Should I stay or should I switch? A cost-benefit analysis of voluntary language switching in young and aging bilinguals.

29 Apr 2009 Bilinguals spontaneously switch languages in conversation even though laboratory studies reveal robust cued language switching costs. The authors investigated how voluntary-switching costs might differ when switches are voluntary. Younger ...

Recognition ROCs are curvilinear-or are they? On premature arguments against the two-high-threshold model of recognition.

29 Apr 2009 Recent reviews of recognition receiver operating characteristics (ROCs) claim that their curvilinear shape rules out threshold models of recognition. However, the shape of ROCs based on confidence ratings is not diagnostic to refute threshold ...

Contribution of prior semantic knowledge to new episodic learning in amnesia.

29 Apr 2009 We evaluated whether prior semantic knowledge would enhance episodic learning in amnesia. Subjects studied prices that are either congruent or incongruent with prior price knowledge for grocery and household items and then performed a forced-choice ...

Effect of aspirin on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function and on neuropsychological performance in healthy adults: a pilot study.

27 Apr 2009 RATIONALE: Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysregulation predicts poor clinical and biochemical response to antidepressants. Antiglucocorticoids have therapeutic benefits but most have a troublesome adverse event profile. Aspects of ...

Dyslexia and dyscalculia: two learning disorders with different cognitive profiles.

24 Apr 2009 This study tests the hypothesis that dyslexia and dyscalculia are associated with two largely independent cognitive deficits, namely a phonological deficit in the case of dyslexia and a deficit in the number module in the case of dyscalculia. In ...

Speech errors reflect the phonotactic constraints in recently spoken syllables, but not in recently heard syllables.

24 Apr 2009 Adults rapidly learn phonotactic constraints from brief production or perception experience. Three experiments asked whether this learning is modality-specific, occurring separately in production and perception, or whether perception transfers to ...

Social-cognitive difficulties in former users of methamphetamine.

23 Apr 2009 OBJECTIVES: Methamphetamine (MA) abuse is associated with neurocognitive impairment. We investigated whether important aspects of social-cognitive function are similarly disrupted. METHODS: A total of 12 adults with a history of MA dependence ...

Functional connectivity reveals inefficient working memory systems in post-traumatic stress disorder.

21 Apr 2009 We applied a covariance-based multivariate analysis to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data to investigate abnormalities in working memory (WM) systems in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Patients (n=13) and matched ...

Effect of perospirone on P300 electrophysiological activity and social cognition in schizophrenia: a three-dimensional analysis with sloreta.

20 Apr 2009 The purpose of this study was to determine if perospirone, a second generation antipsychotic drug and partial agonist at serotonin-5-HT(1A) receptors, enhances electrophysiological activity, such as event-related potentials (ERPs), in frontal brain ...

Working memory in children with developmental disorders.

18 Apr 2009 The aim of the present study was to directly compare working memory skills across students with different developmental disorders to investigate whether the uniqueness of their diagnosis would impact memory skills. The authors report findings ...
