In Experiment 2, we assessed how much participants (n = 301) would be willing to pay for stimuli oriented in a more versus less preferred orientation.
The results in Fig. 3A show that stimuli oriented between 15° and 45° away from vertical were effective adaptors for generating the well-studied tilt aftereffect (2-sided t-test, p<.05, not corrected).
Nevertheless, when considering only one of our two playback sessions, we found that our monkeys also gave lateralized responses to one of the four heterospecific stimuli, orienting their head to the left side after the playbacks of mangabey's threat calls, but showed no asymmetry for De Brazza monkeys.
Nor do I think Schumer could begin to explain why a demand-side stimulus package oriented toward employment, infrastructure and consumer spending will "work" in dealing with an economic crisis whose origins seem to be in the collapse of a housing bubble and the deleveraging of overstretched financial institutions.
The IELTS Test in this study provided a stimulus, which oriented students towards the study of productive skills, which is a positive step forward for the test takers' development of a rounded language proficiency in the four skills.
Specifically, multi-unit activity at recorded V2 sites was clearly modulated by the visual stimulus (0.50×10 oriented bars) even when the latter was entirely contained within the scotoma corresponding to the V1 lesion.
The "non-verbal stimuli" were oriented to the left only and could not be readily related to the vertical or horizontal axes.
Verbal stimuli were oriented to the left or to the right of the vertical plane, thus inevitably yielding the verbal codes "left" and "right".
We performed a functional magnetic resonance imaging experiment, where subjects viewed 3 groups of stimuli comprising oriented lines with different levels of recognizable high-order structure (none, collinearity, and meaning).
First, the effects are strongest for neurons and neuronal domains responsive to cardinal stimuli, in particular the vertically oriented stimuli; and second, when stimulating the hemifield contralateral to the recording (the noncooled hemifield), the cooling effects are negligible.
