Cross-linguistic syntactic priming as rational expectation for syntactic repetition in the bilingual environment

by Kexin Xu, Tao Zeng

Recent research suggests that syntactic priming in language comprehension—the facilitated processing of repeated syntactic structures—arises from the expectation for syntactic repetition due to rational adaptation to the linguistic environment. To further evaluate the generalizability of this expectation adaptation account in cross-linguistic syntactic priming and explore the influence of second language (L2) proficiency, we conducted a self-paced reading study with...

Impact of different landing heights on the contact force in the medial tibiofemoral compartment and the surrounding muscle force characteristics in drop jumps

by Gengchao Bi, Lijun Hua, Jiajie Sun, Qiang Xu, Guanbo Li

This study explored the impact of landing height on the tibiofemoral joint’s medial compartment force (MCF) during drop jumps to help athletes prevent knee injury. Experienced male participants (N = 16) performed drop jumps with landing heights from 0.15 m to 0.75 m. Kinematic/kinetic parameters were collected using a motion capture system and a three-dimensional force platform. The Med-Lat Knee model was used to calculate biomechanical indicators of the knee joint... Читать дальше...

Genome-wide analysis of transcription-coupled repair reveals novel transcription events in Caenorhabditis elegans

by Cansu Kose, Laura A. Lindsey-Boltz, Aziz Sancar, Yuchao Jiang

Bulky DNA adducts such as those induced by ultraviolet light are removed from the genomes of multicellular organisms by nucleotide excision repair, which occurs through two distinct mechanisms, global repair, requiring the DNA damage recognition-factor XPC (xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C), and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), which does not. TCR is initiated when elongating RNA polymerase II encounters DNA damage... Читать дальше...

Royals Review 

The National Ballpark Museum

Must see for fans

On a recent trip to Denver to see the Royals play, more on that later, my son and I had the opportunity to make a visit to the National Ballpark Museum. The Museum is located at 1940 Blake Street, just a long home run from Coors Field.

The museum is the brainchild of one Bruce “B” Hellerstein, who started putting this astounding collection together in the 1980s, securing the current location in 2010.

The main focus of the museum is what’s called the 14 Classic Ballparks... Читать дальше...
