Days before he was sentenced, one of Northington's lawyers, William Bowe, showed the jurors something they never saw during the six-month trial: images of Northington's brain.
It should be noted that the current experiment presented trial images sequentially, for a short (750 ms) period of time, with a visual mask (100 ms) presented in between.
CEM, Trial Imaging Consultant, is the Head of the Integrative Oncology Department at the BC Cancer Research Centre.
In the first three rounds of the NELSON trial, images were evaluated twice.
(Fig 1c, 2c) Intensity levels of trial images with significant PCO showed distribution with distinct peaks at varying levels of intensity.
As a further test of holistic processing, half of the trials have test images that are misaligned, as shown in rows 3 and 4 of Fig. 1.
In a planned comparison of image and sentence trials, images were more likely to be misattributed than sentences, F 1, 50) = 5.65, p <.03, ηp =.10.
Test image orientation was randomized across trials in each block (each block was randomly composed by 48 match 12 non-match trials for each image orientation).
For each trial, the image with all four empty boxes appeared on the screen for 500 ms, followed by the image of the green creature in a box, which would disappear as soon as a button was pressed.
RW participated in trial design, image analysis, data interpretation, and manuscript revision.
