Sentence examples for ambiguous judgements from inspiring English sources

This is consistent with previous findings within the false feedback literature that the influence of physiological feedback is greatest during ambiguous judgements [14] [16].

Increased tissue integrity significantly correlated with increased sensitivity to syntax as measured by ambiguous-unambiguous judgements in all three regions (all r ≥ 0.6, P < 0.05).

They also showed a more negative judgement of ambiguous locations in the judgement bias task (P < 0.05), indicating a more negative affective state, but did not show a greater sensitivity to loss of food rewards.

Patients showing increased activation here were also more sensitive to the presence of a syntactic ambiguity with greater numbers of unacceptable judgements to ambiguous compared with unambiguous sentences.

For the acceptability judgement task, we found that increasing sensitivity to syntactic ambiguity (i.e. more unacceptable judgements in ambiguous compared with unambiguous sentences) was associated with increasing activity primarily in left BA 45 (extending into BA 47) and right anterior superior temporal gyrus and insula (Table 5 and Fig. 4A).

For example, people in negative states attend to threats, retrieve negative memories, and make negative judgements about ambiguous stimuli more than happier people.

High numbers of unacceptable judgements to ambiguous items but few to unambiguous items is consistent with the effective processing of the syntactic cues present in the utterance.

The increase in unacceptable judgements for ambiguous sentences compared with unambiguous was smaller in patients with increased damage in the left inferior frontal gyrus.

Helpers compensated for lost abilities or facilitated the use of retained functions for example by offering support or reinforcing opinions when persons with dementia did not trust their own judgement, were ambiguous and had a hard time deciding what to do.

Similarly, a more negative judgement of ambiguous spatial stimuli has been reported in response to acute induction of a negative state through illumination of test apparatus with bright light, although this occurred only in rats that had been trained in low lighting levels then tested in bright light (Burman et al., 2009).

Moreover, reverse role errors correlated with performance on the acceptability judgement task (difference in unacceptable judgements between syntactically ambiguous and unambiguous; r = −0.71, P < 0.01)—an important confirmation of consistency across tasks in identifying participants with greater or lesser syntactic impairments.
