Head Position and Clause Boundary Effects in Reanalysis

Abstract: Reanalysis cost has been demonstrated to be influenced by the distance of the semantic head of the ambiguous phrase to the disambiguating region (Ferreira and Henderson, 1991). F&H’s original account, based on the assumption of decaying activation levels of multiple thematic frames, as well as its recently updated version (Ferreira & Henderson, in press), will be discussed in the light of empirical evidence from an eye-tracking study on German NP- vs. elliptic VP-coordination ambiguities. Head position was varied by using pre-nominal APs and post-nominal PPs or RCs.

How to apply the numbered head together learning model to improve indonesian learning outcomes of middle school students

Abstract: This research is a classroom action research that aims to determine whether the cooperative learning Numbered Head Together (NHT) can improve students’ learning outcome in Indonesian course. The subjects of this study were 45 students of class VII A of SMP Negeri 8 Palopo in the even semester of the 2018/2019 academic year. This research was carried out in two cycles, and each cycle consists of six meetings. Data collection was carried out using learning outcomes tests and observations. The data collected were analyzed using quantitative analysis, and the observation data were analyzed using qualitative analysis. The results showed that the average score of students in the first cycle was 40.02, with a standard deviation of 20.21. while in the second cycle, the average score was 68.26, with a standard deviation of 12.00. It shows that classical student learning outcomes have been achieved. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that with the implementation of cooperative learning NHT in the learning process, the learning outcomes, attendance, readiness, and activeness of students can increase.

Document management system

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To relieve the work for selecting a phrase used for a head line in constructing a document database, and to provide the selection of the phrase with an objectivity by reducing personal difference in selecting the word. SOLUTION: Document/data including phrases relating to a trouble are inputted through a document input means 1, and a process generating the document/ data is identified by a process classification means 2. In a document analysis means 4, the phrases included in the document/data are collated with a model- related terminology database DB2 to extract candidates of phrases used for a trouble model. A trouble model determination means 5 determines the trouble model by using the candidates of the phrases, and correlates a trouble model ID for identifying the determined trouble model with the document/data to register the document/data in a document database DB1.

A theory of mind is in the head, not the heart

Abstract: menced these displays, including vocal "threats," when food was introduced into the test, and especially when the image of their hands came close to that of the food. (Menzel et al. 1985, p. 216) One account of this difference between chimpanzees and monkeys is that the latter simply do not realize that the hands they see in the mirror are their own (see Gallup 1991). C&S assert that mirror self-recognition is a narrow definition and that there must "be more than one criterion by which to measure the ways individuals in any species recognize themselves" (p. 174). The important issue, however, is not whether there are other ways that species can perceive themselves, but whether they can conceive of themselves at all. As C&S acknowledge, even the immune system shows a rudimentary form of self-recognition in terms of being able to identify and respond to foreign proteins. Likewise, many different species undoubtedly have a proprioceptive sense of self that makes it possible to take into account their own movement-induced experiences. But self-perception does not guarantee self-conception (Butterworth (1992). I have suggested that the reason monkeys fail to recognize themselves in mirrors is because they cannot conceive of themselves, and I have developed a model that identifies a variety of additional criteria that could be used to cross-validate the presence (or absence) of self-conception in other species (Gallup 1983; 1985; 1991). Of course C&S are free to continue to minimize mirror data, but the fact remains that I predicted their basic findings about the inability of monkeys to reason about mental states (either in themselves or other monkeys) many years ago (Gallup 1982). Not only does my model provide an account of their data, but it makes a number of other predictions (both between and within species) that have begun to receive support from the elegant work of Povinelli and his colleagues (e.g., Povinelli & deBlois 1992b; Povinelli et al. 1990; 1991; 1992a; 1992b).
