Whole‐Night Gentle Rocking Improves Sleep in Poor Sleepers With Insomnia Complaints

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Specific brain oscillations can be manipulated during sleep to improve sleep quality and memory performance. We previously demonstrated that continuous rocking stimulation (0.25 Hz, lateral movement) applied to good sleepers during sleep enhanced stable deep sleep, boosted NREM oscillations (spindles and slow waves) and memory consolidation ...

All Is Relative—A Call for Considering “Physiologically Informed” Control Conditions to Improve the Mechanistic Understanding of the Effects of Physical Exercise on Cognition

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that drive the benefits of physical exercise on cognitive performance. A key element for a better understanding of a particular phenomenon (e.g., the mediators of the exercise‐cognition interaction) is the selection of an appropriate control condition/group as the basis for causal ...

Another Differentiated Look at Emotions: A Replication Study on Associations Between Gaze Behavior During the Processing of Affective Videos and Emotional Granularity

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with high emotional granularity (EG; the capacity to differentiate among discrete emotional states) tend to employ more effective emotion regulation strategies during negative affective states. Recent eye‐tracking evidence suggests that EG is associated with the frequency of revisits to negative emotional stimuli.

Blood flow restriction exercise during microgravity exposure in parabolic flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report evaluates whether it is possible to perform blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise during exposure to microgravity. The objectives were three‐fold: (1) to determine if a personalised tourniquet system (PTS) hardware technology performs nominally and enables BFR exercise in microgravity; (2) to determine if BFR augments the ...
