Estimating verbal intelligence in unipolar depression: comparison of word definition and word recognition.

30 Dec 2008 Depression is known to be associated with deficits in effortful processing and word fluency. Automatic processes, instead, appear largely intact in depressed patients. It was investigated whether active word definition could be a less appropriate ...

IQ in early adulthood and mortality by middle age: cohort study of 1 million Swedish men.

30 Dec 2008 BACKGROUND: High premorbid IQ test scores are related to a reduced rate of later total mortality, although little is known about the shape of this association (ie, dose-response versus threshold), or the role of mediating and confounding factors in ...

Mental state references in psychosis: a pilot study of prompted implicit mentalising during dialogue and its relationship with social functioning.

30 Dec 2008 INTRODUCTION: Few studies of psychosis have examined dialogue-based implicit mentalising even though this is likely to reflect the skills required in everyday life better than more typical mentalising tasks. Using a semistructured dialogue task, we ...

ERP evaluation of auditory sensory memory systems in adults with intellectual disability.

30 Dec 2008 Auditory sensory memory stage can be functionally divided into two subsystems; transient-detector system and permanent feature-detector system (Naatanen, 1992). We assessed these systems in persons with intellectual disability by measuring ...

Effects of hemodialysis on profound memory deficits in renal insufficiency due to multiple myeloma: a case study.

30 Dec 2008 Multiple myeloma, a rare cancer for individuals less than 65 years of age, and its pathophysiological effects have a profound impact on neurocognitive function. Specific transient deficits in patients with renal failure secondary to multiple myeloma ...

Abnormal cerebral cortex structure in children with ADHD.

30 Dec 2008 OBJECTIVE: Examination of cerebral cortical structure in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has thus far been principally limited to volume measures. In the current study, an automated surface-based analysis technique was ...

Early bilingualism enhances mechanisms of false-belief reasoning.

30 Dec 2008 In their first years, children's understanding of mental states seems to improve dramatically, but the mechanisms underlying these changes are still unclear. Such 'theory of mind' (ToM) abilities may arise during development, or have an innate ...

Is persistent ketamine use a valid model of the cognitive and oculomotor deficits in schizophrenia?

23 Dec 2008 BACKGROUND: Acute ketamine has been shown to model features of schizophrenia such as psychotic symptoms, cognitive deficits and smooth pursuit eye movement dysfunction. There have been suggestions that chronic ketamine may also produce an analogue ...

Replication study of candidate genes for cognitive abilities: the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936.

8 Dec 2008 As the proportion of older people in societies has increased, research into the determinants of cognitive ageing has risen in importance. Genetic influences account for over 50% of the variance in adult cognitive abilities. Previous studies on ...
