A short review and primer on cardiovascular signals in human computer interaction applications [PDF]
The use of psychophysiologic signals in human-computer interaction is a growing field with significant potential for future smart personalised systems. Working in this emerging field requires comprehension of different physiological signals and analysis techniques.

The Sleep Opportunity, Need and Ability (SONA) Theory
ABSTRACT ‘How much sleep does one need?’ is a critical question that has been difficult to answer. The long history of sleep research has culminated in population‐derived normative values of 7 to 9 h of sleep per night to avoid dysfunction. Such a wide range is sufficiently large that one cannot know what is required for any given individual.

Mathematical Model of Emotional Habituation to Novelty: Modeling with Bayesian Update and Information Theory [PDF]
Novelty is an important factor of creativity in product design. Acceptance of novelty, however, depends on one's emotions. Yanagisawa, the last author, and his colleagues previously developed a mathematical model of emotional dimensions associated with novelty such as arousal (surprise) and valence.

If or When? Uncertainty\u27s Role in Anxious Anticipation [PDF]
Uncertainty is often associated with subjective distress and a potentiated anxiety response. Occurrence uncertainty (OU), or the inability to predict if a threat will occur, has never been compared experimentally with temporal uncertainty (TU), or the ...

Habituation is a highly conserved phenomenon that remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Invertebrate model systems, like Caenorhabditis elegans, can be a powerful tool for investigating this fundamental process.

ABSTRACT Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a highly debilitating condition that develops after trauma exposure. Dysregulation in extinction memory consolidation (i.e., the ability to remember that trauma‐related stimuli no longer signal danger) is proposed to underlie PTSD development. Disruptions in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep are thought to

The habituation of sexual responses in men and women [PDF]
xii, 93 leaves ; 29 cmStudies investigating the sexual responses of men and women in the laboratory reveal reliable sex differences. Men’s genital and subjective sexual responses exhibit a high degree of concordance and are category-specific (i.e., are ...

Post-menopausal women exhibit greater interleukin-6 responses to mental stress than older men [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute stress triggers innate immune responses and elevation in circulating cytokines including interleukin-6 (IL-6). The effect of sex on IL-6 responses remains unclear due to important limitations of previous studies. PURPOSE: The purpose of

Visual recognition memory, manifest as long-term habituation, requires synaptic plasticity in V1
Familiarity with stimuli that bring neither reward nor punishment, manifested through behavioral habituation, enables organisms to detect novelty and devote cognition to important elements of the environment.
