posterior negativity (SPN). Spatial filter models offer a biologically plausible account of regularity detection based on the spectral proper...
Background/Objectives: This study explore attentional selection and allocation during alarm signal processing in complex environments. Methods: Adopting the dual-task paradigm combining Visual Alarm Task and Main Task with EEG recording, a total of 1...
Fragaria chiloensis is an herbaceous perennial undomesticated species with a high potential for sustainable fruit production in areas where drought and salinity represent a constraint on crop growth and productivity. The present study aimed to examin...
A number of studies have explored visual symmetry processing by measuring event related potentials and neural oscillatory activity. There is a sustained posterior negativity (SPN) related to the presence of symmetry. There is also functional magnetic...
Sustained focusing on a negative assessment of life events can create negative background and changes in the emotional feedback to new information. In this regard, it is important to assess the balance between self-assessment of emotional memories an...
Diseases affecting the posterior segment of the eye such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy are leading causes of blindness all over the world. The current treatment regimen for such diseases involves repeated intravitreal i...
The biological control of SWD using entomopathogenic viruses offers a sustainable alternative to chemical insecticides; however, viral instability under environmental and digestive conditions limits their application. Here, we present a chitosan&ndas...
EEG, fMRI and TMS studies have implicated the extra-striate cortex, including the Lateral Occipital Cortex (LOC), in the processing of visual mirror symmetries. Recent research has found that the sustained posterior negativity (SPN), a symmetry speci...
Using cross-sectional data from 165 countries, this study takes a fresh look at whether or not the sharing economy is a green solution for countries. This study relies on the Timbro sharing economy index and uses both carbon emission and environmenta...
This study provided new data and knowledge on the potential use of Hermetia illucens meal (HIM) as a new sustainable ingredient for Sparus aurata diet. The effect of HIM dietary inclusion on fish growth performance, stress indicators and gut histolog...
Science is starting to unravel the neural basis of romantic love. The goal of this literature review was to identify and interpret the electrophysiological correlates of romantic love. Electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) st...
This review of symmetry perception has six parts. Psychophysical studies have investigated symmetry perception for over 100 years (part 1). Neuroscientific studies on symmetry perception have accumulated in the last 20 years. Functional MRI and EEG e...
Infective endocarditis (IE) of the tricuspid and pulmonary valve accounts for 5 to 10% of all IE cases and, compared with left-sided IE, is often associated with intravenous (i.v.) drug use, presence of intracardiac devices, and central venous cathet...
Apple Valsa canker, caused by Valsa mali and Valsa pyri, is a devastating disease of apple trees and poses a severe threat to the sustainable development of apple production. Although the two species’ whole genomes have been sequenced, their mi...
