    Notes: [Auszug] We have investigated whether rats trained to discriminate between high and low auditory (or visual) intensities later find it easier to learn a visual (or auditory) intensity discrimination when the positive stimuli in both problems were of the same intensity (both high or both low) than when one ...

    Notes: [Auszug] In our experiment, motion after-effect was measured with the inspection (moving) and test (stationary) contours both red (Wratten filter 33) or both green (Wratten filter 61), or with one red and the other green. The inspection pattern subtended 1 44' in diameter, and was a square-wave grating of ...

    Haptic Illusions and Inappropriate Constancy Scaling (1967)
    [s.l.] : Nature Publishing Group

    Details
    ISSN: 1476-4687

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] Gregory5-8 has claimed that illusions represent inappropriate constancy scaling. In making visual judgments of the size of objects, use is made of such depth cues as binocular parallax, movement parallax, and perspective. When two objects subtend equal visual angles in viewing conditions where ...

    Lateral Inhibition Explanation of Geometrical Illusions (1969)

    Source: Nature Archives 1869 - 2009
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] Gregory3 has claimed the lateral inhibition explanation can be assessed by establishing whether perceptual error occurs when an illusion figure is seen binocularly but some parts are viewed by one eye and other parts by the other eye. This method has been used for a similar purpose by other ...

    Australian academics: Career patterns, work roles, and family life-cycle commitments of men and women (1993)
    Springer
    Higher education 26 (1993), S. 411-429 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-174X
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Nature of Science, Research, Systems of Higher Education, Museum Science
    Notes: Abstract Men and women who held a full-time appointment at lecturer level and above in Australian universities in 1988 were compared in terms of the career paths they had followed, geographic mobility, domestic responsibilities, work roles, and levels of performance as an academic. Women had more often spent a period outside the workforce or in part-time employment due to childcare responsibilities. They more frequently had followed their partners to another city or country, they more often had been a tutor (a non-tenurable position) before becoming a lecturer. The survey indicated that substantially more women than men pursuing a full-time career as an academic were combining substantial household labour and childcare with employment. However, even when number of children and ages of children were considered, there were no differences between men and women in self-rated performance in such academic roles as research, teaching, and administration. The results are discussed with reference to the question of why in numerical terms there have been so few women academics in Australian universities.

    Publication by men and women with same-sex and cross-sex PhD supervision (1990)
    Springer
    Higher education 20 (1990), S. 381-391 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-174X
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Nature of Science, Research, Systems of Higher Education, Museum Science
    Notes: Abstract The rates at which men and women published during and after PhD training in psychology were compared for samples experiencing same-sex and cross-sex supervision. When allowance was made for the research productivity and impact of the supervisor, women supervised by women published at similar rates to women supervised by men. Similarly, men supervised by men did not publish on average more often than men supervised by women. Further, there was no difference in mean publication rate between men and women who had completed their PhD degrees in the same university under supervision of the same advisor. Although the analyses provides no evidence that publication is more frequent following same-sex than cross-sex supervision, the possibility that supervision by an advisor of the same sex advantages graduates in other ways needs to be assessed.

    Correlates of career advancement in Australian universities (1993)
    Springer
    Higher education 26 (1993), S. 313-329 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-174X

    Notes: Abstract Academics in Australian universities who were lecturers in 1978 and senior lectures by 1988, or senior lecturers in 1978 and readers/associate professors by 1988, are compared with academics who had remained at the same level of appointment over this period. Career advancement was associated not only with demographic variables, but with work habits, and level of performance in research-related academic roles. These measures were themselves intercorrelated. The variables that most distinguished the academics in the sample who had been promoted from those who had not included rate of publication in refereed journals, level of citation, research grants applied for and obtained, and the number of PhD students under a person's supervision. Likelihood of promotion was correlated negatively with self-reported commitment to teaching. This demonstration that career advancement is associated primarily with an academic's record of achievement in research is consistent with claims in the literature about the incentive and reward system operating within Australian universities.

    Recruitment of men and women as academics by Australian universities (1994)
    Springer
    Higher education 27 (1994), S. 341-357 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-174X
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Nature of Science, Research, Systems of Higher Education, Museum Science
    Notes: Abstract Entry of men and women to an academic career was studied through a survey of 230 men and women who in 1991 held a full-time appointment at lecturer level or above in Arts and Science disciplines in an Australian university. The women more often than the men had learned about the position they obtained from a source inside the department in which the job was being filled, had been encouraged by senior members of the department to apply, and had gained a position that was filled without advertisement. However, these differences arose because more of the women than the men had been a tutor in the department where they gained a lectureship. There were no differences in terms of how men and women had been recruited when allowance was made for this factor and whether a person had been residing within Australia immediately prior to appointment. The results are discussed with reference to why men have in the past and now do substantially outnumber women among academics in Australian universities. Although the survey suggests men and women who gained positions were recruited on similar bases, successful applicants need to be compared with unsuccessful applicants to obtain comprehensive understanding whether selection practices have disadvantaged women.

    Career prospects for academics in Australian universities (1985)
    Springer
    Higher education 14 (1985), S. 497-512 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-174X

    Notes: Abstract Career prospects within Australian universities changed adversely following an abrupt end to expansion in the university system after two decades of marked growth. Few recent or future graduates can expect to gain academic positions. The present underrepresentation of women seems likely to be perpetuated. Many academics now holding tenure will not experience the same level of career advancement as their counterparts did a generation earlier. With a shift in the age distribution of academics over the next fifteen years, the Australian universities may be faced with problems of obsolescence and rigidity. Consideration is given to policy and organizational changes that could minimize some of these problems. However, there is no overall strategy that will simultaneously maintain tenure at the existing level, produce a steady-state age distribution of academics, allow even a moderate proportion of recent graduates to become academics, improve career prospects for existing academics, and increase the representation of women. One or more of these objectives can be achieved, but only at the expense of other objectives.
