Gamma and Beta Oscillations in Human MEG Encode the Contents of Vibrotactile Working Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Ample evidence suggests that oscillations in the beta band represent quantitative information about somatosensory features during stimulus retention. Visual and auditory working memory (WM) research, on the other hand, has indicated a predominant role of

Investigating the interaction between white matter and brain state on tDCS-induced changes in brain network activity

open access: yesBrain Stimulation, 2021
Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of noninvasive brain stimulation whose potential as a cognitive therapy is hindered by our limited understanding of how participant and experimental factors influence its effects. Using

How creative is your writing? A linguistic creativity measure from computer science and cognitive psychology perspectives [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Workshop on Computational Approaches to Linguistic Creativity - CALC '09, 2009
We demonstrate that subjective creativity in sentence-writing can in part be predicted using computable quantities studied in Computer Science and Cognitive Psychology. We introduce a task in which a writer is asked to compose a sentence given a keyword. The sentence is then assigned a subjective creativity score by human judges.

Effects of Alzheimer’s disease plasma marker levels on multilayer centrality in healthy individuals

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background Changes in amyloid beta (Aβ) and phosphorylated tau brain levels are known to affect brain network organization but very little is known about how plasma markers can relate to these measures.

The relationship between physical activity, apolipoprotein E ε4 carriage, and brain health

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2020
Background Neuronal hyperexcitability and hypersynchrony have been described as key features of neurophysiological dysfunctions in the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum.

The Borrowers: Researching the cognitive aspects of translation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The paper considers the interdisciplinary interaction of research on the cognitive aspects of translation. Examples of influence from linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, reading and writing research and language technology are given,

Tau Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease Uniquely Affects Sulcal Depths

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Though it is widely known that tau deposition affects brain structure, the precise localization of these effects is poorly understood, especially in relation to gyral and sulcal anatomy. We investigated whether tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) preferentially affects sulci, and particularly sulcal depths.

Contextual responses drive a unique laminar signature in human V1

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Neuronal populations in visual cortex integrate stimulus-driven input from the retina with contextual input from neighboring neurons, each targeting distinct cortical layers.

Bayesian Optimization for Neuroimaging Pre-processing in Brain Age Classification and Prediction

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Neuroimaging-based age prediction using machine learning is proposed as a biomarker of brain aging, relating to cognitive performance, health outcomes and progression of neurodegenerative disease.

A CHEATER-DETECTION MODULE? DUBIOUS INTERPRETATIONS OF THE WASON SELECTION TASK AND LOGIC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
People usually fail the Wason selection task, choosing P and Q cases, when attempting to validate descriptive rules having the form “If P, then Q.” Yet they solve it, selecting P and not-Q cases, when validating deontic rules of the form “If P, then must
