This animal study trained adult zebrafish to perform a conditioned avoidance response to a visual cue. The visual cue was presented alone or together with an extremely low frequency sinusoidally changing magnetic field (0.3 Hz) at 0.015 mT or 0.06 mT. The abstract reports that the 0.06 mT magnetic field condition…

This paper reports four experiments examining how a ringing cell phone affects cognitive performance in laboratory tasks and a college classroom lecture. In the lab, auditory conditions (including a standard cell phone ring) produced slower responses than silence, with slower recovery in the ring and song conditions.…
