We examined the complexity effects of stimuli and tasks on temporal illusory conjunction in the Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) tasks. Subjects were asked to report the partially defined target. We found that error patterns greatly depended on the visual complexity of stimuli. In the case of visually complex stimuli such as Kanji characters consisting of many strokes, pre-target intrusion errors were dominant. In contrast, post-target intrusion errors mainly occurred for visually simple stimuli such as alphabetic letters. Moreover, when target letters were not defined by a specific feature, pre-target intrusion errors were dominant for alphabetic letters. These results were discussed in view of the limited capacity of visual attention.

In order to reduce the influence of coupling capacitance variations on cable voltage measurement, this paper proposes a self-compensating non-intrusive ring-type AC voltage sensor based on capacitive coupling. A theoretical model of the sensor was established, and the influence of parasitic capacitance changes on sensor output was analyzed. Furthermore, a theoretical analysis shows that the parasitic capacitance between the external cable and the sensing probe, as well as between the ground and the sensing probe, will significantly affect the sensitivity of the sensor and increases the measurement error.

This commentary focuses on the clinical utility of plasma amyloid-β (Aβ) 42/40 to detect semantic intrusion errors in amnestic mild cognitive impairment, as investigated Curiel Cid et al. in a recent issue of the . This commentary highlights the importance of testing the sensitivity of plasma Aβ to clinical symptoms in the quest to develop a comprehensive definition of AD that incorporates both biological precursors and clinical consequences.

Underground mines are considered one of the riskiest facilities for human activities due to numerous accidents and geotechnical failures recorded worldwide over the last century, which have resulted in unsafe labor conditions, poor health outcomes, injuries, and fatalities. One significant cause of these accidents is the inadequate or nonexistent capacity for the real-time monitoring of safety conditions in underground mines. In this context, new emerging technologies linked to the Industry 4.

Background: Gaps persist in the data on diets and on the validity of dietary assessment methods in youth in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) due to costs constraints. Although computer vision-assisted dietary assessment tools have been proposed, limited evidence exists on their validity in LMICs.
Objectives: This study aimed to validate FRANI (Food Recognition Assistance and Nudging Insights), a mobile phone application with computer vision-assisted dietary assessment, against weighed records (WRs) and compare with 24-h recalls (24HR), in female youth in Ghana.
Folk Intuitions About Free Will and Moral Responsibility: Evaluating the Combined Effects of Misunderstandings About Determinism and Motivated Cognition.

Article Synopsis
- - The study explored how punishment desires and comprehension errors impact people's views on free will and moral responsibility within deterministic frameworks, revealing that these factors influence intuitions about determinism significantly.
- - A large-scale survey of Japanese participants indicated that while misunderstandings of causal determination had minimal effects, conflating determinism with epiphenomenalism markedly affected responses, resulting in more incompatibilist beliefs.
- - The findings highlighted a strong link between beliefs in free will/responsibility and desires for punishment, aligning with previous research that suggests increased desires can lead to stronger compatibilist reactions, though a clear causal relationship remains to be established.
