that (a) relative prevalence of the three attachment styles is roughly the same in adulthood as in infancy, (b) the three kinds of adults differ predictably in the way they experience romantic love, and (c) attachment style is related in theoretically meaningful ways to mental models of self and social

capacity for language can account for qualitative and quantitative differences among college-age adults in several aspects of language comprehension. One aspect is syntactic modularity: The larger capacity of some individuals permits interaction among syntactic and pragmatic information, so

Three studies were conducted to examine the correlates of adult attachment. In Study 1, an 18-item scale to measure adult attachment style dimensions was developed based on Kazan and Shaver's (1987) categorical measure. Factor analyses revealed three dimensions underlying this measure

lateralized in older adults than in younger adults. This empirical generalization is conceptualized in terms of a model called hemispheric asymmetry reduction in older adults (HAROLD)

Frames from a voice-driven animation, computed from a single baby picture and an adult model of facial control. Note the changes in upper facial expression. See figures 5, 6 and 7 for more examples of predicted mouth shapes. We introduce a method for predicting a control signal from another related

A global branch of positive cycles is shown to exist for a general discrete time, juvenile-adult model with periodically varying coefficients. The branch bifurcates from the extinction state at a critical value of the mean, inherent fertility rate. In comparison to the autonomous system

This paper develops new economic models to synthesize and interpret the empirical literature on human skill formation. It presents simple formal economic models of child development that capture the essence of recent findings from the empirical literature. The goal of this essay is to provide a

A relatively simple model of the phonological loop (A. D. Baddeley, 1986), a component of working memory, has proved capable of accommodating a great deal of experimental evidence from normal adult participants, children, and neuropsychological patients. Until recently, however, the role

(Communicated by Jia Li) Abstract. The bifurcation that occurs from the extinction equilibrium in a basic discrete time, nonlinear juvenile-adult model for semelparous populations, as the inherent net reproductive number R0 increases through 1, exhibits a dynamic dichotomy with two alternatives

critical peri(Jlds, and to attentional phenomena such as overshadowing in the adult. The fuillctional unit of cognitive coding is suggested to be an adaptive resonance, or amplification and,prolongation of neural activity, that occurs when afferent data and efferent expectancies reach consensus through a
