Further work is required to establish if these measures would have a beneficial effect in reducing the language hurdle.
In the MMSE 11 to 15 group, the greatest effects were in the language, attention, and orientation domains, with lesser effects on memory, praxis, and construction, and no effect on the remaining domains.
In this cohort of patients with more severe baseline impairment, the largest treatment effect was seen in the language domain (effect size = 0.253) (Table 2).
The account based on the mechanism of lexically-guided retuning thus explains both the positive effect of subtitles in the language of the film and the negative effect of subtitles in the perceiver's native language.
This is at least partly the result of French official policy, which in effect excludes the language from primary and secondary schools, though the poor economic opportunities in Brittany also play a part.
This made it possible to compare the effects of subtitles in the language spoken in the videos with the effects of subtitles in the observers' native language.
The ADAS-CogIRT methodology also allows separate evaluation of treatment effects in the memory, language, and praxis domains, which can potentially provide additional information on the pharmacological properties of treatments and facilitate development of improved therapies.
But there is no reason to think that the magistrates or the appeal judges decided not to give effect to the language in Garner v Burr.
Effects programs written in the language take advantage of the GPU's skill at solving a problem by processing lots of little chunks of information simultaneously rather than attempting to process a few big chunks at speed.
For the MMSE 6 to 10 stratum, treatment effects were greatest in the language, visuospatial ability, and construction domains but relatively small for the remaining domains.
