Embodiment, Cognition and the World Wide Web

open access: yes, 2014
Cognitive embodiment refers to the hypothesis that cognitive processes of all kinds are rooted in perception and action. Recent findings in cognitive neuroscience revealed that the motor cortex, long confined to the mere role of action programming and ...

Visual Acuity does not Moderate Effect Sizes of Higher-Level Cognitive Tasks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background/study contextDeclining visual capacities in older adults have been posited as a driving force behind adult age differences in higher-order cognitive functions (e.g., the "common cause" hypothesis of Lindenberger & Baltes, 1994, Psychology ...

Learning place cells, grid cells and invariances with excitatory and inhibitory plasticity

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Neurons in the hippocampus and adjacent brain areas show a large diversity in their tuning to location and head direction, and the underlying circuit mechanisms are not yet resolved.

Laminar differences in functional oxygen metabolism in monkey visual cortex measured with calibrated fMRI

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Blood-oxygenation-level-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD fMRI) of cortical layers relies on the hemodynamic response and is biased toward large veins on the cortical surface. Functional changes in the cerebral metabolic rate

Responses of Neurons in Lateral Intraparietal Area Depend on Stimulus-Associated Reward During Binocular Flash Suppression

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019
Discovering neural correlates of subjective perception and dissociating them from sensory input has fascinated neuroscientists for a long time. Bistable and multistable perception phenomena have exhibited great experimental potential to address this ...

Impulsivity-Compulsivity Axis: Evidence of Its Clinical Validity to Individually Classify Subjects on the Use/Abuse of Information and Communication Technologies

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
The compulsive habit model proposed by Everitt and Robbins has accumulated important empirical evidence. One of their proposals is the existence of an axis, on which each a person with a particular addiction can be located depending on the evolutionary ...

Brightness illusions drive a neuronal response in the primary visual cortex under top-down modulation

open access: yesNature Communications
Brightness illusions are a powerful tool in studying vision, yet their neural correlates are poorly understood. Based on a human paradigm, we presented illusory drifting gratings to mice. Primary visual cortex (V1) neurons responded to illusory gratings,

Learning prediction error neurons in a canonical interneuron circuit

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Sensory systems constantly compare external sensory information with internally generated predictions. While neural hallmarks of prediction errors have been found throughout the brain, the circuit-level mechanisms that underlie their computation are ...

Cognitive processes in categorical and associative priming: a diffusion model analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cognitive processes and mechanisms underlying different forms of priming were investigated using a diffusion model approach. In a series of 6 experiments, effects of prime-target associations and of a semantic and affective categorical match of prime and
