Phase Transitions02:31

Phase Transitions

23.3K
Whether solid, liquid, or gas, a substance's state depends on the order and arrangement of its particles (atoms, molecules, or ions). Particles in the solid pack closely together, generally in a pattern. The particles vibrate about their fixed positions but do not move or squeeze past their neighbors. In liquids, although the particles are closely spaced, they are randomly arranged. The position of the particles are not fixed—that is, they are free to move past their neighbors to...

Properties of Transition Metals02:58

Properties of Transition Metals

30.0K
Transition metals are defined as those elements that have partially filled d orbitals. As shown in Figure 1, the d-block elements in groups 3–12 are transition elements. The f-block elements, also called inner transition metals (the lanthanides and actinides), also meet this criterion because the d orbital is partially occupied before the f orbitals.

Crossing Over

172.3K
Unlike mitosis, meiosis aims for genetic diversity in its creation of haploid gametes. Dividing germ cells first begin this process in prophase I, where each chromosome—replicated in S phase—is now composed of two sister chromatids (identical copies) joined centrally.
The homologous pairs of sister chromosomes—one from the maternal and one from the paternal genome—then begin to align alongside each other lengthwise, matching corresponding DNA positions in a process...

Cross-Sectional Research01:50

Cross-Sectional Research

12.7K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Sensory Modalities01:15

Sensory Modalities

4.0K
Sensation typically is the process by which the sensory receptors and sense organs detect stimuli from the internal and external environment and transmit this information to the central nervous system for processing.
General senses refer to the broad category of sensory information detected by receptors in the body and can be further grouped into somatic and visceral senses. Somatic sensations include touch, pressure, temperature, and pain and are essential for navigating our environment and...

Cooperative Allosteric Transitions01:58

Cooperative Allosteric Transitions

8.9K
Cooperative allosteric transitions can occur in multimeric proteins, where each subunit of the protein has its own ligand-binding site. When a ligand binds to any of these subunits, it triggers a conformational change that affects the binding sites in the other subunits; this can change the affinity of the other sites for their respective ligands. The ability of the protein to change the shape of its binding site is attributed to the presence of a mix of flexible and stable segments in the...

Summary

Cross-modal switching between visual and auditory targets influences attention, as measured by the P3b event-related potential. Switching modalities changes how the brain processes target stimuli.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Psychophysiology

Background:

  • Attention is modulated by temporal and sequential context, affecting P3b event-related potential (ERP) responses to oddball stimuli.
  • Research on cross-modal switching's effect on P3b is limited, especially concerning target-to-target transitions across modalities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of cross-modal target-to-target transitions on P3b responses within an oddball paradigm.
  • To explore how preceding stimulus modality influences attention-related neural processing.

Main Methods:

  • Recorded high-density EEG (256 electrodes) from 25 participants performing a cross-modal visual-auditory oddball task.
  • Stimuli included unimodal visual and auditory non-targets and deviant-targets in a fixed alternating sequence.
  • Analyzed P3b differences using temporal-spatial Principal Component Analysis (PCA) based on preceding deviant-target modality.

Main Results:

  • Auditory deviant-targets preceded by visual deviant-targets showed an elevated P3b compared to those preceded by auditory targets.
  • Visual deviant-targets preceded by auditory deviant-targets exhibited a reduced P3b compared to those preceded by visual targets.
  • Demonstrated that cross-modal target transitions significantly modulate P3b amplitude.

Conclusions:

  • Provides the first evidence for cross-modal target-to-target transitions influencing P3b in the oddball paradigm.
  • Findings support the context-updating hypothesis of the P3b response.
  • Highlights the role of modality switching in attention and cognitive processing.
