An electrophysiological investigation into the automaticity of emotional face processing in high versus low trait anxious individuals.

30 Aug 2009 To examine the extent of automaticity of emotional face processing in high versus low trait anxious participants, event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded to emotional (fearful, happy) and neutral faces under varying task demands (low load, ...

Probing the attentional control theory in social anxiety: an emotional saccade task.

30 Aug 2009 Volitional attentional control has been found to rely on prefrontal neuronal circuits. According to the attentional control theory of anxiety, impairment in the volitional control of attention is a prominent feature in anxiety disorders. The present ...

Primed picture naming within and across languages: an ERP investigation.

30 Aug 2009 In two experiments, while event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded, participants named picture targets that were preceded by masked word primes that corresponded either to the name of the picture target or to an unrelated picture name. ...

Auditory context effects in picture naming investigated with event-related fMRI.

30 Aug 2009 Naming an object entails a number of processing stages, including retrieval of a target lexical concept and encoding of its phonological word form. We investigated these stages using the picture-word interference task in an fMRI experiment. ...

Behavioral and neural correlates of memory selection and interference resolution during a digit working memory task.

30 Aug 2009 Neuroimaging studies have shown the involvement of prefrontal and posterior parietal cortexes in regulating information processing. We conducted behavioral and fMRI experiments to investigate the relationship between memory selection and proactive ...

The context counts: congruent learning and testing environments prevent memory retrieval impairment following stress.

30 Aug 2009 Stress before retention testing impairs memory, whereas memory performance is enhanced when the learning context is reinstated at retrieval. In the present study, we examined whether the negative impact of stress before memory retrieval can be ...

Kettle test--a brief measure of cognitive functional performance. Reliability and valdity in stroke rehabilitation.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVES: We examined the reliability and validity of the Kettle Test, a brief performance measure based on a complex everyday task designed to tap into basic and higher level cognitive processes. METHOD: Participants included 21 people attending ...

Traumatic brain injury and driving assessment: an evidence-based literature review.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: We conducted a literature review of assessment tools predicting driving performance for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHOD: Data sources were Web of Science, EBSCOhost, PubMed, and recently published literature from experts ...

Application of the spacing effect to improve learning and memory for functional tasks in traumatic brain injury: a pilot study.

30 Aug 2009 Research has indicated that many people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) experience learning and memory difficulties because of impairments in the initial acquisition of information. We examined a strategy, the spacing effect, known to enhance new ...

Progression of mild cognitive impairment to dementia in clinic- vs community-based cohorts.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Mild cognitive impairment is increasingly recognized as an important public health problem associated with increased risk of developing dementia. Annual conversion rates, however, vary across different studies with clinic samples showing ...
