Aging and the prevalence of 'ironic' action errors under avoidant instruction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Action errors can put older adults at risk of injury. Our study is the first to investigate whether older adults are more prone than younger adults to making 'ironic' motor errors (i.e., actions they have been instructed not to perform), or over ...

Brain Localisation of Memory Chunks in Chessplayers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Chess experts store domain-specific representations in their long-term memory; due to the activation of such representations, they perform with high accuracy in tasks that require the maintenance of previously seen information.

Boron‐Doped Nano‐Crystalline Coated Carbon Fibers for Phasic Dopamine Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This uniform coating presents a mix of graphitic and diamond‐like carbon to create a mechanically and electrically robust alternative for the electrochemical detection of dopamine. The electrodes in this work possess the equivalent sensitivity to the state‐of‐the‐art FSCV dopamine detecting electrodes, whilst demonstrating an ability to withstand ...

Neural correlates of spatial location mapping on the Simon effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Previous studies show that the effect of practice with incompatible location mapping results in a reverse Simon effect. However, the neural correlates of this phenomenon are yet to be clarified. This study used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

Stimulus affective valence reverses spatial compatibility effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In spatial compatibility tasks, the Reaction Time to right-side stimuli is shorter for right key responses (compatible condition) than for left key responses (incompatible condition) and vice-versa for left-side stimuli.

Engineered ETS1‐Nanoconjugate Restores Immune Homeostasis through Dual Immune‐Vascular Modulation in Relapsing and Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The biomimetic nanoplatform IMNP (ETS1 pDNA/PBAE@ITP‐MM) undergoes targeted disassembly at inflammatory vascular sites to release the ETS1 plasmid (pETS1). This release initiates a cascade of effects that inhibit pathogenic pathways and support immune homeostasis. (Abbreviations: EndMT, endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition; EC, endothelial cell; TC, T

No influence of sitting vs. standing on Simon effects

open access: yesActa Psychologica
In the today's western world, many humans spend a lot of time in a seated position which is also the most dominant position during cognitive experiments.

Cognitive Science and Psychology [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The protocol algorithm abstracted from a human cognizer's own narrative in the course of doing a cognitive task is an explanation of the corresponding mental activity in Pylyshyn's (1984) virtual machine model of mind.

Model‐Driven Optimization of Subcutaneous Polymer Prodrugs Achieves Cancer Remission in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) model was developed to evaluate multiple dosing regimens for subcutaneously administered water‐soluble polymer prodrug for cancer therapy. The model enabled prediction of in vivo performance and contributed to the optimization of anticancer efficacy.

The Effect of Script Similarity on Executive Control in Bilinguals

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
The need for executive control (EC) during bilingual language processing is thought to enhance these abilities, conferring a ‘bilingual advantage’ on EC tasks.
