Temporal attention affects contrast response function by response gain.

Orienting attention to a specific point in time has been shown to improve the contrast sensitivity at the attended time point and impair it earlier or later. This phenomenon could be explained by temporal attention increasing the effective contrast of the target presented at the attended time point which leads to changes in contrast psychometric function by contrast gain. Another explanation is that temporal attention multiplicatively amplifies the amplitude of behavioral or neural response to contrast, resulting in alterations in contrast psychometric function by response gain.

Key Factors, Planning Strategy and Policy for Low-Carbon Transport Development in Developing Cities of China.

Exploring key impact factors and their effects on urban residents' transport carbon dioxide (CO) emissions is significant for effective low-carbon transport planning. Researchers face the model uncertainty problem to seek a rational and better explanatory model and the key variables in the model set containing various factors after they are arranged and combined. This paper uses the Bayesian Model Averaging method to solve the above problem, explore the key variables, and determine their relative significance and averaging effects.
