Research has shown that the comparable truth baseline technique outperforms the small talk with respect to the elicitation of cues to deception. However, their impact on observers' accuracy has not been evaluated yet. In this experiment, participants ( = 74) watched ten interviews where senders either lied or told the truth about a set of tasks. Half of the interviews were conducted with a comparable truth baseline, the other half with a small talk baseline. As predicted, results showed that observers in the comparable truth baseline condition outperformed participants in the small talk baseline condition in terms of total accuracy rates. The article sheds light on the impact of the two baseline techniques in distinguishing truth-tellers from liars and discourages the use of a small talk baseline. It also provides insights for future studies.

The applause sign (AS) is a recognized phenomenon observed in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and other neurological conditions where individuals produce over three claps following a request to clap only thrice after a demonstration. In this study, we introduced a novel linguistic phenomenon termed the oral applause sign (OAS) associated with the AS. The OAS is characterized by increased repetition counts of Japanese repetitive onomatopoeic words, such as uttering "pata-pata-pata" instead of the expected "pata-pata.

Hearing is an active process in which listeners must detect and identify sounds, segregate and discriminate stimulus features, and extract their behavioral relevance. Adaptive changes in sound detection can emerge rapidly, during sudden shifts in acoustic or environmental context, or more slowly as a result of practice. Although we know that context- and learning-dependent changes in the sensitivity of auditory cortical (ACX) neurons support many aspects of perceptual plasticity, the contribution of subcortical auditory regions to this process is less understood.

Genetic, cell biology and autopsied brain tissue studies indicate that deficits in the SORL1-retromer complex play a critical role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). SORL1 is an endosomal receptor that interacts with the retromer heterotrimer core complex consisting of VPS26-VPS35-VPS29. Together, SORL1-retromer regulate endosomal recycling of several AD-related cargos such as amyloid precursor protein.

Small registers of spin qubits in silicon can exhibit hour-long coherence times and exceeded error-correction thresholds. However, their connection to larger quantum processors is an outstanding challenge. To this end, spin qubits with optical interfaces offer key advantages: they can minimize the heat load and give access to modular quantum computing architectures that eliminate cross-talk and offer a large connectivity.

This case report discusses a unique presentation of an artery of Percheron (AOP) infarct resulting in rapidly resolving internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO) without classical signs. This is the case of a 70-year-old male patient who presented to a community Emergency Department following acute code stroke activation. Physical exam and imaging studies including non-contrast CT, CT angiography, CT perfusion, and MRI were performed.
