Human hippocampal and parahippocampal theta during goal-directed spatial navigation predicts performance on a virtual Morris water maze.

4 Jun 2008 The hippocampus and parahippocampal cortices exhibit theta oscillations during spatial navigation in animals and humans, and in the former are thought to mediate spatial memory formation. Functional specificity of human... Read more...

Attributions regarding unmet treatment goals after interdisciplinary chronic pain rehabilitation.

Jun 2008 BACKGROUND: The goal violation effect (GVE), a component of the relapse process model, occurs when patients make internal, stable, global, and uncontrollable rather than external, unstable, specific, and controllable... Read more...

The effects of neuromuscular fatigue on task performance during repetitive goal-directed movements.

Jun 2008 Proper movement timing is essential to the successful execution of many motor tasks and may be adversely affected by muscle fatigue. This study quantified how muscle fatigue affected task performance during a repetitive... Read more...
