What's the difference between impulsion and impulsive?

Impulsion


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of impelling or driving onward, or the state of being impelled; the sudden or momentary agency of a body in motion on another body; also, the impelling force, or impulse.
  • (n.) Influence acting unexpectedly or temporarily on the mind; sudden motive or influence; impulse.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The method is implemented with a digital non-causal (zero-phase shift) filter, based on the convolution with a finite impulse response, to make the computation time compatible with the use of low-cost microcomputers.
  • (2) The distinguishing feature of this study is the simultaneous measurement of sympathetic firing and norepinephrine spillover in the same organ, the kidney, under conditions of intact sympathetic impulse traffic.
  • (3) All endings were electrotonically coupled to the M-cell, but impulses in less than 20% of the afferents produced chemically mediated excitatory postsynaptic potentials as well.
  • (4) In 27 decerebrate cats under various experimental conditions, we studied the effects of programmed premature ventricular contractions on the impulse activity of preganglionic sympathetic fibres isolated from the third left thoracic ramus.
  • (5) Response to a single, 5-mg dose of methylphenidate was compared in aggressive and nonaggressive attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) children using objective measures of inattention, impulsivity, and activity level.
  • (6) True Love Impulse Body Spray, Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser and VO5 Styling Mousse Extra Body marked double-digit price rises on average across the four chains.
  • (7) It is concluded that ADHD is a developmental disorder of attention, impulse control, and regulation of activity level that requires multiple treatment methods, which must be applied over long time intervals if they are to produce an impact on the outcome of children with ADHD.
  • (8) Impulses sufficiently large to stun adult sheep, with a non-penetrating impact head, were produced from an adapted Hantover pneumatic cattle stunner.
  • (9) The objective was to determine whether the parent axonal impulse train elicited by dual-hair stimulation was due to a temporal combining ("mixing"; Fukami, 1980) of the impulse trains elicited in the parent axons by the same stimulation to each hair alone.
  • (10) When afferent impulses were recorded from this fine nerve simultaneously with the blood pressure, two kinds of activity were observed.
  • (11) ADHD refers to a combination of symptoms in the general areas of inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity.
  • (12) Immediately after the onset of a current step the impulse frequency still declines.
  • (13) It imitates the conventional percussion massage of the thorax by introducing high-frequency gas oscillations (300 impulses per minute) into the tracheobronchial system.
  • (14) Mild amelioration of sleep-wakefulness cycles and impulse and drive functions could be observed clinically in both groups.
  • (15) It is concluded that a number of mechanisms can account for the conduction failure resulting from phospholipase A2, including disruption of sodium channels needed for propagation of regenerative nerve impulses and the depletion of high energy phosphates needed to maintain ionic gradients.
  • (16) With the aid of analysis of afferent impulse activity in the cat chorda tympani, it was shown that the effect of application of organic acids solutions of the same pH to the tongue could be represented as follows: propionic acid greater than lactic acid greater than pyruvic acid.
  • (17) Treadmill acceleration impulses were backwards or forwards directed, or their direction was inverted after 30 ms. Backwards directed impulses were followed by gastrocnemius and forwards directed ones by tibialis anterior EMG responses (latency 65-75 ms) whose duration depended on impulse duration.
  • (18) A propensity for elevated shear in the deep cartilage layer near the contact periphery, observed in nearly all computed stress distributions, is consistent with previous experimental findings of fissuring at that level in the impulsively loaded rabbit knee.
  • (19) Linear phase finite impulse response (FIR) filtering can be used to differentiate auditory brainstem evoked potentials (ABEP) components.
  • (20) In the pulsed mode, impulse duration and pause duration were varied between 50 and 500 ms. Total duration of coagulation was 30 s in all cases.

Impulsive


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the power of driving or impelling; giving an impulse; moving; impellent.
  • (a.) Actuated by impulse or by transient feelings.
  • (a.) Acting momentarily, or by impulse; not continuous; -- said of forces.
  • (n.) That which impels or gives an impulse; an impelling agent.
