A meta-analytic investigation of neurocognitive deficits in bipolar illness: profile and effects of clinical state.

30 Aug 2009 A meta-analysis of neuropsychological studies of patients with bipolar disorder comprised of 42 studies of 1,197 patients in euthymia, 13 studies consisting of 314 patients in a manic/mixed phase of illness, and 5 studies of 96 patients in a ...

Cross-modal emotional attention: emotional voices modulate early stages of visual processing.

30 Aug 2009 Emotional attention, the boosting of the processing of emotionally relevant stimuli, has, up to now, mainly been investigated within a sensory modality, for instance, by using emotional pictures to modulate visual attention. In real-life ...

The anterior N1 component as an index of modality shifting.

30 Aug 2009 Processing of a given target is facilitated when it is defined within the same (e.g., visual-visual), compared to a different (e.g., tactile-visual), perceptual modality as on the previous trial [Spence, C., Nicholls, M., & Driver, J. The cost of ...

An Internet study of prospective memory across adulthood.

30 Aug 2009 In an Internet study, 73,018 18-79-year-olds were asked to "remember to click the smiley face when it appears." A smiley face was present/absent at encoding, and participants were told to expect it "at the end of the test"/"later in the test." In ...

Aging, hearing acuity, and the attentional costs of effortful listening.

30 Aug 2009 A dual-task interference paradigm was used to investigate the effect of perceptual effort on recall of spoken word lists by young and older adults with good hearing and with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. In addition to poorer recall accuracy, ...

Eye movements and the perceptual span in older and younger readers.

30 Aug 2009 The size of the perceptual span (or the span of effective vision) in older readers was examined with the moving window paradigm (G. W. McConkie & K. Rayner, 1975). Two experiments demonstrated that older readers have a smaller and more symmetric ...

Replicating the positivity effect in picture memory in Koreans: evidence for cross-cultural generalizability.

30 Aug 2009 Older adults' relatively better memory for positive over negative material (positivity effect) has been widely observed in Western samples. This study examined whether a relative preference for positive over negative material is also observed in ...

Attentional bias for threat in older adults: moderation of the positivity bias by trait anxiety and stimulus modality.

30 Aug 2009 Socioemotional selectivity theory suggests that emotion regulation goals motivate older adults to preferentially allocate attention to positive stimuli and away from negative stimuli. This study examined whether anxiety moderates the effect of the ...

Aging and everyday judgments: the impact of motivational and processing resource factors.

30 Aug 2009 It has been hypothesized that reductions in cognitive resources might result in older adults engaging in less systematic processing than young adults when making everyday judgments. In 2 experiments, the authors tested individuals aged from 24 to 89 ...

Aging and fluency-based illusions in recognition memory.

30 Aug 2009 We examined age-related differences in susceptibility to fluency-based memory illusions. The results from 2 experiments, in which 2 different methods were used to enhance the fluency of recognition test items, revealed that older and young adults ...
