Inhibition in the dynamics of selective attention: an integrative model for negative priming
We introduce a computational model of the negative priming (NP) effect that includes perception, memory, attention, decision making, and action. The model is designed to provide a coherent picture across competing theories of NP. The model is formulated in terms of abstract dynamics for the activations of features, their binding into object entities, their semantic categorization as well as related memories and appropriate reactions. The dynamic variables interact in a connectionist network which is shown to be adaptable to a variety of experimental paradigms. We find that selective attention can be modeled by means of inhibitory processes and by a threshold dynamics. From the necessity of quantifying the experimental paradigms, we conclude that the specificity of the experimental paradigm must be taken into account when predicting the nature of the NP effect

Inheritance of resistance to powdery mildew and agronomical performance of some oat germplasm
Powdery mildew is an endemic disease in northern parts of Germany and reduces yields depending from time and severity of infection (Bartels 1980). Resistances to powdery mildew derived from Avena macrostachya CAV5264 and A. pilosa CAV 0128 (Hoppe & Kummer 1991) have been analysed genetically using the detached-leaf tests on benzimidazole-containing agar. Segregation in F2 and BC1 are explainable by one incompletely dominant gene for resistance derived from A. macrostachya CAV5264 and one dominant gene from A. pilosa CAV 0128. Avena occidentalis CAV3889 (Herrmann & Roderick 1996), another donor for resistance to powdery mildew, was investigated in a glasshouse test with F2 and BC1F2 seedlings. According to the segregation two recessive genes encode for resistance, which will be validated by detached-leaf tests in advanced backcross generations. Several progenies derived from crosses with the resistance donors mentioned above have been examined for agronomic performance at two locations. The germplasm displayed genetic variation in yield components, whereby the lowest yields where found in progenies of crosses with A. occidentalis CAV3889, due to the low number of backcrosses (BC1) with the highyielding parent.

Identity negative priming: a phenomenon of perception, recognition or selection?
The present study addresses the problem whether negative priming (NP) is due to information processing in perception, recognition or selection. We argue that most NP studies confound priming and perceptual similarity of prime-probe episodes and implement a color-switch paradigm in order to resolve the issue. In a series of three identity negative priming experiments with verbal naming response, we determined when NP and positive priming (PP) occur during a trial. The first experiment assessed the impact of target color on priming effects. It consisted of two blocks, each with a different fixed target color. With respect to target color no differential priming effects were found. In Experiment 2 the target color was indicated by a cue for each trial. Here we resolved the confounding of perceptual similarity and priming condition. In trials with coinciding colors for prime and probe, we found priming effects similar to Experiment 1. However, trials with a target color switch showed such effects only in trials with role-reversal (distractor-to-target or target-to-distractor), whereas the positive priming (PP) effect in the target-repetition trials disappeared. Finally, Experiment 3 split trial processing into two phases by presenting the trial-wise color cue only after the stimulus objects had been recognized. We found recognition in every priming condition to be faster than in control trials. We were hence led to the conclusion that PP is strongly affected by perception, in contrast to NP which emerges during selection, i.e., the two effects cannot be explained by a single mechanism

Naturalizing institutions: Evolutionary principles and application on the case of money
In recent extensions of the Darwinian paradigm into economics, the replicator-interactor duality looms large. I propose a strictly naturalistic approach to this duality in the context of the theory of institutions, which means that its use is seen as being always and necessarily dependent on identifying a physical realization. I introduce a general framework for the analysis of institutions, which synthesizes Searle's and Aoki's theories, especially with regard to the role of public representations (signs) in the coordination of actions, and the function of cognitive processes that underly rule-following as a behavioral disposition. This allows to conceive institutions as causal circuits that connect the population-level dynamics of interactions with cognitive phenomena on the individual level. Those cognitive phenomena ultimately root in neuronal structures. So, I draw on a critical restatement of the concept of the meme by Aunger to propose a new conceptualization of the replicator in the context of institutions, namely, the replicator is a causal conjunction between signs and neuronal structures which undergirds the dispositions that generate rule-following actions. Signs, in turn, are outcomes of population-level interactions. I apply this framework on the case of money, analyzing the emotions that go along with the use of money, and presenting a stylized account of the emergence of money in terms of the naturalized Searle-Aoki model. In this view, money is a neuronally anchored metaphor for emotions relating with social exchange and reciprocity. Money as a meme is physically realized in a replicator which is a causal conjunction of money artefacts and money emotions. --Generalized Darwinism,institutions,replicator/interactor,Searle,Aoki,naturalism,memes,emotions,money
