Neurophysiological characterization of high-dose magnetic seizure therapy: comparisons with electroconvulsive shock and cognitive outcomes.

30 Aug 2009 Magnetic seizure therapy (MST) is under development as a means of improving cognitive outcomes with convulsive therapy through achieving better control over therapeutic seizure induction than is possible with conventional electroconvulsive therapy. ...

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 ...

Effects of different viewing perspectives on somatosensory activations during observation of touch.

30 Aug 2009 Previous studies showed that neurons in the monkey premotor cortex became active when performing a particular action and also when observing the same action performed by others. These findings suggest a mirror system for action observation. ...

Functional brain areas associated with manipulation of a prehensile tool: a PET study.

30 Aug 2009 Using PET, brain areas representing the use of a well-learned tool (chopsticks) were investigated in 10 normal common users. The experimental task was to hold the tool in their right hand and use it to pick up and transport a small pin from a table. ...

Coordinate-based activation likelihood estimation meta-analysis of neuroimaging data: a random-effects approach based on empirical estimates of spatial uncertainty.

30 Aug 2009 A widely used technique for coordinate-based meta-analyses of neuroimaging data is activation likelihood estimation (ALE). ALE assesses the overlap between foci based on modeling them as probability distributions centered at the respective ...

The free choice whether or not to respond after stimulus presentation.

30 Aug 2009 The concept of 'willed' actions has attracted attention during the last few years. Free choices have been associated with activations on the medial frontal surface, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the parietal lobe. Self-paced movements and ...

Spatiotemporal mapping of sex differences during attentional processing.

30 Aug 2009 Functional neuroimaging studies have increasingly aimed at approximating neural substrates of human cognitive sex differences elicited by visuospatial challenge. It has been suggested that females and males use different behaviorally relevant ...

Repetition suppression for performed hand gestures revealed by fMRI.

30 Aug 2009 The functional components of the human motor system that are used to retrieve and execute simple intransitive hand gestures were identified with a repetition suppression (RS) paradigm. Participants performed movements with the right hand to text ...

Neural correlates of resolving uncertainty in driver's decision making.

30 Aug 2009 Neural correlates of driving and of decision making have been investigated separately, but little is known about the underlying neural mechanisms of decision making in driving. Previous research discusses two types of decision making: ...

Intentional inhibition: how the "veto-area" exerts control.

30 Aug 2009 One important aspect of self-control is refraining voluntarily from already planned behavior, by a final intervention before commitment to action. Despite its crucial role in human existence, and clear social implications, this aspect of ...
