Attraction comes from many sources. Attentional and comparative processes in decoy effects

The attraction effect emerges when adding a seemingly irrelevant option(decoy) to a binary choice shifts preference towardsa target option. This suggests that choice behaviour is dynamic, i.e., choice values are developed during deliberation, rather thanmanifesting some pre-existing preference set. Whereas several models of multialternative and multiattribute decision makingconsider dynamic choice processes as crucial to explain the attraction effect, empirically investigating the exact nature of suchprocesses requires complementing choice output with other data. In this study, we focused on asymmetrically dominateddecoys (i.e., decoys that are clearly dominated only by the target option) to examine the attentional and comparative processesresponsible for the attraction effect. Through an eye-tracker paradigm, we showed that the decoy option can affect subjects’preferences in two different and not mutually exclusive ways: by focusing the attention on the salient option and the dominanceattribute, and by increasing comparisons with the choice dominant pattern.Although conceptually and procedurally distinct,both pathways for decoy effects produce an increase in preferencesfor the target option, in line with attentional and dynamicmodels of decision making. Eye-tracking data provide further details to theverification of such models, by highlighting thecontext-dependent nature of attention and the development of similarity-driven competitive decisional processes

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF STUDENTS’ READING

Abstract:The objective of this research is to find out whether there is anysignificant difference of students’ reading comprehension achievement betweenthe students who are taught through NHT technique and those through PRtechnique. The research was conducted at SMAN 1 Seputih Raman, LampungTengah. Two classes were taken as the sample of the research; class XI IPA 4 andclass XI IPS 4. Pretest-posttest control group design was applied in this research.The result in both experimental classes showed that there was a significantincrease of students’ reading comprehension achievement after they were taughtthrough NHT technique and PR technique (p0.05; p= .000). The data analysisshowed that the mean score in the experimental class increased from 61.48 into73.81. Meanwhile, the mean score in the control class increased from 58.50 into66.92. It can be concluded that NHT technique is more effective to help thestudents improve their reading ability than PR technique is. Thus, it suggests thatthe English teacher should apply a technique especially NHT technique inteaching reading comprehension as one of alternative techniques.Keywords: Reading comprehension achievement, Numbered Heads Together(NHT) technique, Predictive Reading (PR) technique

Appunti sui brevia di XI e XII secolo

Among the early middle ages documentary heritage, really poor is the quantity of brevia we can examine; but it doesn't mean this kind of record was unusual, as is shown by some formulae of Chartularium langobardicum (10th century). Nevertheless, they begun to frequently appear since mid 11th Century, in order to resolve new claims that changes in politics and social relations brought out (feudal relations as well as, later, legal activity of cities government, and overall extra-judicial settlement of disputes). This survey has the purpose to analyze summarily the phase, between XIth and XIIth Century, in wich recording per breve became a normal option in these circumstances, when a clean pattern was developed by notarial culture - also provided of courts experience - giving breve a form that remind, in some respects, the previous pleas writing schemes

How Soundtracks Shape What We See: Analyzing the Influence of Music on Visual Scenes Through Self-Assessment, Eye Tracking, and Pupillometry

This article presents two studies that deepen the theme of how soundtracks shape our interpretation of audiovisuals. Embracing a multivariate perspective, Study 1 (N = 118) demonstrated, through an online between-subjects experiment, that two different music scores (melancholic vs. anxious) deeply affected the interpretations of an unknown movie scene in terms of empathy felt toward the main character, impressions of his personality, plot anticipations, and perception of the environment of the scene. With the melancholic music, participants felt empathy toward the character, viewing him as more agreeable and introverted, more oriented to memories than to decisions, while perceiving the environment as cozier. An almost opposite pattern emerged with the anxious music. In Study 2 (N = 92), we replicated the experiment in our lab but with the addition of eye-tracking and pupillometric measurements. Results of Study 1 were largely replicated; moreover, we proved that the anxious score, by increasing the participants’ vigilance and state of alert (wider pupil dilation), favored greater attention to minor details, as in the case of another character who was very hard to be noticed (more time spent on his figure). Results highlight the pervasive nature of the influence of music within the process of interpretation of visual scenes

This causes students to still be confused about the organs of human blood circulation and students' interest in the material is still lacking because students always find it difficult. The material of the circulatory system requires appropriate learning media to provide an understanding of the concept of the material. This is the basis for conducting this research. The purpose of this research is to produce a product in the form of audio-visual learning media based on Google Sites for science learning material for the fifth grade of elementary school human circulatory system. Google Sites is a simple web-based platform. This learning media contains various media elements such as video, audio, and images. This research is a design and development research that uses ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) procedures. This research involves material experts, media experts, linguists, learning experts, teachers and students. The results of this study are the assessments of material experts with a feasibility percentage of 73 (%), media experts with a feasibility percentage of 84 (%), linguists with a feasibility percentage of 88 (%), and learning experts with a feasibility percentage of 70 (%). The use of audio-visual media based on Google Sites also received a positive response from teachers and fifth grade students of SD Negeri Tirtayasa who were participants in this study, with a percentage value of media eligibility of 85 (%) from teachers and 88.5 (%) from students. Based on the results of the assessment, the audio-visual media based on Google Sites for science learning material on the human circulatory system is very good and can be used in learning in V grade elementary schools
