Impact of Music on Working Memory in Rwanda
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Previous research shows that listening to pleasant, stimulating and familiar music is likely to improve working memory performance. The benefits of music on cognition have been widely studied in Western populations, but not in other cultures. The purpose

Inflammation predicts sexual arousability in healthy women
Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2021 Background: Though many women report sexual arousal difficulties, the mechanisms driving these difficulties are unclear. Sexual response relies on a host of psychophysiological processes that have bidirectional relationships with inflammation ...

Effects of arousal and movement on secondary somatosensory and visual thalamus
eLife, 2021 Neocortical sensory areas have associated primary and secondary thalamic nuclei. While primary nuclei transmit sensory information to cortex, secondary nuclei remain poorly understood.

The pedunculopontine nucleus: From posture and locomotion to neuroepigenetics
AIMS Neuroscience, 2019 In this review, we discuss first an example of one of the symptoms of PD, freezing of gait (FOG), then we will turn to the use of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) to treat PD, and the original studies that led to ...

Arousal Contributions to Resting-State fMRI Connectivity and Dynamics
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) is being widely used for charting brain connectivity and dynamics in healthy and diseased brains. However, the resting state paradigm allows an unconstrained fluctuation of brain arousal, which

Nocturnal swallowing augments arousal intensity and arousal tachycardia [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance Spontaneous arousals from sleep are associated with tachycardia and blood pressure responses excessive to physiological need. The prevailing view is that stereotyped autonomic activity is generated by feedforward inputs from cortical and subcortical systems implicated in the arousal, akin to autonomic activation with emotional ...

Pupillometry of Groove: Evidence for Noradrenergic Arousal in the Link Between Music and Movement
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 The capacity to entrain motor action to rhythmic auditory stimulation is highly developed in humans and extremely limited in our closest relatives. An important aspect of auditory-motor entrainment is that not all forms of rhythmic stimulation motivate ...

Personality and the EEG: Arousal and emotional arousability
Personality and Individual Differences, 1992 impulsivity and anxiety were derived from a joint analysis of the EPI and Karolinska Scales of Personality (KSP) questionnaires. The results showed, as expected. lower arousal, defined by more posterior theta activity, in impulsive subjects than in non-impulsives. These differences extended across all conditions.
