Moreover, high familiar odors and faces were better remembered than low familiar ones, indicating an important role of semantic knowledge on recognition proficiency for both modalities.
Our results that conditioned media from novel bacteria override the stimulatory effect of familiar bacteria and suppress the feeding response and that ADF is active only on familiar bacteria indicate that perception of the smell and/or the taste of novel bacteria suppresses feeding activation on novel food by inhibiting the activity of ADF or its upstream neurons.
Furthermore, Lawson [4] showed that people can recognise small-scale 3D models of familiar objects, indicating that haptics can generalise across unusual sizes.
In contrast, the AT- and asarone-treated mice showed an elevated preference to the novel object over the familiar one, indicating they had substantial retention memory (Fig. S6T).
Forgetting should be apparent, conversely, in an increase in exploration of familiar stimuli, indicating the animal is treating the old stimuli as new.
The last phase consisted of 10 practice trials that simulated the main task such that participants became familiar with indicating their confidence.
Talking about the weather, the notion of (momentary) state corresponds to the familiar values indicating the temperature, air-pressure, direction and speed of the wind, humidity, etcetera, all at one given moment.
In the pre- and post-implementation questionnaires, nurses were asked to rate their familiarity with relevant community resources on a scale of 1 to 5 (5 = extremely familiar, 1 = not familiar), and to indicate whether or not they had referred a patient to each of these resources in the past month (1 = yes, 0 = no or unsure).
The book reflects this sensation down to its very title, "Familiar," a word that indicates the normal, of course, the commonplace, but also the supernatural, the witchy.
It creates that slightly uncomfortable, but now familiar feeling which usually indicates that Facebook has just taken another major step towards its overarching goal of "making the world more open and connected".
