Chromosome assignment of 115 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from human skeletal muscle.

The chromosome assignment of 115 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from human skeletal muscle, 101 of which identify unknown human genes, is reported. The ESTs were selected among over 4,000 obtained from systematic sequencing of a skeletal muscle cDNA library containing 3' portions of the mRNAs. Chromosome assignments were obtained by PCR amplification of two panels of human x rodent somatic cell hybrids. Analysis of these preliminary data suggests a nonrandom distribution of muscle ESTs in the human chromosome complement. The unexpected occurrence of multiple chromosome localizations for some ESTs is discussed.

Field articulation and predictive judgments: an exploratory study.

The relationship of differences in accuracy between men and women in interpersonal predictive judgments to those reported in field articulation research was explored. Field-dependent (ns = 14,12) and field-independent (ns = 21,12) men and women (ns = 35, 24) were tested for accuracy of predictive judgments. No statistically significant differences were found between thses undergraduate field-dependent and field-independent judges; however, under the field-independent condition, a cell-by-cell examination suggests greater accuracy. There were no significant differences in accuracy of prediction between male and female judges, but statistically significant differences in accuracy scores were found when the person whose behavior was being predicted was female as opposed to male.
