43 undergraduates made predictions of the point of coincidence of 2 pointers rotating at different rates, the trailing one closing on the leading one in the speed ratio of 3:2. During the viewing period, prior to prediction, pointer rotation was displayed intermittently, with variations in the display to no-display ratio. Results did not support the hypothesis that intermittent displays would produce more accurate predictions than a continuous display, as a consequence of the greater apparent opportunity for feedback provided by the intermittent displays. Intermittent displays resulted in magnitude of error similar to that produced by a continuous display. Ss' tendencies to over- or underestimate the point of coincidence appeared to be related to their estimates of the relative rates of travel by the two pointers. This suggested that the large consistent errors made by many Ss might be due to a generalized, and often erroneous, assumption concerning the rate of gain of the one pointer on the other

With little else than the trouble of surveying one of the finest of Edinburgh landscapes, the tourist beginning work amongst the débris just to the south of where Samson's ribs overhang the road, and continuing on the road along Salisbury Crags to Holyrood Palace, will meet with a continuous display of the relations specially of zeolitic minerals, and their containing rocks. If he care to pursue the literature of the subject, Daubrée's investigations on the genesis of zeolites, as well as Allport's, Bonney's, and Geikie's petrological researches into the microscopy of the rocks in question, will suggest oven more lengthened studies.

The basic principle of the method described here is derived from a variant of the oscillation method. A reference impedance is connected to the mouth; between these two an oscillating flow is imposed. As a reference impedance we use a flexible tube, which acts as a virtually pure inductance or inertance. Respiration is hardly impeded. The only measured parameter is the alternating pressure in front of the mouth and this is easily picked up by a simple microphone. In contrast to former direct-display methods, the inertia and elasticity of the respiratory gas and the respiratory tract, i.e., airways including lungs and thorax, are also taken into account for the evaluation. The respiratory resistance is studied as a complex parameters, i.e., as an impedance. With the aid of diagrams or via electronic computation circuitry, the direct and continuous display of all impedance components such as its magnitude and phase, resistance, and reactance is possible. They can be read out as a function of time, respiratory flow, or volume.

If information is displayed for a fixed amount of time, it is usually presented continuously rather than intermittently. Although there is some literature to support this practice, it is scarce. This paper suggests that a continuous display is optimal in certain instances only, while in other cases, repeated presentations of the same information leads to a higher retention rate. The paper also proposes an equation relating the number of items reported to the total time the information is displayed and to the number of presentations. To reconcile the apparent contradictionin optimal methods of presentation, the paper identifies three stages in the processing of visually presented information.
