Applications of Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) in Studying Cognitive Development: The Case of Mathematics and Language

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
In this review, we aim to highlight the application of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a useful neuroimaging technique for the investigation of cognitive development.

Concept Cells and the Neural Bases of Human Memory

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Single‐neuron recordings from the medial temporal lobe of patients undergoing epilepsy surgery have revealed “concept cells” that respond selectively and invariantly to meaningful stimuli such as specific people, places, or objects. These responses offer a unique window into how individual neurons encode high‐level, multimodal representations ...

Applying Functional Near Infrared (fNIR) Spectroscopy to Enhance MIS Research

AIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction, 2014
This review paper introduces the emerging technology of optical brain imaging, also known as functional near infrared (fNIR) spectroscopy, and discusses its potential role in enhancing theory and methodology used in MIS research. We discuss basic fNIR principles including the technique’s safe and portable nature, which allows ambulatory brain activity ...

Speech Neurophysiology in Realistic Contexts: Big Hype or Big Leap?

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 12, June 2026.
Speech neurophysiology is moving from controlled listening tasks to dynamic, socially rich interactions, challenging traditional methods. This shift promises deeper insights into how the brain processes and represents speech in real‐world contexts, while introducing new analytical complexities.

The Effects of Different Attentional Focus During Walking on Prefrontal Cortical Activation in Young Healthy Adults

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 11, June 2026.
Dual‐task walking did not significantly modulate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activation, although a left‐lateralized pattern was observed. Gait performance (speed, cadence and stride length) remained comparable between single‐task and external attention conditions, while divided attention impaired gait parameters. Notably, internal attention reduces

Evidence of Physiological Comodulation During Human–Animal Interaction: A Systematic Review

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1560, Issue 1, June 2026.
From thirty‐seven studies on physiological comodulation in human–animal interaction, dogs and horses emerged as the most studied species, primarily in therapeutic and companionship settings. Cardiac and hormonal signals dominated the analyses, with correlation methods prevailing.

Cognitive flexibility-related prefrontal activation in preschoolers: A biological approach to temperamental effortful control

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2019
Individual differences in temperament have been theorized to be supported by differential recruitment of key neural regions, resulting in the distinct patterns of behavior observed throughout life. Although a compelling model, its rigorous and systematic
