Abstract

The article "How Polar Bears Stay Warm in Winter" from the journal "High Five" explains how polar bears have natural adaptations to stay warm in cold weather. Polar bears have a thick layer of blubber and two layers of fur that provide insulation when swimming in frigid waters. During especially cold or windy weather, polar bears may stay in dens for weeks, with pregnant polar bears staying for several months until they give birth to cubs in late fall or winter.

7. Effects of alcohol on variability-contingent reinforcement in human subjects

Author

McKinley, Paul J., Quevedo-Converse, Yolanda G., and Crow, Lowell T.

Subjects
Reinforcement (Psychology) -- Research, Drinking of alcoholic beverages -- Psychological aspects, Psychology and mental health
Abstract

Subjects responded under LAG-5 reinforcement conditions after consuming alcohol in table wine (0.4 g/kg ethanol). For reinforcement (points), a four-response sequence from two buttons was required which differed from the previous five sequences of four responses. In addition, some subjects responded under restricted conditions in which sequences were limited to those of moving a cursor within a 3 x 3 matrix, while other subjects had no such restrictions. Also some subjects worked alone while others were accompanied by an experimenter. Analysis showed that compared to controls, men in the unrestricted condition who received alcohol showed a decrease in uncertainty of responding. The results are discussed in terms of previous work on alcohol and behavioral variability.
