Thanks to the slight leftward turn of her face, a pearl can be seen suspended from her ear, like a stray satellite.
Thus, e.g., if a unit fires strongly for a slight leftward movement of the rat's head, but fires independently of the center-of-mass motion, BCD will be high, reflecting this relationship.
The echolocation call of Chaerephon major is a frequency modulation (FM) call, which is characterized by steep, linear pulses of highly variable frequencies and a slight leftward leaning (Fig. 1a).
Therefore, like Longo and Lourenco, a leftward deviation might be expected.
In general, although there was a slight leftward bias across thresholds, these differences were not particularly large.
However, beginning at P12 and thereafter, a marked leftward deviation from the lognormal distribution was observed, indicating a regression in the number of elongated structures by fission events.
Although this effect did not reach significance, the mean leftward deviation (0.52 mm) is comparable to that found in previous studies [e.g. 32].
Similarly, in a study examining associations between various measures of pseudoneglect, Luh [27] found that most yielded a leftward deviation – but there was no significant correlation between the measures.
Approximately 15 degrees of mild leftward deviation was noted.
Analysis of these data revealed a small but significant population pseudoneglect, with mean leftward deviation of 0.72% of the given line (one-sample t(42) = 4.27, p < .001).001
Although PI-103 appeared to cause a slight leftward shift in the concentration response curve, this effect was not statistically significant and so this compound did not alter the EC50 (control: 3.7±0.09 nM; PI-103-treated: 2.1±0.1 nM).
