Childhood origins of adult resistance to science

adult

Bloom P, Weisberg DS.
GSID: ID9meQIRx1AJ
P Bloom, DS Weisberg - science, 2007 - science.org

Resistance to certain scientific ideas derives in large part from assumptions and biases that can be demonstrated experimentally in young children and that may persist into adulthood. …

Domain-specific knowledge in simple categorization tasks.

Psychonomic bulletin & review

Kelemen D, Bloom P.
PMID: 24203523
Psychon Bull Rev. 1994 Sep;1(3):390-5. doi: 10.3758/BF03213980.

Many contemporary theories of learning and memory adopt the empiricist premise that concepts are structured according to perceptual similarity. Developmental differences in categorization tasks are thereby interpreted as the result of qualitative shifts in the capacity to attend to...

Diffusion-limited current in organic metal-insulator-metal diodes.

Physical review letters

de Bruyn P, van Rest AH, Wetzelaer GA, de Leeuw DM, Blom PW.
PMID: 24237546
Phys Rev Lett. 2013 Nov 01;111(18):186801. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.186801. Epub 2013 Oct 29.

An analytical expression for the diffusion current in organic metal-insulator-metal diodes is derived. The derivation is based on the classical diffusion theory of Schottky, with adaptations to account for the absence of doping, a built-in voltage due to asymmetric...

Therapeutic efficacy of ethanolic extract of Aerva javanica aerial parts in the amelioration of CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity and oxidative damage in rats.

Food & nutrition research

Arbab AH, Parvez MK, Al-Dosari MS, Al-Rehaily AJ, Ibrahim KE, Alam P, Alsaid MS, Rafatullah S.
PMID: 27059702
Food Nutr Res. 2016 Apr 07;60:30864. doi: 10.3402/fnr.v60.30864. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Liver diseases, the fifth most common cause of global death, can be metabolic, toxin-induced, or infective. Though approximately 35 Saudi medicinal plants are traditionally used to treat liver disorders, the hepatoprotective potential of Aerva javanica has not been...

Nano-fabrication of molecular electronic junctions by targeted modification of metal-molecule bonds.

Scientific reports

Jafri SH, Löfås H, Blom T, Wallner A, Grigoriev A, Ahuja R, Ottosson H, Leifer K.
PMID: 26395225
Sci Rep. 2015 Sep 23;5:14431. doi: 10.1038/srep14431.

Reproducibility, stability and the coupling between electrical and molecular properties are central challenges in the field of molecular electronics. The field not only needs devices that fulfill these criteria but they also need to be up-scalable to application size....

Cognitive Advantages of Bilingual Children in Different Sociolinguistic Contexts.

Frontiers in psychology

Blom E, Boerma T, Bosma E, Cornips L, Everaert E.
PMID: 28484403
Front Psychol. 2017 Apr 21;8:552. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2017.00552. eCollection 2017.

Many studies have shown that bilingual children outperform monolinguals on tasks testing executive functioning, but other studies have not revealed any effect of bilingualism. In this study we compared three groups of bilingual children in the Netherlands, aged 6-7...

River bank materials as a source and as carriers of phosphorus to lake pepin.

Journal of environmental quality

Grundtner A, Gupta S, Bloom P.
PMID: 25602216
J Environ Qual. 2014 Nov;43(6):1991-2001. doi: 10.2134/jeq2014.03.0131.

Lake Pepin, a natural impoundment on the Upper Mississippi River, has water quality problems of high sedimentation rates and elevated phosphorus (P) levels. The majority of sediments in Lake Pepin come from river banks consisting of fine tills in...

International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology

Rezzonico F, Smits THM, Born Y, Blom J, Frey JE, Goesmann A, Cleenwerck I, de Vos P, Bonaterra A, Duffy B, Montesinos E.
PMID: 26813696
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol. 2016 Mar;66(3):1583-1592. doi: 10.1099/ijsem.0.000920. Epub 2016 Jan 26.

A survey to obtain potential antagonists of pome fruit tree diseases yielded two yellow epiphytic bacterial isolates morphologically similar to

Chromosomal Speciation in the Genomics Era: Disentangling Phylogenetic Evolution of Rock-wallabies.

Frontiers in genetics

Potter S, Bragg JG, Blom MP, Deakin JE, Kirkpatrick M, Eldridge MD, Moritz C.
PMID: 28265284
Front Genet. 2017 Feb 10;8:10. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2017.00010. eCollection 2017.

The association of chromosome rearrangements (CRs) with speciation is well established, and there is a long history of theory and evidence relating to "chromosomal speciation." Genomic sequencing has the potential to provide new insights into how reorganization of genome...

Uncertainty Propagation in Nerve Impulses Through the Action Potential Mechanism.

Journal of mathematical neuroscience

Torres Valderrama A, Witteveen J, Navarro M, Blom J.
PMID: 26458902
J Math Neurosci. 2015 Dec;5(1):3. doi: 10.1186/2190-8567-5-3. Epub 2015 Jan 12.

We investigate the propagation of probabilistic uncertainty through the action potential mechanism in nerve cells. Using the Hodgkin-Huxley (H-H) model and Stochastic Collocation on Sparse Grids, we obtain an accurate probabilistic interpretation of the deterministic dynamics of the transmembrane...
