Negative Regulator Molecules01:23

Negative Regulator Molecules

38.5K
Positive regulators allow a cell to advance through cell cycle checkpoints. Negative regulators have an equally important role as they terminate a cell’s progression through the cell cycle—or pause it—until the cell meets specific criteria.

Hypothesis: Accept or Fail to Reject?01:17

Hypothesis: Accept or Fail to Reject?

29.5K
The outcome of any hypothesis testing leads to rejecting or not rejecting the null hypothesis. This decision is taken based on the analysis of the data, an appropriate test statistic, an appropriate confidence level, the critical values, and P-values. However, when the evidence suggests that the null hypothesis cannot be rejected, is it right to say, 'Accept' the null hypothesis?
There are two ways to indicate that the null hypothesis is not rejected. 'Accept' the null...

Quantifying and Rejecting Outliers: The Grubbs Test

4.1K
Sometimes, a data set can have a recorded numerical observation that greatly  deviates from the rest of the data. Assuming that the data is normally distributed, a statistical method called the Grubbs test can be used to determine whether the observation is truly an outlier.  To perform a two-tailed Grubbs test, first, calculate the absolute difference between the outlier and the mean. Then, calculate the ratio between this difference and the standard deviation of the sample. This...

Positive, Negative, and Zero Work00:58

Positive, Negative, and Zero Work

22.2K
Work is done on an object when energy is transferred to the object. In other words, work is done when a force acts on a body that undergoes a displacement from one position to another. By definition, the work done by a force is the integral of the force with respect to the displacement along its path. Forces can vary as a function of position, and displacements can occur along various paths between two points. The magnitude of a force multiplied by the cosine of the angle that the force makes...

Negative and Cognitive Symptoms of Schizophrenia01:30

Negative and Cognitive Symptoms of Schizophrenia

560
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia indicate a reduction or absence of typical behaviors and emotional responses found in healthy individuals, while positive symptoms reflect an excess or distortion of normal functioning.
Negative Symptoms
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia manifest as deficits in normal emotional and behavioral functioning, profoundly impacting daily life. Individuals with schizophrenia often display a flat affect, characterized by a near-total absence of emotional expression,...

Positive and Negative Feedback Loops01:18

Positive and Negative Feedback Loops

25.2K
Animal organs and organ systems constantly adjust to internal and external changes through a process called homeostasis ("steady state"). Examples of these changes include regulation of the level of glucose or calcium in the blood or internal responses to external temperatures. Homeostasis requires  maintaining an internal dynamic equilibrium:

Area of Science:

  • Linguistics
  • Cognitive Science
  • Philosophy of Language

Background:

  • Indicative conditionals ('if A, then C') have a reason-relation reading.
  • Relevance effects in probability assessment of conditionals are known.
  • The source of these relevance effects is debated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine if relevance effects in indicative conditionals stem from conversational implicature, presupposition failure, or conventional implicature.
  • To provide new evidence for the conventional implicature account of the reason-relation reading.

Main Methods:

  • Four experiments were conducted.
  • Investigated relevance effects in probability assessment of indicative conditionals.
  • Compared evidence against conversational implicature, presupposition failure, and conventional implicature hypotheses.

Main Results:

  • The observed relevance effects are most consistent with a conventional implicature.
  • Alternative hypotheses were considered and found less likely.
  • Evidence supports the conventional implicature classification of the Relevance Effect.

Conclusions:

  • The reason-relation reading of indicative conditionals is best explained as a conventional implicature.
  • This reading is part of the semantic content, but not the truth-conditional content, of conditionals.
