Racial Discrimination and Racial Identity as Risk or Protective Factors for Violent Behaviors in African American Young Adults
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-03)
This study examined the influences of racial discrimination and different racial identity attitudes on engaging in violent behavior among 325 African American young adults. The contributions of racial discrimination and ...
Benzodiazepine Ro 15-1788: Electrophysiological evidence for partial agonist activity
(Elsevier, 1983-12-30)
The effects of diazepam and Ro 15-1788 were assessed upon responses of mouse spinal cord (SC) neurons in cell culture to the amino acid neurotransmitters 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and S-glutamic acid. Diazepam (100 nM) ...
Enuresis, fire setting, and animal cruelty: A useful danger signal in predicting vulnerability of adolescent males to assaultive behavior
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Behavioral Publications, Inc. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1974-03)
Current shifts in corrective and rehabilitation planning result in an emphasis upon primary prevention efforts involving early identification and intervention with vulnerable children who run high risk of serious adolescent ...
Impairments in orienting to visual stimuli in monkeys following unilateral lesions of the superior sulcal polysensory cortex
(Elsevier, 1986)
Monkeys were tested for head and eye orientation to illuminated lamps in a hemisphere before and after serial, unilateral lesions of the polysensory superior temporal cortex (STS) or control lesions. Following STS lesions ...
Plasma prolactin and severe premenstrual tension
(Elsevier, 1984)
It has been suggested that elevated luteal phase prolactin (PRL) levels may have an important role in causing some of the symptoms of the premenstrual tension syndrome (PMTS). Thirty-seven women suffering from severe ...
Nucleotide sequence and expression of the mouse corticotropin-releasing hormone gene
(Elsevier, 1991-06)
The mouse corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) gene has been isolated and characterized by DNA sequence analysis. The gene exhibits a structural organization similar to that of the human, rat, and ovine genes with two ...
Effects of neonatal forebrain noradrenaline depletion on recovery from brain damage: Performance on a spatial navigation task as a function of age of surgery and postsurgical housing
(Elsevier, 1986-11)
The experiments examined the contributions of forebrain noradrenaline and environmental enrichment to recovery of place navigation ability in rats after hemidecortication in infancy or adulthood. Noradrenaline depletion ...
Quantitative in vivo receptor binding IV: Detection of muscarinic receptor down-regulation by equilibrium and by tracer kinetic methods
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1991-09)
Newly-developed methods for estimation of in vivo binding to neurotransmitter receptors should enable the detection and quantification of physiologic or pathologic changes in receptor numbers. In the present study, both ...
Control by light of the temperature rhythm in food-restricted hamsters
(Elsevier, 1994-08)
To establish the relative importance of light and food in the control of core temperature (Tc) rhythm in food-restricted hamsters, mature female hamsters maintained in 14L:10D lighting were fed restricted amounts of food ...
