How to think, say, or do precisely the worst thing for any occasion.
Jul 2009 
In slapstick comedy, the worst thing that could happen usually does: The person with a sore toe manages to stub it, sometimes twice. Such errors also arise in daily life, and research traces the tendency to do precisely the worst thing to ironic ...

Neural mechanisms of concurrent stimulus processing in dual tasks.
30 Jun 2009 Little is known about how the human brain processes multiple relevant information streams competing for behavior. The present study aimed at specifying the interaction of the lateral prefrontal cortex (lPFC) with task-relevant sensory brain regions ...

Neural dynamics of idea generation and the effects of priming.
29 Jun 2009 Idea generation is a fundamental attribute of the human mind, but the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. In this paper, we present a dynamic connectionist model for the generation of ideas within a brainstorming ...

29 Jun 2009 Integrating information in space and time is a central feature of episodic memory. Although disturbance of the binding processes in episodic memory is well established in patients with schizophrenia, data on working memory (WM) remain discrepant. In ...

Interrater and intermethod reliability of default mode network selection.
29 Jun 2009 There has been a growing interest in the neuroimaging community regarding resting state data (i.e., passive mental activity) and the subsequent activation of the so-called default mode network (DMN). Although this network was originally ...

A comparison between written and spoken narratives in aphasia.
29 Jun 2009 The aim of the present study was to explore how a personal narrative told by a group of eight persons with aphasia differed between written and spoken language, and to compare this with findings from 10 participants in a reference group. The stories ...

Mental slowness and executive dysfunctions in patients with metabolic syndrome.
24 Jun 2009 Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of vascular risk factors which has been related to dementia and cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to describe the neuropsychological profile of metabolic syndrome patients. An extensive neuropsychological ...

23 Jun 2009 The interactions of left cytoarchitectonic BA 44 and BA 45 during semantic and phonological verbal fluency tasks were investigated using dynamic causal modelling (DCM). Three different models were tested, all of which featured BA 44 and BA 45 as ...

Category-specific activations during word generation reflect experiential sensorimotor modalities.
23 Jun 2009 According to the sensorimotor theory of lexicosemantic organization, semantic representations are neurally distributed and anatomically linked to category-specific sensory areas. Previous functional neuroimaging studies have demonstrated category ...
