Arousal level changes constantly and it has a profound influence on performance during
everyday activities. Fluctuations in arousal are regulated by the autonomic nervous system, …

Steam injection is widely used as an enhanced oil recovery method for heavy oil fields;
however, its efficiency normally decreases in late injection stages. Recent studies have …

A fundamental problem in motor control is the coordination of complementary movement types
to achieve a common goal. As a common example, humans view moving objects through …

To track moving targets, humans move their eyes using both saccades and smooth pursuit.
If pursuit eye movements fail to accurately track the moving target, catch-up saccades are …

Results that point to animals’ metacognitive capacity bear a heavy burden, given the potential
for competing behavioral descriptions. In this article, formal models are used to evaluate …

The uncertainty response has grounded the study of metacognition in nonhuman animals.
Recent research has explored the processes supporting uncertainty monitoring in monkeys. It …

Some studies of nonhuman animals’ metacognitive capacity encourage competing low-level,
behavioral descriptions of trial–decline responses by animals in uncertainty-monitoring …

The uncertainty response has been influential in studies of human perception, and it is
crucial in the growing research literature that explores animal metacognition. However, the …

Researchers have begun to evaluate whether nonhuman animals share humans’ capacity
for metacognitive monitoring and self-regulation. Using perception, memory, numerical, and …

To explore proper extractive solvents and to design an optimized separation process it is
highly imperative to understand the molecular-based phenomena governing the solutes …
