Book A Review of Literature on the Relative Efficiency of the Dominant and the Nondominant Eye

Download or read book A Review of Literature on the Relative Efficiency of the Dominant and the Nondominant Eye written by Alberta Steinman Gilinsky and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence on the incidence of ocular dominance is summarized and the findings relevant to the comparative efficiency of the dominant and the non-dominant eye in various perceptual-motor skills and visual functions are reviewed. Although a small advantage for the dominant eye in cases of unmixed manual-ocular laterality is indicated by some studies, there is reason to doubt the permanence and universality of this superiority. No advantage for either eye is found in cases of mixed laterality for any function.

Book Gender and Nonverbal Behavior

Download or read book Gender and Nonverbal Behavior written by C. Mayo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses two lively and active research communities, those concerned with issues of gender and those dealing with nonverbal behavior. The wide range of professional and popular interest in both these topics convinced us that presen tations of current work by researchers who bring these two areas of research together would prove stimulating. These presentations not only address the state of current work on gender and nonverbal behavior, but also suggest new avenues of investigation for those interested primarily in either topic. In other words, the questions that nonverbal communication researchers address when considering gender bring new directions to gender-related research and a like effect can be expected when the questions raised in gender studies are applied to research in nonverbal behavior. Dispersion of ideas may take another form as well. Both gender and nonverbal behavior research are notably interdisciplinary. Perhaps because of their pervasive nature, both topics have attracted the attention of a diversity of scholars. Most of the contributions in the present volume are by psychologists, but their intended audience is broad. Linguists, sociologists, and anthropologists are among those who share similar research interests. Moreover, the ideas presented here are of interest to practitioners as well as scholars. From corporations to clinics, people are interested in the subtle expression and negotiation of sex roles through non verbal communication.

Book Visual Impairments

    Book Details:
  • Author : National Research Council
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2002-08-17
  • ISBN : 0309083486
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book Visual Impairments written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-08-17 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When children and adults apply for disability benefits and claim that a visual impairment has limited their ability to function, the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) is required to determine their eligibility. To ensure that these determinations are made fairly and consistently, SSA has developed criteria for eligibility and a process for assessing each claimant against the criteria. Visual Impairments: Determining Eligibility for Social Security Benefits examines SSA's methods of determining disability for people with visual impairments, recommends changes that could be made now to improve the process and the outcomes, and identifies research needed to develop improved methods for the future. The report assesses tests of visual function, including visual acuity and visual fields whether visual impairments could be measured directly through visual task performance or other means of assessing disability. These other means include job analysis databases, which include information on the importance of vision to job tasks or skills, and measures of health-related quality of life, which take a person-centered approach to assessing visual function testing of infants and children, which differs in important ways from standard adult tests.

Book Power  Dominance  and Nonverbal Behavior

Download or read book Power Dominance and Nonverbal Behavior written by Steve L. Ellyson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of nonverbal behavior has substantially grown in importance in social psychology during the past twenty years. In addition, other disciplines are increas ingly bringing their unique perspectives to this research area. Investigators from a wide variety of fields such as developmental, clinical, and social psychology, as well as primatology, human ethology, sociology, anthropology, and biology have system atically examined nonverbal aspects of behavior. Nowhere in the nonverbal behavior literature has such multidisciplinary concern been more evident than in the study of the communication of power and dominance. Ethological insights that explored nonhuman-human parallels in nonverbal communication provided the impetus for the research of the early 19708. The sociobiological framework stimulated the search for analogous and homologous gestures, expressions, and behavior patterns among various species of primates, including humans. Other lines of research, in contrast to evolutionary-based models, have focused on the importance of human developmental and social contexts in determining behaviors associated with power and dominance. Unfortunately, there has been little in the way of cross-fertilization or integration among these fields. A genuine need has existed for a forum that exam ines not only where research on power, dominance, and nonverbal behavior has been, but also where it will likely lead. We thus have two major objectives in this book. One goal is to provide the reader with multidisciplinary, up-to-date literature reviews and research findings.

Book The Effects of Ocular Dominance on Visual Processing in College Students

Download or read book The Effects of Ocular Dominance on Visual Processing in College Students written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of ocular dominance in processing visual memory and analytic tasks is unknown. Previous research variably showed both significant effects and no effect of ocular dominance on visual perception, motor control and sports performance. Consequently, the goal of this study was to determine if there is a relationship between ocular dominance and visual processing under a variety of computer gaming tasks. This was accomplished by first determining subjects' ocular dominance through the use of the Miles test, and then proceeding to examine the subjects' visual performance on four different Lumosity games under three conditions: left eye, right eye and both eyes. The results revealed that there was a relationship between ocular dominance and score in one of the games tested: Raindrops. However, there was no relationship between ocular dominance and accuracy measured in this game nor was there a relationship within any of the other games. It is possible that a relationship between ocular dominance and score in the game Raindrops may have been due to the simplicity of the task. Raindrops only measures arithmetic ability whereas the other games measure a variety of different abilities. A small sample size (n = 20) may have also contributed to the inability to detect significant effects.
