Investigations of, for example, exploration behavior [8], [9] information acquisition [10], dominance [11], and personality [12], [13] can involve de facto enrichment and provide data comparable to studies of other captive animals.
In a large comparative parrot study, for example, exploration (latency to touch a novel object) varied depending on the natural ecological conditions of each species (Mettke-Hofmann et al. 2002).
For example, exploration of human saliva from obese versus normal-weight individuals showed that while saliva was able to alter the aromatic properties of wine, only a few microbial taxa were likely to be responsible for this [ 10].
Thus, for example, explorations were disjoined from problem solving but both were combined with student achievement and various grade levels.
For example, explorations of the importance of norms of fairness in economic contexts (e.g. Kahneman/Knetsch/Thaler 1986; Fehr/Schmidt 1999) raise questions about the relation between the norms of fairness favored by political philosophers and the norms observable in people's behavior.
Of course, there are other considerations regarding response styles, particularly those that are culture (country) specific, as pointed out by a reviewer of this paper (see Buckley, 2009, for an example exploration of this issue in the PISA program).
Further discussion of specific areas of technological development is provided in a variety of other articles: for example, seeelectronics; exploration; information processing.
The content of some of the workshops comprises high level Durham University research filtered down to classroom level, for example an exploration of the meaning of symbols used in the Gospels.
Some of the presentations I attended I found hard to identify the key takeaways, for example an exploration of what the central characters of three fiction books from the mid-1900s could tell us about corporate governance.
As DNA is employed to serve as a smart building block, an increasing interest has been devoted to the development of different DNA-based machines for the specific purpose, for example, the exploration of inter- or intramolecular interaction.
Concerning the latter two, INRRI will support mars-georeferencing of the EDM landing site, support potential precision lidar-based landing next to the EDM, support test & diagnostics of lasercom for data exchange among Mars orbit, Mars surface and Earth, and it will be a precursor for additional Mars surface retroreflectors, for example on exploration rovers.
