The KPT requires parallel processing of discrete (pick-out) and continuous (reading) dual tasks.
The Kana Pick-out Test (KPT), which uses Kana or Japanese symbols that represent syllables, requires parallel processing of discrete (pick-out) and continuous (reading) dual tasks.
To generate revC3 and C/A clones, cells were electroporated with 20 μg pTRE2hygRevC3 or pTRE2hygRevC3 C/A, respectively and cultured in the presence of 500 μg/ml hygromycin (Sigma, Sigma-Aldrich Ltd., Gillingham, UK) in 10 cm dishes for ∼2 weeks and ∼100 discrete colonies picked when visible.
The need for different diversity metrics for libraries consisting of discrete molecules ("cherry picking") vs libraries formed from combinatorial R-group enumeration (array-based selection) is discussed.
Cultures were heterogeneous and were passaged four times before discrete colonies were picked.
The consensus seems to be that QST, although demonstrating a high specificity, has a low sensitivity that does not always pick up discrete sensory abnormalities as well as the clinical examination does.
Pick something discrete and effective.
To make it do what you want, you have to break down the behavior into discrete components—swim over here, pick up that hoop, leap through the air then offer a reward for each step.

"When outsiders use tweezers to pick out the discrete parts of your culture that are worthy of their attention, it feels like a violation," the outlet noted.
80, 81 Neuropsychiatric testing is helpful because it can pick up the discrete signs of short-term memory loss, inattention, and difficulties with activities of daily living associated with MMND.
