    Benefits of Affective Pedagogical Agents in Multimedia Instruction
    with Xiaowei Feng, Jiangnan Guo, Shaoying Gong, Yanan Wu, and Jing Wang
    Frontiers in Psychology 12. 2022.
    The goal of the present study is to explore whether the affective states of a pedagogical agent in an online multimedia lesson yields different learning processes and outcomes, and whether the effects of affective PAs depend on the learners’ emotion regulation strategies and their prior knowledge. In three experiments, undergraduates were asked to view a narrated animation about synaptic transmission that included either a happy PA or a neutral PA and subsequently took emotions, motivation, cogn…Read more

    Separations by Random Oracles and "Almost" Classes for Generalized Reducibilities
    with W. Merkle
    Mathematical Logic Quarterly 47 (2): 249-270. 2001.
    Let ≤r and ≤sbe two binary relations on 2ℕ which are meant as reducibilities. Let both relations be closed under finite variation and consider the uniform distribution on 2ℕ, which is obtained by choosing elements of 2ℕ by independent tosses of a fair coin.Then we might ask for the probability that the lower ≤r-cone of a randomly chosen set X, that is, the class of all sets A with A ≤rX, differs from the lower ≤s-cone of X. By c osure under finite variation, the Kolmogorov 0-1 aw yields immediat…Read more

    Visualizing the mechanical activation of Src
    with E. L. Botvinick, Y. Zhao, M. W. Berns, S. Usami, R. Y. Tsien, and S. Chien
    The mechanical environment crucially influences many cell functions 1. However, it remains largely mysterious how mechanical stimuli are transmitted into biochemical signals. Src is known to regulate the integrin-cytoskeleton interaction2, which is essential for the transduction of mechanical stimuli3-5. Using fluorescent resonance energy transfer, here we develop a genetically encoded Src reporter that enables the imaging and quantification of spatio-temporal activation of Src in live cells. We…Read more

    Using the ER-fMRI technique, the present study was designed to investigate the neural substrates of language switching among second-language learners. Twelve Chinese college students who were learning English were scanned when they performed language switching tasks. Compared to non-switching conditions, language switching elicited greater activation in the right superior prefrontal cortex, left middle and superior frontal cortex, and right middle cingulum and caudate. When the direction of swit…Read more

    Mapping abnormal subcortical brain morphometry in an elderly HIV+ cohort
    with Wade Bsc, Vg Valcour, L. Wendelken-Riegelhaupt, P. Esmaeili-Firidouni, sh JoShi, and Pm Thompson
    © 2015 IEEE. Over 50% of HIV+ individuals exhibit neurocognitive impairment and subcortical atrophy, but the pattern of brain abnormalities associated with HIV is still poorly understood. Using parametric surface-based shape analyses, we mapped the 3D profile of subcortical morphometry in 63 HIV+ participants and 31 uninfected controls. The thalamus, corpus striatum, hippocampus, amygdala, brainstem, callosum and ventricles were segmented from brain MRIs. To investigate subcortical shape, we ana…Read more
