Cognitive control in media multitaskers.
22 Aug 2009 
Chronic media multitasking is quickly becoming ubiquitous, although processing multiple incoming streams of information is considered a challenge for human cognition. A series of experiments addressed whether there are systematic differences in ...

[Neurophysiological investigations of information processing in the somato-sensory system]
12 Aug 2009 The ability of the human hand to perform complex sensorimotor tasks such as tactile exploration and grasping is based on 1. exact encoding of somatosensory information by cutaneous mechanoreceptors, 2. elaborated processing of afferent signals in ...

The cerebellum and language: evidence from patients with cerebellar degeneration.
4 Aug 2009 Clinical and imaging studies suggest that the cerebellum is involved in language tasks, but the extent to which slowed language production in cerebellar patients contributes to their poor performance on these tasks is not clear. We explored this ...

3 Aug 2009 This study investigated whether the human sensitivity to valence intensity changes in positive stimuli varies with extraversion. Event-related potentials were recorded for highly positive, moderately positive, and neutral stimuli while participants ...

Conflict monitoring in early frontotemporal dementia.
2 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Despite the extensive frontal atrophy and behavioral disinhibition that characterizes behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), many studies of early bvFTD suggest normal executive functioning (EF). The current study examined ...

[Influence of group learning in search processes]
30 Jul 2009 Our decisions about the world are often based on a sequential analysis of various uncertain cues. To achieve high accuracy, the order in which these cues are searched is crucial. Previous research, however, has shown that people demonstrate slow ...

Word searches: on the use of verbal and non-verbal resources during classroom talk.
30 Jul 2009 Word finding difficulties in children are typically characterized by search behaviours such as silence, circumlocution, repetition, and empty words. Yet, how children's word searches are constructed (including gesture, gaze, and prosody) and the ...

30 Jul 2009 Theories about the functional relevance of consciousness commonly posit that higher order cognitive control functions, such as response inhibition, require consciousness. To test this assertion, the authors designed a masked stop-signal paradigm to ...

A method to fuse fMRI tasks through spatial correlations: applied to schizophrenia.
30 Jul 2009 Single task analysis methods of functional MRI brain data, though useful, are not able to evaluate the joint information between tasks. Data fusion of multiple tasks that probe different cognitive processes provides knowledge of the joint ...

30 Jul 2009 Patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) often show a tendency to strongly introspect and reflect upon their self, which has been described as increased self-focus. Although subcortical-cortical midline structures have been associated with ...
