Younger age is a good predictor of better executive function after surgery for pituitary adenoma in adults.

27 Jul 2009 Pituitary adenomas, even after successful treatment, are associated with cognitive dysfunctions. We hypothesized that an association between the age of the patients at pituitary surgery and neuropsychological outcome may exist. Forty-two patients ...

The Brixton Spatial Anticipation Test as a test for executive function: validity in patient groups and norms for older adults.

27 Jul 2009 Impairments in executive functioning frequently occur after acquired brain damage, in psychiatric disorders, and in relation to aging. The Brixton Spatial Anticipation Test is a relatively new measure for assessing the ability to detect and follow a ...

Brain activation during executive processes in schizophrenia.

27 Jul 2009 Schizophrenia patients show some deficits in executive processes (impaired behavioural performance and abnormal brain functioning). The aim of this study is to explore the brain activity of schizophrenia patients during different inhibitory tasks. ...

INECO Frontal Screening (IFS): a brief, sensitive, and specific tool to assess executive functions in dementia.

26 Jul 2009 Although several brief sensitive screening tools are available to detect cognitive dysfunction, few have been developed to quickly assess executive functioning (EF) per se. We designed a new brief tool to evaluate EF in neurodegenerative diseases. ...

Impaired financial capacity in late life depression is associated with cognitive performance on measures of executive functioning and attention.

26 Jul 2009 Few studies have evaluated the prevalence of impairments of financial capacity among individuals with psychiatric disorders. Late life depression (LLD) is a common psychiatric disorder associated with significant disability and cognitive impairment. ...

Symptoms as mediators of the relationship between neurocognition and functional outcome in schizophrenia: a meta-analysis.

20 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Neurocognitive functioning in schizophrenia has received considerable attention because of its robust prediction of functional outcome. Psychiatric symptoms, in particular negative symptoms, have also been shown to predict functional ...

Cognitive discrepancies in children at the ends of the bell curve: a note of caution for clinical interpretation.

20 Jul 2009 Discrepancies between IQ scores on the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI) and scores from the Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) were examined at different levels of intellectual functioning in 470 normal-functioning ...

Multimodal cognitive therapy: combining treatments that bypass cognitive deficits and deal with reasoning and appraisal biases.

18 Jul 2009 The process of recovery in schizophrenia involves resolving persistent symptoms, addressing cognitive impairments, and improving functional outcomes. Our research group has demonstrated the efficacy of cognitive adaptation training (CAT)--a ...
