ERP was particularly beneficial in helping the researchers to investigate the bi-directional hypothesis of action-sentence comprehension, which proposes that language processing facilitates movement and movement also facilitates language comprehension. In the study participants listened to sentences describing an action that involved an open ...
In the TE framework, the entailing and entailed texts are termed text (t) and hypothesis (h), respectively.Textual entailment is not the same as pure logical entailment – it has a more relaxed definition: "t entails h" (t ⇒ h) if, typically, a human reading t would infer that h is most likely true.

In population genetics, directional selection is a type of natural selection in which one extreme phenotype is favored over both the other extreme and moderate phenotypes. This genetic selection causes the allele frequency to shift toward the chosen extreme over time as allele ratios change from generation to generation.
Statistical hypothesis testing is considered a mature area within statistics, [26] but a limited amount of development continues. An academic study states that the cookbook method of teaching introductory statistics leaves no time for history, philosophy or controversy. Hypothesis testing has been taught as received unified method.
The bi-directional hypothesis of language and action proposes that the sensorimotor and language comprehension areas of the brain exert reciprocal influence over one another. [1] This hypothesis argues that areas of the brain involved in movement and sensation, as well as movement itself, influence cognitive processes such as language ...
However, similarly to its frequentist counterpart - the p-value, this index is not able to quantify evidence in favor of the null hypothesis. [2] [7] Advantages and limitations of the probability of direction have been studied by comparing it to other indices including the Bayes factor or Bayesian Equivalence test. [2] [8] [4] [9]
An 83-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of injuring a man when he allegedly opened fire during a high school band competition on Saturday, Feb.1.
The sensory drive hypothesis is a hypothesis in population ecology that posits that when local environmental conditions differ between conspecific populations, communication systems will adapt to these conditions. [1] Sensory drive predicts that both communication signals and perceptual systems will adapt to these local environmental conditions.
