Note and Comment
Baseball and the Judiciary - The acceptance by Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis of the position of supreme arbiter of professional baseball, as recently announced, raises questions of good taste if not of propriety. It has been generally assumed that Judges of the District Court of the United States have their hands amply full if they do the work incumbent upon them in a way befitting a judge of the United States. It may well be true that the salary provided by the Government is grossly inadequate, but we dare say that no one has considered that the remedy for such condition was to be found through outside jobs paying additional compensation
The impact of cafeteria feeding during lactation in the rat on novel object discrimination in the offspring
There is increasing evidence that hyperenergetic diets impact on memory in rodents. However, it is largely unknown how diets, such as a cafeteria diet (CD), that mimic a Western diet act on learning and memory, in particular when fed during early stages of development. Here, we fed lactating dams a cafeteria diet and exposed both male and female offspring to a novel object discrimination (NOD) task, a two-trial test of recognition memory in which rats exposed to two identical objects during a training/familiarisation trial can discriminate a novel from a familiar object during the subsequent choice trial. The choice trial was performed following inter-trial interval (ITI) delays of up to 4 h. Maternal diet did not impact on exploration of the objects by either sex during the familiarisation trial. Control males discriminated the novel from the familiar object indicating intact memory with an ITI of 1h, but not 2 or 4h. CD delayed this natural forgetting in male rats such that discrimination was also evident after a 2h ITI. In contrast, control females exhibited discrimination following both 1 and 2h ITIs, but CD impaired performance. In summary, the present study shows that maternal exposure to CD programmes NOD in the adult. In better performing females dietary programming interferes with NOD whereas NOD was improved in males after lactational CD feeding
Risk and Protective Factors Predictive of Sense of Coherence during Adolescence
This brief report presents a study undertaken to better understand the factors that are related to sense of coherence (SOC) levels among youth. Middle school students (N = 1619) reported on risk and protective factors across ecological domains. Analyses revealed that social support, anger expression, family conflict and neighborhood cohesion were predictors of SOC for both males and females. Community views regarding gang membership was a predictor of SOC only for males, while age was a predictor of SOC only for females. The findings suggest a resiliency and ecological framework may be helpful in understanding SOC in youth
