| 1 | The results for the OR are just what the model expects . |
| 2 | Cutting the that was for for the or the dairy cows . |
| 3 | Provided the court is satisfied with your petition it will then make a bankruptcy order against the debtor , placing his assets in the hands of the Official Receiver ( a civil servant from the Department of Trade and Industry , known as the OR ) . |
| 4 | If the court accepts the creditors ' petition and grants a winding up order the company will come under the control of the Official Receiver ( a civil servant from the Department of Trade and Industry known as the OR ) . |
| 5 | That it does not , requires a different interpretation , and one has been offered by other Eastern European workers , notably by Sokolov ( e.g. 1963 ) , who suggested that the functional significance of the OR is that it facilitates the uptake and processing of environmental information . |
| 6 | Certainly , those experiments in which the occurrence of an overt component of the OR has been monitored have demonstrated that the response that has been habituated during pre-exposure tends to reappear when the CS-US pairings are begun . |
| 7 | And , as the upper panel of the figure shows , the introduction of the conditioning procedure was accompanied by a rapid and dramatic increase in the occurrence of the OR . |
| 8 | ( It is interesting to note that the frequency of occurrence of the OR actually declined during conditioning for the control subjects . |
| 9 | None the less , it seems plausible to suppose that the loss of the OR in the pre-exposed group might retard the formation of a light-food association simply because it reduces the likelihood that these subjects will see the light at the start of conditioning . |
| 10 | Siegel ( 1972 ) reports that pre-exposure to a tone in rabbits leads to a loss of the OR ( evident as a decline in the likelihood of occurrence of an eye-opening response evoked by the novel tone ) but the latent inhibition that was also found can not be directly attributed to the loss of this aspect of the OR . |
| 11 | Siegel ( 1972 ) reports that pre-exposure to a tone in rabbits leads to a loss of the OR ( evident as a decline in the likelihood of occurrence of an eye-opening response evoked by the novel tone ) but the latent inhibition that was also found can not be directly attributed to the loss of this aspect of the OR . |
| 12 | In order to explain latent inhibition in terms of the habituation of the OR it is clearly necessary to interpret the latter as being some central response , the evocation of which is necessary for speedy conditioning . |
| 13 | The frequency of occurrence of the OR returned to its original level . |
| 14 | If so , the restoration of the OR seen in these circumstances need not necessarily imply a change in the specific ability of the target stimulus to evoke its UR ; rather it may mean that even a weak tendency to emit this UR can be amplified substantially by a high level of arousal . |
| 15 | On the other hand , the effects of pre-exposure to the test context did not survive the 14-day retention interval during which the light was presented in another context — subjects in group B/A-L showed a restoration of the OR similar to that seen in subjects transferred to an entirely new context . |
| 16 | Although it occurred more slowly than for subjects given non-reinforced pre-exposure , loss of the OR occurred in control subjects too , a result consistent with the view that α will decline when the CS predicts a consistent consequence and that the OR reflects the value of α . |
| 17 | Swan and Pearce ( 1988 ) have attempted to establish the generality of the principle that the strength of the OR will be inversely related to the predictive accuracy of the stimulus by using a procedure other than partial reinforcement . |
| 18 | Control subjects that experienced training in which the immediate consequences of the light did not differ in their reinforcing value from one trial to another ( for these the interval between the offset of the light and food delivery was fixed and thus did not depend on whether it contained a tone or a clicker ) showed a steady decline in the frequency of the OR . |
| 19 | I have already argued in this chapter ( p. 79 ) that the rat 's level of arousal can help determine the vigour of the OR ; and , theoretically more important , in this and in previous chapters I have argued that the decline of this investigatory response represents the operation of a process of habituation . |
| 20 | Partial reinforcement , by maintaining associability ( attention ) , will generate pecks that constitute components of the OR and these , by adding in to the CRs produced by the associative strength of the CS , ensure a high rate of response . |
| 21 | There is no reason why a change of context should restore α but given that a novel context is likely to be arousing , some increase in the likelihood of the OR might occur . |
| 22 | Now the results of experiments on habituation of the OR have been taken as supporting the latter assertion — dishabituation fails to occur if the changed context is familiar . |
| 23 | Just as the identity of the or segment was affected by its integration into a lexical hypothesis , so the identity of a word will depend on its integration into a sentence context . |
| 24 | And the final balance represents the position at the end of the or should do . |
| 25 | Sealed units must have destroyed at lot of the or taken a chunk out of the market . |
| 26 | Erm the other parts that I made a note of , you did n't ac well you Steve said the wife will be back in an hour and a half erm you did n't pick up Bill any , anything on that at that stage as to whether she ought to be involved although when he started talking or when he could n't remember the , the names of the or dates of birth of the children , he remembered the names , the dates of birth of the children , you mentioned the fact then that the wife would be back in a in an hour |
| 27 | I i if you can remember , can you tell us the words you used throughout the or the gist of the words ? |
| 28 | Any meaningful stretch of language , of any extent , like the or in case I 've thrown it away or the s in a plural like chairs . |
| 29 | Yeah , was like the or German 's |
| 30 | This response is not directly equated with the OR or any component of it ; rather it is an hypothetical construct evidenced in behaviour by its effect on the rate of conditioning — the associability of a stimulus is determined by the magnitude of the attentional response it evokes . |
