    This board-book version of LM turns out to be quite creative. Ratoncete comes from school every afternoon and goes through the forest looking for adventures. He apparently blasts a horn into the ear of the sleeping lion. Don Leon wants to spank him as a result, but Ratoncete offers an apology, not an offer of help. Later, he happens upon the lion in his trap of ropes. 8 pages, counting both covers. 6½" x 9".Language note: SpanishNo Autho

    Glucose modulates event-related potential components of recollection and familiarity in healthy adolescents.

    Introduction Behavioural evidence supports the notion that oral glucose ingestion enhances recognition memory judgements based on recollection, but not familiarity. The present study sought to clarify and extend upon these behavioural findings by investigating the influence of glucose administration on event-related potential (ERP) components that are thought to be differentially mediated by recollection and familiarity processes in healthy adolescents. Methods In a within-subjects design, participants performed a recognition memory task, during which time electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded, subsequent to ingestion of either (a) glucose or (b) placebo in a counterbalanced order. Results Response times during the recognition memory task were observed to be faster for the glucose condition, relative to a placebo control. Further, glucose ingestion was associated with an enhanced left parietal old/new ERP effect (a marker of recollection) and an enhanced mid-frontal old/new ERP effect (known to be mediated by familiarity). Discussion These findings (a) support the results of previous research that the ‘glucose memory facilitation effect’ can be extended to healthy adolescents, but (b) suggest that glucose enhances both the recollection and familiarity components of recognition memory. The observed ERP profile has important implications for the proposal that glucose specifically targets the hippocampus in modulating cognitive performance

    Markets Equilibrium: The Is-Lm Model

    . The purpose of this study is to analyze how the concept of markets equilibrium: the IS-LM Model. This research uses library research method by using reference sources from books and journals according to the theme. The author uses a qualitative method which is explained graphically, namely the market balance of the IS-LM model where the focus is on money and goods markets associated with macroeconomics where researchers take the side of investors. The results of this study are that the balance in the economy is the point where the IS and LM curves intersect. This point provides an interest rate (r) and income level (Y) that satisfies the equilibrium conditions that occur in the goods market and money market. In other words, planned spending equals actual spending, and the demand for real money balances equals the supply. So that the IS-LM balance, it is stated that IS=LM

    Equilibrium and Disequilibrium Interpretations of the IS-LM Model

    No full text
    There is a considerable tension in neoKeynesian macroeconomics as to whether the familiar IS-LM analysis should be interpreted as a description of equilibrium or disequilibrium. The present paper shows how the IS-LM model can be used for either purpose. The first section provides the preliminaries for the model of disequilibrium behavior that I will use. The second section lays out the sectoral notional and effective demands. The third section gives the equilibrium solution while the fourth and fifth sections give excess supply and excess demand solutions respectively

    [抄録]IS-LM モデルは、ヒックスによるケインズ経済学の因果関係を重視しながら要約したモデルと解釈することができる。IS-LM モデルの安定性分析はすでに研究成果があるが、1S-LM モデルの動学化はほとんど研究成果がない。本稿は IS-LM モデルの動学化を試みる。まず投資関数に資本ストックを取り入れ、資本蓄積と経済の変動を考える。次にカルドアモデルを考慮し、投資の予想収益率表の変化を仮定し、経済に循環が発生することを考察する。 [Abstract]In this paper, The author tries to build a Dynamical IS-LM Model. The lnvestment depends on two factors, one is the rate of interest, and the other is the rate of prosperity yield of the investment. I will focus on the second factor. As was shown by Kaldor, the rate of prosperity yield has nonlinear fluctuations. By means of this character, This study proposes an IS-LM model that generates a cycle.departmental bulletin pape

    Characterization of optimized Na+ and Cl? liquid membranes for use with extracellular, self-referencing microelectrodes

    No full text
    Self-referencing with ion-selective microelectrodes (ISMs) is a useful approach for monitoring near-real-time ion flux near single cells and across epithelia. While ISMs for H+, Ca2+, and K+ have been optimized for use with self-referencing, ISMs for two other primary inorganic ions, Na+ and Cl-, have not. In this study, we have characterized ISMs based on three Na+ ionophores (I, VI, and X) and one Cl- ionophore to assess their suitability for use with self-referencing. ISMs constructed with Na+ ionophore VI have short response times (approximately 100 ms) but possess nearly an order of magnitude less selectivity for Na+ over K+ than ISMs constructed with Na+ ionophore X. The Na+ ionophore X mixture was enhanced to give it a shorter response time while not compromising its selectivity. A Cl(-)-selective microelectrode was constructed and characterized with superior anionic selectivity compared with previously reported Cl- ISMs used with self-referencing. This Cl(-)-selective microelectrode, however, has a relatively slow response time (approximately 3 s), thus requiring changes to the self-referencing protocol. Self-referencing with these ISMs will enable near-real-time ion flux measurements for Na+ and Cl-
