Hence, a non-verbal task (the operation span) was added to the battery to clarify any issues that bilinguals may have had on the reading span task and assess whether data from this task corroborated the initial findings.
The cumulative effect observed across a broad range of tasks corroborates previous evidence, and reinforces that rivastigmine may be an effective therapy in the treatment of severe AD.
The BN, Lewis, and WKY rats performed the short-term memory task well, corroborating findings for WKY rats [ 101] although Clement and colleagues [ 100] found no improvement across trials in a similar task using WKY rats.
The SPM comparison between the two cognitive task conditions corroborates these differences showing significantly greater activation in frontal, parietal, cingulate, thalamus and hippocampus when the cognitive task was given with placebo than with MP (Figure 3).
The BN rats acquired the standard Morris water escape task very quickly, corroborating their good spatial learning abilities found in other studies (Morris task [ 12, 62] and hole board task [ 63]), whereas the F344 rats were slightly slow to acquire the task, as reported earlier [ 11], but by the end of testing they had attained a similar performance level as the other three strains.
Observation of mother-child interaction over 15-minutes will be video-recorded (at 24 months C.A). during a series of structured tasks to corroborate parent reported data on child behavioural and emotional problems.
One of the task force agents corroborated Mr. White's account, according to Mr. Rains's letters to Mr. Schools.
Our initial task was to corroborate these results and to investigate the underlying structure of the catalytic reaction network (the methods are described in detail in Additional file 1).
The finding that activity in LMPFC is positively correlated with time on task is strongly corroborated by a recent analysis of BOLD data showing such positive correlation in a large group of subjects (N = 252; Yarkoni et al. 2009).
Similar accuracy and dissociation patterns suggest magnitude comparison of number words to be more similar in complexity to magnitude comparison of Arabic digits than to magnitude comparison of animals in aphasic patients and corroborating our second task-related hypothesis.
