Neurocognitive Predictors of Treatment Response to Randomized Treatment in Adults with Tic Disorders [PDF]

, 2017
Tourette\u27s disorder (TS) and chronic tic disorder (CTD) are neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by involuntary vocal and motor tics. Consequently, TS/CTD have been conceptualized as disorders of cognitive and motor inhibitory control.

The Effects of Acute Sleep Deprivation on Cognitive Control Mechanisms Associated With Hallucinatory Experiences

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep dysfunction can impair cognition and may play a causal role in the development of hallucinations. Deficits in cognitive control have been implicated in cognitive models of hallucinations. To better understand the underpinning role of cognition in the relationship between sleep and hallucinations, the current study aimed to investigate ...

Food Cue Reactivity and the Brain-Heart Axis During Cognitive Stress Following Clinically Relevant Weight Loss

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2019
Successful weight loss maintainers are more vulnerable to stress induced eating. The aim of our study was to determine what effect an attention-demanding cognitive performance task had on brain-heart reactivity to visual food cues in women who maintained

Bidirectional Causal Relationships Between Obesity and Executive Function in Children and Adolescents: A Genetic Instrumental Variable Analysis [PDF]

Dev Sci
ABSTRACT This study examines the causal relationship between obesity and executive function (EF)—including cognitive flexibility, inhibitory control, and working memory—using genetic instrumental variable analysis. A bidirectional two‐stage least squares (2SLS) analysis was conducted in 406 children and adolescents.

Acute Effects of Sleep Extension on Fatigue, Inhibitory Control, Short‐Term Vigilance and Neuromuscular Function in Youth Elite Ice Hockey Players: A Randomised Crossover Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Scheduling a 10‐h sleep opportunity (sleep extension) in elite youth athletes increased total sleep time by approximately 1 h compared to normal sleep. Cognitive performance on an inhibitory control task (20‐min colour multisource interference task; cMSIT) improved after sleep extension, and this was accompanied by an overall lower perception of ...

Psychotherapy and inhibitory control: Insights from fMRI research

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aim Despite the widespread clinical use of psychotherapy, the neural mechanisms linking treatment to changes in inhibitory control networks supporting self‐regulation remain unclear. This study addresses this gap by meta‐analyzing neuroimaging research on how psychotherapy affects brain regions involved in inhibitory control.

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 ...

Independent Effects of Age, Education, Verbal Working Memory, Motor Speed of Processing, Locality, and Morphosyntactic Category on Verb‐Related Morphosyntactic Production: Evidence From Healthy Aging

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the role of locality (a task/material‐related variable), demographic factors (age, education, and sex), cognitive capacities (verbal working memory [WM], verbal short‐term memory [STM], speed of processing [SOP], and inhibition), and morphosyntactic category (time reference and grammatical aspect) in verb‐related ...

Neuropsychological Decomposing Stroop Interference Into Different Cognitive Monitoring: An Exploratory Factor Analysis

Basic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2019
Introduction: There are two alternative explanations of the Stroop phenomenon. Several studies have revealed that the difference in performance on congruent and incongruent trials can arise from response interference.
