controversial subject in the field of psychology. Many psychologists have argued that such a concept is impossible to measure because it can not be directly observed. Though they are right about this‚ it is not impossible to measure how quickly mental rotations of images are processed in our brains. Subjects in this experiment were presented two shapes simultaneously‚ via computer screen‚ and asked to make judgement‚ as quickly as possible‚ as to whether the two shapes presented were the same or mirror

The Respiratory Rate of Goldfish Affected in Lower Water Temperature Introduction: Temperature is a key influence that can change the respiratory rate of an ectothermic animal: Carassius auratus (commonly known as a goldfish). The respiration of a goldfish will change depending on certain factors. First‚ goldfish are exothermic‚ as are all fish. Their body temperature is determined largely by the temperature of the surrounding water. They absorb energy from the water (and to a far lesser extent

Evaluation Like any experiment‚ there were a number of potential errors during the procedure of the experiment. Errors could have arisen as a result of the uncertainties associated with the instruments I used to take measurements‚ and also as a result of errors associated with the actual method. Of course‚ due to the limitations of the procedure‚ they could not be eliminated completely‚ so I will explain what I did to reduce them to an acceptable level and how I could have improved my method to

1SA1a. During my clinical rotation a significant change I noticed in a patient was a decrease in blood pressure while exercising. Prior to exercise my patient had a blood pressure of 115/60mmhg. While running on the treadmill his blood pressure had dropped to 82/55mmhg. I alerted the nurse of his blood pressure immediately after taking the blood pressure. The nurse was aware and said it has been ongoing. We assessed the patient who was lightheaded‚ gave him some water and told him to stop exercise

Effects of degree of rotation 012687 University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus Abstract The following study does a replication of Cooper and Shepard’s (1973) study on mental rotation using rotated and normal stimulus. The study investigated the effects of degree of rotation of the stimulus on the time taken (RT) for participants to distinguish between inversed stimuli and non-inversed stimuli. In the following study‚ we used 2 normal stimuli and 2 inversed of the normal stimuli‚ and applied

I am passionate about having a rotation at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) because I know that I would be exposed to various backgrounds of pharmaceuticals such as regulations‚ quality‚ standards of procedure‚ and policies. I believe the FDA’s Office of Pharmaceutical Sciences is the appropriate place to gain meaningful experience in the field of pharmaceutical regulation. I am particularly interested in working with the Office of New Drug Quality Assessment department in order to be familiar

Electromagnets are widely used as components of other electrical devices‚ such as motors‚ generators‚ relays‚ loudspeakers‚ hard disks‚ MRI machines‚ scientific instruments‚ and magnetic separation equipment‚ as well as being employed as industrial lifting electromagnets for picking up and moving heavy iron objects like scrap iron. But what do you do when your Electromagnet breaks?! You make one of course! What you need: Copper Wire‚ Iron Rod(s) and a power source. Step 1 – Wrap
