Relations between protein intake and blood pressure in Japanese men and women: the Circulatory Risk in Communities Study (CIRCS).

8 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: An inverse association between protein intake and blood pressure has been reported in Western countries. However, the evidence is limited for Asians, whose protein sources are different from those in Western populations. OBJECTIVES: The ...

Vocabulary learning in primary school children: working memory and long-term memory components.

7 Jun 2009 The goal of this study was to investigate which working memory and long-term memory components predict vocabulary learning. We used a nonword learning paradigm in which 8- to 10-year-olds learned picture-nonword pairs. The nonwords varied in length ...

Medial prefrontal cortex and right insula activity predict plasma ACTH response to trauma recall.

4 Jun 2009 Neural substrates underlying psychological activation of the limbic-hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (LHPA) axis are not well understood in humans. Trauma recall (using autobiographical script-driven imagery) may provide a model to study neural ...

The role of intention to conceal in the P300-based concealed information test.

3 Jun 2009 The present study examined whether intention to conceal knowledge affects P300 amplitude and detection accuracy in the concealed information test. Eighteen university students were told to choose one card from five and to hide it. In the conceal ...

A viewpoint-independent process for spatial reorientation.

3 Jun 2009 Reorientation tasks, in which disoriented participants attempt to relocate objects using different visual cues, have previously been understood to depend on representing aspects of the global organisation of the space, for example its major axis for ...

Episodic simulation of future events is impaired in mild Alzheimer's disease.

31 May 2009 Recent neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that both remembering the past and simulating the future activate a core neural network including the medial temporal lobes. Regions of this network, in particular the medial temporal lobes, are prime ...

Defending a coherent autobiography: when past events appear incoherent, mortality salience prompts compensatory bolstering of the past's significance and the future's orderliness.

31 May 2009 Drawing on terror management theory, we propose that maintaining a coherent autobiography protects the individual from mortality concerns by imbuing experience over time with significance and order. Two studies test whether mortality salience ...

Parasympathetic reactivity to recalled traumatic and pleasant events in trauma-exposed individuals.

30 May 2009 Parasympathetic and heart rate (HR) reactivity to memories of traumatic and pleasant events were investigated in trauma-exposed individuals (n = 40). Vagal tone and HR were recorded before, during, and following recall of traumatic and pleasant ...

Can anchor models explain inverted-U effects in facial judgments?

30 May 2009 Researchers in a variety of disciplines have found that participants take less time and generate less diversity of responses when judging stimuli towards the ends of a scale than when judging those near the center. Three types of models, ...
