The hadrosaurs of the Late Cretaceous are preceded in the fossil record by a long series of forms that show the incremental acquisition of their specializations, and together with hadrosaurs these forms comprise the group Ornithopoda.
Findings indicated not just the incremental acquisition of conceptual understanding equated with cognitive change but that the level of understanding might also be positively influenced by the students' length of exposure to computer-mediated learning practices.
Or to investigate under what conditions natural selection favors fixed, non-plastic traits (which do not vary across individuals), cue-driven-switch plasticity (innate instructions for adaptive behavioral development based on experience), or developmental selection (the incremental acquisition of adaptive behavior based on experience).
The fronto-cerebellar brain system plays a crucial part in the automatization of learned motor sequences and the incremental acquisition of movements into well-executed behavior.
For a Belgian hospital, the budget impact model reports that the incremental acquisition costs of SEDs are offset by the savings from fewer NSIs.
This observation suggests that incremental learning during the acquisition phase may be accelerated or improved in rapamycin-treated PDAPP transgenic mice.
The OTB tasks designed to assess these specific behaviors included Incremental Repeated Acquisition (IRA), Progressive Ratio (PR), Conditioned Position Responding (CPR), and Delayed Matching-to-Sample (DMTS), respectively.
Twenty-one adult Sprague-Dawley rats (11 male, 10 female) were trained to perform fixed consecutive number (FCN), incremental repeated acquisition (IRA), and progressive ratio (PR) tasks for a minimum of 15 months prior to receiving anesthesia.
The present experiment was designed to characterize differences between adolescent (post-natal day (PND) 34 60) and adult (PND 70 96) BALB/c mice using a response-initiated spatial discrimination reversal (SDR) and incremental repeated acquisition of response chains (IRA) procedures.
Finally, the incremental knowledge acquisition process with RDR corresponds to an incremental development of the corresponding default theory D. In D, if an expert disagrees with the returned consequence of the chosen default with priority n, s/he will need to add to the theory a new default with a priority larger than n.
