Eye Gaze and Aging: Selective and Combined Effects of Working Memory and Inhibitory Control

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Eye-tracking is increasingly studied as a cognitive and biological marker for the early signs of neuropsychological and psychiatric disorders. However, in order to make further progress, a more comprehensive understanding of the age-related effects on ...

Executive Impairment in Huntington's Disease: Insights From a Systematic Review of the Literature

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Executive dysfunction in Huntington's disease follows a selective, stage‐dependent pattern, with early deficits in psychomotor speed, cognitive flexibility, inhibition, and working‐memory updating. Progression is associated with broader impairments in planning and attention.

The Benefits of Working Memory Capacity on Attentional Control under Pressure

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
The present study aimed to examine the effects of working memory capacity (WMC) and state anxiety (SA) on attentional control. WMC was manipulated by (a) dividing participants into low- and high-WMC groups (Experiment 1), and (b) using working memory ...

Cognitive control in individuals with heroin use disorder after prolonged methadone maintenance treatment

BMC Psychiatry
Background Although impaired cognitive control is common during the acute detoxification phase of substance use disorders (SUD) and is considered a major cause of relapse, it remains unclear after prolonged methadone maintenance treatment (MMT).

Structural and Functional Brain Changes in Children and Adolescents With Obesity

Obesity Reviews, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Obesity, particularly pediatric obesity, has dramatically increased over the last three decades, with a wide range of detrimental health outcomes, including negative consequences for brain neurodevelopment. The present article reviewed magnetic resonance imaging studies between January 2011 and March 2024 examining the brain's role in ...

Developing Clinically Practical Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Protocols to Improve Saccadic Eye Movement Control

Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2017
Recent research indicates that anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied over the frontal eye field (FEF) can be used to improve saccadic eye movement control in healthy young adults.

Structure of the antisaccade task.

, 2016
Participants first fixated on the center of the screen. Afterwards, a blank screen was presented followed by either a green or red central cue instructing participants to either make a pro or antisaccade, respectively.

The effects of task instructions on pro and antisaccade performance

, 2009
In the antisaccade task participants are required to overcome the strong tendency to saccade towards a sudden onset target, and instead make a saccade to the mirror image location.

Non-cholinergic modulation of antisaccade performance: a modafinil-nicotine comparison.

, 2007
INTRODUCTION: The antisaccade task provides a powerful tool with which to investigate the cognitive and neural systems underlying goal-directed behaviour, particularly in situations when the correct behavioural response requires the suppression of a ...

Preparatory neural networks are impaired in adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder during the antisaccade task [PDF]

, 2013
Adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often display executive function impairments, particularly in inhibitory control. The antisaccade task, which measures inhibitory control, requires one to suppress an automatic prosaccade toward
