AbstractA logical constant is weakly disharmonious if its elimination rules are weaker than its introduction rules. Substructural weak disharmony is the weak disharmony generated by structural restrictions on the eliminations. I argue that substructural weak disharmony is not a defect of the constants which exhibit it. To the extent that it is problematic, it calls into question the structural properties of the derivability relation. This prompts us to rethink the issue of controlling the structural properties of a logic by means of harmony. I argue that such a control is possible and desirable. Moreover, it is best achieved by global tests of harmony.

Face Experiment

Four experiments were aimed at elucidating some aspects of the preference for facelike patterns in newborns. Experiment 1 showed a preference for a stimulus whose components were located in the correct arrangement for a human face. Experiment 2 showed a preference for stimuli that had optimal sensory properties for the newborn visual system. Experiment 3 showed that babies directed their attention to a facelike pattern even when it was presented simultaneously with a non-facelike stimulus with optimal sensory properties. Experiment 4 showed the preference for facelike patterns in the temporal hemifield but not in the nasal hemifield. It was concluded that newborns' preference for facelike patterns reflects the activity of a subcortical system which is sensitive to the structural properties of the stimulus.

Summary1. Thrombosis in rats were produced by Blake et al.’s technique of application of formalin solution to the jugular vein. The incidence of thrombosis produced by a 10% (v/v) formalin in 65% methanol solution and observed after 24 hours was 30% ± 4.6 S. D.2. The administration of 100 mg EACA 1,000 g body weight orally every fourth hour for 24 hours increased the incidence of thrombosis about twice (to about 65%).A single dose of 400 mg EACA 1,000 g body weight had a slight effect only.3. EACA increased markedly the antifibrinolytic activity in plasma with a maximum after 3—5 hours oral administration. A moderate increase in the fibrinogen concentration was observed in all groups.4. Global tests for plasma coagulation, the platelet count and the number of adhesive platelets were not significantly influenced by the administration of EACA.
