CH 1 Antecedent: An event that precedes another one. Respondent behaviors are responses to antecedent events. Association: A connection or relation between two things‚ such as sense impressions‚ ideas‚ stimuli‚ or stimuli and responses. Atomistic: Consisting or made up of many separate elements. The British empiricists were said to have an atomistic view of the mind because they believed that complex thoughts resulted from the accumulation of many different associations. B. F. Skinner: (1904-1990)

creation of a collective leadership group in which members play distinct but tightly-knit and complementary roles is a critical factor in achieving substantive change. However‚ collective leadership is fragile. We identify three types and levels of "coupling" called strategic (between members of the

Information System Architectures: From Art to Science Peter C. Lockemann Fakultät für Informatik Universität Karlsruhe Postfach 6980 76128 Karlsruhe lockeman@ipd.uka.de Abstract: The presentation claims that architectural design plays a crucial role in system development as a first step in a process that turns a requirements specification into a working software and hardware system. As such‚ architectural design should follow a rigorous methodology – a science – rather than intuition –

ultrasonic motor INTRODUCTION All of us know that motor is a machine which produces or imparts motion‚ or in detail it is an arrangement of coils and magnets that converts electric energy into mechanical energy and ultrasonic motors are the next generation motors. In 1980‚the world’s first ultrasonic motor was invented which utilizes the piezoelectric effect in the ultrasonic frequency range to provide its motive force resulting in a motor with unusually good low speed‚ high torque

approach to the synthesis of high-molecular weight (1‚3)-β-D-oligosaccharides. Key elements of this approach is the ability to selectively‚ and in good yield‚ deprotect the anomeric position and also control the stereoselectivity of the glucosidic couplings by neighboring group participation. Selective deprotection of the anomeric position was possible using the chloroacetate group. The chloroacetate group could be selectively deprotected in good yield and was found to be markedly superior to the benzoyl

#: S11033198 Title: Effect of Temperature and Stimuli on Simple Muscle Twitch. Introduction: Skeletal muscle is a type of striated muscle that is attached to skeleton to facilitate movement by applying force to bones and joints through contraction. Skeletal muscle generally contract voluntarily when stimulated by the nerve‚ although they can also contract involuntarily at times. Muscle action is controlled by the Nervous System. Nerves are in touch with muscle by motor end plates which convey

Perception Abstract The experiment was designed to investigate the models proposed by Humphreys‚ Riddoch and Quinlan (1988) in respect of visual object processing. The experiment was based on the premis that participants would take longer to name visually presented objects whose characteristics were structurally similar compared to structurally distinct. We did not find evidence to support the cascade or sequential models for visually presented object naming. Introduction This investigation
