Dethier reported that this sensitization could be 'discharged' by application of a water droplet to the mouthparts; however it is unclear whether this discharge effect resulted from a sensory or more central process.
This is especially related to the cost-benefit issues in patients were the benefit might be reduced by aging of the auditory system which is a more central process, together with general health problems which might be affected by any surgical procedure.
Such greater complexity in stimulus conditions and behavior may also aid in monitoring not merely the state of the receptor organ but more central nervous processes which are the focus of assault by many known toxic substances.
As such, one could hypothesize that greater effect sizes may be observed if treatment strategies would focus more on central processes [ 2, 19].
As with RT measures, changes in accuracy with set size reflect changes in search behavior, while changes in the overall level of accuracy reflect more central or peripheral processes.
The consistent elevation in mortality based on a weekend admission however implicate a more central structural or process measure, which is more fundamental than the role of trainees.
However, in recent years, it has become readily apparent that the immune system, especially T lymphocytes, are more central to the process than previously thought [ 4].
These observations lead me to wonder if the authors are focusing on molecules that play an ancillary role in representing food abundance, to the exclusion of undiscovered molecules that are more central to this process.
We propose that auditory learning occurred in frequency-tuned processes in the periphery, precluding interactions with more central visual and audiovisual timing processes.
In addition to the feed-forward flow of signals from the hair cells to the more central cell areas that process the information to provide orientation, balance, and muscle tonus, a centrifugal pathway exists from the more central areas back to the sensory organs themselves.
