Coordination Number and Geometry02:57

Coordination Number and Geometry

18.9K
For transition metal complexes, the coordination number determines the geometry around the central metal ion. Table 1 compares coordination numbers to molecular geometry. The most common structures of the complexes in coordination compounds are octahedral, tetrahedral, and square planar.

Longitudinal Research

13.1K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Coordination Compounds and Nomenclature

26.3K
In most main group element compounds, the valence electrons of the isolated atoms combine to form chemical bonds that satisfy the octet rule. For instance, the four valence electrons of carbon overlap with electrons from four hydrogen atoms to form CH4. The one valence electron leaves sodium and adds to the seven valence electrons of chlorine to form the ionic formula unit NaCl (Figure 1a). Transition metals do not normally bond in this fashion. They primarily form coordinate covalent bonds, a...

What is Variation?01:14

What is Variation?

17.6K
Apart from the measures of central tendency, distribution, outliers, and the changing characteristics of data with time, an important characteristic of any data set is its variation or spread. In some data sets, the data values are concentrated closely near the mean; in others, the data values are more widely spread out from the mean.
The range, standard deviation, standard error, and variance are the different measures of variation.
Range: The range is the difference between its maximum and...

Lattice Centering and Coordination Number

11.4K
The structure of a crystalline solid, whether a metal or not, is best described by considering its simplest repeating unit, which is referred to as its unit cell. The unit cell consists of lattice points that represent the locations of atoms or ions. The entire structure then consists of this unit cell repeating in three dimensions. The three different types of unit cells present in the cubic lattice are illustrated in Figure 1.

Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation02:53

Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation

6.7K
Because the DNA segments are cut and reorganized in a direction-specific manner, site-specific recombination has emerged as an efficient genetic engineering technique. Flippase and Cyclization recombinases or Flp and Cre, respectively, are two members of the tyrosine recombinase family derived from bacteriophages, that are used to mediate site-specific DNA insertions, deletions, and targeted expression of proteins in mammalian cell lines.
The recognition sites for Cre recombinase called LoxP...

Area of Science:

  • Motor Learning and Control
  • Biomechanics
  • Rehabilitation Technology

Background:

  • Biofeedback (BFb) enhances motor skill acquisition but can lead to dependency and retention deficits.
  • Assessing intervention effectiveness during real-time application remains a challenge.
  • Novel methods are needed to quantify skill exploration during BFb interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel bi-variate method (CI2Area) for quantifying coordination variability (CoordVar) as a measure of skill exploration.
  • To assess the effectiveness of a reducing BFb schedule on motor learning and skill retention.
  • To investigate the impact of BFb on coordination variability during a novel motor task.

Main Methods:

  • Developed the CI2Area method to quantify coordination variability using joint coupling angular-velocity bi-variate plots.
  • Implemented a 26-week reducing BFb schedule for an explosive-lunge task in 16 participants.
  • Utilized linear regressions to analyze longitudinal CoordVar data for both BFb and control groups.

Main Results:

  • The BFb group showed significant technique alteration within two sessions, with retained changes.
  • CoordVar continuously increased in the BFb group, indicating ongoing skill exploration.
  • The control group showed no significant changes in CoordVar, highlighting the intervention's effect.

Conclusions:

  • A reducing BFb schedule effectively promotes motor learning and skill exploration while negating dependency.
  • The CI2Area method is a viable tool for quantifying coordination variability and detecting individual skill exploration strategies.
  • Manipulating inter-session intervals within a reducing BFb schedule can optimize motor learning without fostering reliance on feedback.
