  2. Semantic change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_change

    Permutation: non-intentional shift of one referent to another due to a reinterpretation of a situation, e.g., bead "prayer" → "pearl in a rosary") Adequation: Change in the attitude of a concept; distinction from substitution is unclear. This classification does not neatly distinguish between processes and forces/causes of semantic change.

  3. Frameshift mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frameshift_mutation

    This is known as the standard reading frame. However, in cases of frame shift mutations, an extra nucleotide (or more) is inserted into the DNA sequence, disrupting the typical reading frame and causing a shift in the sequence. This insertion prompts a shift in the reading frame due to the triplet nature of the genetic code.

  4. Doorway effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doorway_effect

    Shift Trials: In these trials, they made a space change. But not every time there was a change did they ask a memory question. Results: Experiment 2 found that the effect they saw in Experiment 1, where the connection between objects and a person affected memory, was seen again. This effect persisted even when there was no space change.

    Rather, individuals constantly project into the world around them the interpretive frames that allow them to make sense of it; we only shift frames (or realize that we have habitually applied a frame) when incongruity calls for a frame-shift. In other words, we only become aware of the frames that we always already use when something forces us ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosomal_frameshift

    Notable examples include HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus), [7] RSV (Rous sarcoma virus) [8] and the influenza virus (flu), [9] which all rely on frameshifting to create a proper ratio of 0-frame (normal translation) and "trans-frame" (encoded by frameshifted sequence) proteins. Its use in viruses is primarily for compacting more genetic ...

  8. Dyschronometria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyschronometria

    This also explains why dyschronometria is seen more commonly in the elderly due to the deterioration of physical brain matter with age. Other probable causes for the deterioration of brain matter in the elderly include increased supranational activation, decreased cerebellar activation (which is consistent with fronto-cerebellar dissociation).
