Is the rapid adaptation paradigm too rapid? Implications for face and object processing
(Elsevier, 2012-03-29)Rapid adaptation is an adaptation procedure in which adaptors and test stimuli are presented in rapid succession. The current study tested the validity of this method for early ERP components by investigating the specificity ... -
NADPH Oxidase-dependent ROS Production and Impaired Ca2+ Regulation are Associated with Exercise-induced Cardiac Fatigue in the Rat
(University of Waterloo, 2015-12-10)Cardiac fatigue is a phenomenon that is characterized by a transient reduction in left ventricular contractile and/or relaxation function following acute aerobic exercise. Few studies have utilized rodent models to examine ... -
The role of eyes in early face processing: a rapid adaptation study of the inversion effect.
(Wiley, 2011-05-23)The current study employed a rapid adaptation procedure to test the neuronal mechanisms of the face inversion effect (FIE) on the early face-sensitive event-related potential (ERP) component N170. Five categories of ...
