Antecedents of the new mechanism focused almost exclusively on etiological, causal relations.
Since e.g. the AF for smoking status was similar in the model containing and not containing hypertension, hypertension does not seem to be exclusively on the causal pathway of the effect of smoking on cardiovascular disease.
Functionalist theories of all varieties — whether analytic or empirical, FSIT or functional specification — attempt to characterize mental states exclusively in relational, specifically causal, terms.
That also confirms the finding that frontal-to-parietal top-down causal streams exclusively appeared during voluntary attentional control of orienting.
Her short, elegantly written book repeatedly shows that strong families help to keep religious practice alive, and that too many people see a causal connection running exclusively in the opposite direction.In other words, it is widely assumed that people form large families because they hold traditional beliefs, and that when they abandon those beliefs, they stop creating those families.
His view might seem extravagant upon first hearing, but underlying it is the thought that if one is to discern the truth of the world, it might be advantageous to apprehend the world, not exclusively in scientific, mechanical and causal terms, but rather in aesthetic, analogical, expressive and metaphorical terms that require a sense of taste for their discernment.
RP is also called rod cone dystrophy because of the sequential degeneration of rod and cone photoreceptors, though the causal mutations affect genes exclusively expressed in rods in the vast majority of cases.
Given the arguments presented in the current manuscript, we need to state that the natural sciences, limited by the experimental scientific method (positivist), can know the human corporality exclusively as a material body, in their causal relations and as physical substances.
These results demonstrate that these causal streams along the DAN exclusively mediate voluntary covert orienting.
To summarize, using a novel pGC analysis on event-related fMRI data during Posner's paradigm and optimizing experimental and imaging parameters for pGC analysis, we confirmed the hypothesis, that frontal-to-parietal top-down causal streams along the DAN exclusively mediate voluntary orienting of attention.
