The specific contribution of object''''s origin on artifacts categorization

Gelman and Bloom found that adults and children's object naming was sensitive to how an object was created (man-made or not), but they did not reveal on which specific level of conceptual system this effect was. Using a free-naming task and a force-choice task, two experiments were conducted to test a hypothesis that this effect was specifically on domain level ("artifact/non-artifact" distinction). In Experiment 1, participants were asked to name shortly-depicted objects, rate their confidence, and report their reasons for each naming response. Results showed that most of the naming responses in "man-made" condition were in artifact domain, and most in "natural" condition were in non-artifact domain, although in both conditions names were very divergent on basic level. In Experiment 2, another group of participants were asked to choose one from two names (one in artifact domain and the other in non-artifact domain) to match the same shortly-depicted objects presented in the first experiment. Re-sults of Experiment 1 on domain level were replicated in Experiment 2. These convergent findings supported the hypothesis that the effect of object's origin is specifically on domain level of conceptual system of objects. Reasons explicitly reported for naming responses in Experiment 1 suggested that participants might automatically infer objects' functions in "man-made" condition but not in "natural" condition. Here the function-based hypothesis of artifacts classification is discussed.

自然管理与持续发展

自从1987年世界环境与发展委员会布伦特兰报告——《我们共同的未来》出版后,它已唤起若干次国际会议的召开.格罗宁根代表大会的目的是优先考虑并详尽阐述以往国际会议没有解决的一个关键性论题,该主题为《自然管理与持续发展》,主要解决如下9个议题:     

斯蒂芬·罗森伯格——继承性免疫疗法的先驱

《研究与开发》杂志1990年度科学家的桂冠授予了一名癌症研究前沿的科学家。美国每年死于癌症的人近50万。马里兰贝塞斯达美国国立癌症研究所的外科主任斯蒂芬·A·罗森伯格(Steven.A.Rosenberg)把他在手术室的技能与富有想象力、创造性以及偶尔引起争论的研究结合在了一起。罗森伯格曾是一种新疗法——继承性免疫疗法,亦称细胞转移疗法的先驱。从这种疗法的含意看,它包括从患者体内的免疫系统中取出细胞,改良它们使之更有效地对付患者的特定病症,而后把它们重新注入患者的免疫系统,攻击引起疾病的那部分细胞。     

Applications of Atomic and Molecular Theory to Calculations in Space Science and Engineering

A systematic elaboration is given on atomic and molecular theory problems encountered in dealing with space science and engineering. Three sections are presented in the paper on calculations for gas thermodynamic and transfer properties, characteristics of the optical radiation from the reentry' bodies, and the interaction between surfaces of man-made satellites and incident particles. Researches on them are much related to the fundamental problems regarding the atomic and molecular theory.

Functional Organometallics

1 Results The lecture will address aspects of functional organometallics related to the development of novel organometallic materials.In chromium complexes of fused arenes-regio-and diastereoselectively accessible by chromium-templated benzannulation of arylcarbenes by alkynes[1]-a haptotropic migration of the chromium fragment along the π-face of fused arenes is controlled by both thermodynamics and the substitution pattern of the arene and the metal coligand sphere,and can be applied towards an organometallic switch[2].See Fig.1.
