Children at risk for developmental coordination disorder: judgement of changes in action capabilities.

17 Nov 2009 In three separate manipulations, a group of children at risk for developmental coordination disorder (DCD; five males, seven females; mean age 11y 6mo [SD 6.8mo] who were at or below the 15th centile on the Movement ABC) and a group of typically ... Read more...

Temporal sequence of hemispheric network activation during semantic processing: a functional network connectivity analysis.

29 Jun 2009 To explore the temporal sequence of, and the relationship between, the left and right hemispheres (LH and RH) during semantic memory (SM) processing we identified the neural networks involved in the performance of functional MRI semantic object ... Read more...

N400 deficits from semantic matching of pictures in probands and first-degree relatives from multiplex schizophrenia families.

29 Jun 2009 Endophenotypes is one emerging strategy in schizophrenia research that is being used to identify the functional importance of genetically transmitted, brain-based deficits present in this disease. Currently, event-related potentials (ERPs) are ... Read more...
