A person's experience of an emotion stems from the mental awareness of the body's physical arousal. Schachter also studied and published a large number of works on the subjects of obesity, group dynamics, birth order and smoking. A "Review of General Psychology" survey, published in 2002, ranked Schachter as the seventh most cited psychologist of the 20th century.

Since what year has the anthem which gradually supplanted the Sturmlied as the de facto anthem of the SA been banned in Germany?
|
Title: O Canada
Passage: "O Canada" (French: " Canada" ) is the national anthem of Canada. The song was originally commissioned by Lieutenant Governor of Quebec Thodore Robitaille for the 1880 Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day ceremony; Calixa Lavalle composed the music, after which, words were written by the poet and judge Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier. The lyrics were originally in French; an English version was created in 1906. Robert Stanley Weir wrote in 1908 another English version, which is the official and most popular version, one that is not a literal translation of the French. Weir's lyrics have been revised twice, taking their present form in 1980, but the French lyrics remain unaltered. "O Canada" had served as a "de facto" national anthem since 1939, officially becoming Canada's national anthem in 1980 when the Act of Parliament making it so received royal assent and became effective on July 1 as part of that year's Dominion Day (now known as Canada Day) celebrations.

Title: Chord (astronomy)
Passage: In the field of astronomy the term chord typically refers to a line crossing an object which is formed during an occultation event. By taking accurate measurements of the start and end times of the event, in conjunction with the known location of the observer and the object's orbit, the length of the chord can be determined giving an indication of the size of the occulting object. By combining observations made from several different locations, multiple chords crossing the occulting object can be determined giving a more accurate shape and size model. This technique of using multiple observers during the same event has been used to derive more sophisticated shape models for asteroids, whose shape can be highly irregular. A notable example of this occurred in 2002 when the asteroid 345 Tercidina underwent a stellar occultation of a very bright star as seen from Europe. During this event a team of at least 105 observers recorded 75 chords across the asteroid's surface allowing for a very accurate size and shape determination.

Title: A Sixth Part of the World
Passage: A Sixth Part of the World (Russian: , Shestaya Chast Mira ), sometimes referred to as The Sixth Part of the World, is a 1926 silent film directed by Dziga Vertov and produced by Kultkino (part of Sovkino). Through the travelogue format, it depicted the multitude of Soviet peoples in remote areas of USSR and detailed the entirety of the wealth of the Soviet land. Focusing on cultural and economic diversity, the film is in fact a call for unification in order to build a "complete socialist society". A mix between newsreel and found footage, Vertov edited sequences filmed by eight teams of kinoks ("kinoki") during their trips. According to Vertov, the film anticipates the coming of sound films by using a constant ""word-radio-theme"" in the intertitles. Thanks to "A Sixth Part of the World" and his following feature "The Eleventh Year" (1928), Vertov matures his style in which he will excel in his most famous film "Man with a Movie Camera" (1929).
Title: Kino-Eye
Passage: Kino-Eye (Anglophonic: Cine-Eye) is a film technique developed in Soviet Russia by Dziga Vertov. It was also the name of the movement and group that was defined by this technique. Kino-Eye was Vertov's means of capturing what he believed to be "inaccessible to the human eye"; that is, Kino-Eye films would not attempt to imitate how the human eye saw things. Rather, by assembling film fragments and editing them together in a form of montage, Kino-Eye hoped to activate a new type of perception by creating "a new filmic, i.e., media shaped, reality and a message or an illusion of a message - a semantic field." Distinct from narrative entertainment cinema forms or otherwise "acted" films, Kino-Eye sought to capture "life unawares" and edit it together in such a way that it would form a new, previously unseen truth.

In what year was the scientist born, whose work was the origin of experimental research?
|
Title: Vlkerpsychologie
Passage: Vlkerpsychologie a method of psychology that was discovered in the nineteenth century by the famous psychologist, Wilhelm Wundt. Wundt is widely known for his work with experimental psychology. Up until this time in history, psychologists were using experiments as a source of researching information. Wilhelm thought that there must be a different method for research and came up with the idea of Vlkerpsychologie. Experimentation was too limited for studying individual consciousness, especially with the application to mental processes, such as language. Wundts idea was that language was distinguished among the collective human processes and since it seemed to be crucial to the entire upper mental functions, those functions were concluded as exempt to experimental research. All of this led to the design of Vlkerpsychologie, which Wundt created as a branch of psychology which would work best for the use of historical and comparative methods instead of experiments alone.

The award preference is given to experimental work with a quantitative approach or experimental research seeking physiological explanations.
Title: History of experiments
Passage: The history of experimental research is long and varied.

What has a suprasegmental feature known as std which is a kind of laryngeal phonation that is used phonemically, the first person to describe this in In 1743 was a Danish philologist who wrote several highly insightful treatises on Danish and Latin?
|
Title: Std
Passage: Std (] ) is a suprasegmental unit of Danish phonology (represented in IPA as or as ), which in its most common form is a kind of creaky voice (laryngealization), but it may also be realized as a glottal stop, especially in emphatic pronunciation. Some dialects of Southern Danish realize "std" in a way that is more similar to the tonal word accents of Norwegian and Swedish. In much of Zealand it is regularly realized as something reminiscent of a glottal stop. A probably-unrelated glottal stop, with quite different distribution rules, occurs in Western Jutland and is known as the "vestjysk std" ("West Jutland "std""). Because Dania, the phonetic alphabet based on IPA that is designed specifically for Danish, uses the IPA character (intended as a glottal stop) broadly to transcribe "std", it may be mistaken for a consonant, rather than a suprasegmental phonation.
Title: Jens Hysgaard
Passage: Jens Pedersen Hysgaard (December 25, 1698 April 21, 1773) was a Danish philologist, caretaker at the University of Copenhagen from 17371759, and bell-ringer at Trinitatis Church. In spite of never holding an academic post, he wrote several highly insightful treatises on Danish and Latin. Today, his work on Danish is considered the best of the early grammatical analyses of the Danish language. In 1743, he was the first to describe the std, an important aspect of Danish phonology, in his "Concordia res parv crescunt, eller Anden Prve af Dansk Orthographie", in which he also introduced the letter to the Danish alphabet.
Title: Johan Ludvig Heiberg (historian)

He also published an edition of Ptolemy's "Almagest".
Title: Danish phonology
Passage: The phonology of Danish is similar to that of the other Scandinavian languages such as Swedish and Norwegian, but it also has distinct features setting it apart from the phonologies of its most closely related languages. For example Danish has a suprasegmental feature known as std which is a kind of laryngeal phonation that is used phonemically. It also exhibits extensive lenition of plosives, which is noticeably more common than in the neighboring languages. Because of that and a few other things, spoken Danish is rather hard to understand for Norwegians and Swedes, although they can easily read it.

Owl Creek today is the name of a modern subdivision of mostly non-natives, though Owl Creek remains on the rail crossing on the CNR just outside the reserve.
