Sex-specific attention problems in long-term survivors of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

13 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Neurocognitive problems are a frequent outcome of chemotherapy for pediatric leukemia, although individual differences exist in patient outcome. Sex of the patient and age at diagnosis are 2 characteristics that have been associated with ...

Intention, action planning, and decision making in parietal-frontal circuits.

8 Sep 2009 The posterior parietal cortex and frontal cortical areas to which it connects are responsible for sensorimotor transformations. This review covers new research on four components of this transformation process: planning, decision making, forward ...

Positive schizotypy scores correlate with left visual field interference for negatively valenced emotional words: A lateralized emotional Stroop study.

7 Sep 2009 Fourteen men scoring high and 14 men scoring low on a positive schizotypy scale participated in a lateralized emotional Stroop task. Vocal reaction times for color naming of neutral, positive and negative emotional words were recorded. Across ...

Reward modulates attention independently of action value in posterior parietal cortex.

7 Sep 2009 While numerous studies have explored the mechanisms of reward-based decisions (the choice of action based on expected gain), few have asked how reward influences attention (the selection of information relevant for a decision). Here we show that a ...

Visual recalibration of auditory spatial perception: two separate neural circuits for perceptual learning.

2 Sep 2009 A remarkable example of rapid perceptual learning is the visual recalibration of auditory spatial perception, which can result in either a bias (ventriloquism after-effect) or an improvement (multisensory enhancement) in auditory localization. Here, ...

Shifting development in mid-childhood: the influence of between-task interference.

30 Aug 2009 Performance on the task-switching paradigm is greatly affected by the amount of conflict between tasks. Compared to adults, children appear to be particularly influenced by this conflict, and this suggests that the ability to resolve interference ...

[Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and road traffic - special considerations for the treatment of adolescents with ADHD]

30 Aug 2009 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is not only a childhood disorder but symptoms persist into adolescence and adulthood in approximately one third of the patients. Especially inattention and poor concentration impair driving performance ...

The impact of sleep duration and subject intelligence on declarative and motor memory performance: how much is enough?

30 Aug 2009 Recent findings clearly demonstrate that daytime naps impart substantial memory benefits compared with equivalent periods of wakefulness. Using a declarative paired associates task and a procedural motor sequence task, this study examined the effect ...

Activation of the caudal anterior cingulate cortex due to task-related interference in an auditory Stroop paradigm.

30 Aug 2009 Successful information processing requires the focusing of attention on a certain stimulus property and the simultaneous suppression of irrelevant information. The Stroop task is a useful paradigm to study such attentional top-down control in the ...
