A query theory account of the attraction effect
No full textWe provide novel support for Query Theory, a reason-based decision framework, extending it to multialternative choices and applying it to the classic phenomenon known as the attraction effect. In Experiment 1 (N = 261), we generalised the two key metrics used in Query Theory from binary to multialternative choices and found that reasons supporting the target option were generated earlier and in greater quantity than those supporting the competitor, as predicted by the theory. In Experiment 2 (N = 703), we investigated the causal relationships between reasoning and choices by exogenously manipulating the order in which participants generated their reasons. As predicted, the size of the attraction effect was a function of this query order manipulation. We also introduced a bidirectional reason coding protocol to measure the valence of reasons, which confirmed support for Query Theory. We suggest the Query Theory framework can be useful for studying the high-level deliberation processes behind multialternative choices

A study of the acid lability and acute toxicity of dimethoxymethane in rats
No full textThe pH stability and acute oral toxicity of dimethoxymethane (DMM) in rats were studied, In in vitro studies, DMM was found to be stable in artificial gastric juice at pH 2.5 and above but readily hydrolyzed at pH2 and below, with 1 mole of DMM producing approximately 1 mole of formaldehyde and 2 moles of methanol. DMM incubated in sealed, excised stomachs appeared to equilibrate with the external incubation fluid over a 24-hour period without significant hydrolysis, In the toxicity study, three groups of female rats (n = 5) were administered, by gavage, phosphate-buffered saline (control), DMM (31 mmoles/kg body weight [bw]/day), or methanol (MeOH) (30 mmoles/kg bw/day), respectively, for 3 consecutive days and then sacrificed on day 5, Transient ataxia lasting about 30 minutes was observed in animals following DMM administration, increased urine volume was observed in the DMM group at the end of days 4 and 5, Markedly elevated level of formic acid was present in the urine of the MeOH group at days 1, 2, and 3, but not in the DMM group, Urinary ascorbic acid levels were increased In the DMM group on days 1, 2 and 3, and returned to baseline level at days 4 and 5, Microscopic examination detected no abnormal histological changes in the liver and kidneys of MeOH- or DMM-treated animals, No treatment effects were observed on the following endpoints: organ weights (liver, heart, thymus, kidneys), serum corticosterone, serum chemistry profile, hematology, hepatic phase 1 and phase 2 mixed-function oxidase activities, hepatic and serum thiobarbituric acid, hepatic glutathione, urinary protein, and urinary N-acetylglucosaminidase activity, These observations suggested that hydrolysis of DMM in the stomach required a gastric acidity below pH 2,5, At higher DW, intact DMM readily penetrated the stomach and therefore likely reached the circulation and other body tissues. There was no significant hydrolysis of orally administered DMM, and the acute effects were limited to transient ataxia and biochemical responses in the liver.PT: J; CR: *ACGIH, THRESH VAL TLVS CHEM *CCAC, 1993, GUID CAR US EXP AN *HSDB, 1998, HSDB *IARC, 1995, IARC MON EV CARC RIS, V62, P217 *US EPA, 1998, CHEM HAZ DAT AV STUD *USP, 1995, US PHARM, V23 BENINI L, 1995, GUT, V36, P825 BURCHELL B, 1981, METHOD ENZYMOL, V77, P169 BURKE MD, 1985, BIOCHEM PHARMACOL, V34, P3337 CHIVERTON SG, 1989, ALIMENT PHARM THERAP, V3, P403 CHU I, 1992, ORGANOHALOGEN COMPOU, V10, P17 DODGE L, 1994, NTIDDE94006949 GARGAS ML, 1989, TOXICOL APPL PHARM, V98, P87 GRADY S, 1986, J ANAL TOXICOL, V10, P1 HABIG WH, 1974, J BIOL CHEM, V249, P7130 JONES AW, 1993, CLIN CHEM, V39, P1837 KAO CH, 1998, J NUCL MED, V39, P1798 KONTUREK JW, 1993, SCAND J GASTROENTERO, V28, P401 LUBET RA, 1985, MUTAT RES, V142, P127 MAHE S, 1995, GASTROEN CLIN BIOL, V19, P20 MARICQ MM, 1998, 216 AM CHEM SOC NAT, V43, P578 MCLAUCHLAN G, 1989, GUT, V30, P573 MCMARTIN KE, 1980, AM J MED, V68, P414 POON R, 1992, P 4 ANN M INT SOC ST, P146 POON R, 1994, J BIOCHEM TOXICOL, V9, P297 POON R, 1995, INHAL TOXICOL, V7, P1195 ROGERS JM, 1993, TERATOLOGY, V47, P175 SAKANASHI TM, 1996, TERATOLOGY, V54, P198 SCHENKMAN JB, 1967, MOL PHARMACOL, V3, P113 TOMILINA LA, 1984, GIG TR PROF ZABOL, V6, P27 VANHERCK H, 1991, LAB ANIM, V25, P325 VINET B, 1987, CLIN CHEM, V33, P2204 YAGI K, 1982, LIPID PEROXIDE BIOL, P232; NR: 33; TC: 4; J9: INT J TOXICOL; PG: 7; GA: 331DTSource type: Electronic(1
