Electrophysiological evidence reveals affective evaluation deficits early in stimulus processing in patients with panic disorder.

Cognitive and neurobiological accounts of clinical anxiety and depression were examined via event-related brain potentials (ERPs) recorded from patients with panic disorder and healthy controls as they performed an old/new recognition memory task with ...

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients are impaired in remembering temporal order and in judging their own performance.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has been related to frontostriatal dysfunction, but some inconsistencies between studies and a relative paucity of neuropsychological research still characterizes the study of OCD. We compared 28 patients with OCD and ...

Chronic citicoline increases phosphodiesters in the brains of healthy older subjects: an in vivo phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy study.

RATIONALE: Phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) in brain cell membranes decreases with age. Evidence from both animal and in vitro studies indicates that CDP-choline (citicoline) administration may increase phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) synthesis and might ...

Age dissociates recency and lag recency effects in free recall.

The temporal relations among word-list items exert a powerful influence on episodic memory retrieval. Two experiments were conducted with younger and older adults in which the age-related recall deficit was examined by using a decomposition method to the ...

The emergent generation effect and hypermnesia: influences of semantic and nonsemantic generation tasks.

The generation effect is moderated by experimental design, affecting recall in within-subjects designs but typically not in between-subjects designs. However, N. W. Mulligan (2001) found that the generation effect emerged over repeated recall tests in a ...

Structure of preschool phonological sensitivity: overlapping sensitivity to rhyme, words, syllables, and phonemes.

Phonological sensitivity is an important causal variable in reading acquisition; however, there is controversy concerning its nature. One view holds that sensitivity to various linguistic units reflects independent abilities, whereas another holds ...

Phase-coupling of theta-gamma EEG rhythms during short-term memory processing.

Because of the importance of oscillations as a general phenomenon of neuronal activity the use of EEG spectral analysis is among the most important approaches for studying human information processing. Usually, oscillations at different frequencies occur ...

Pseudoword and real word memory in unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy.

Recognition memory for pronounceable pseudowords (PWs), real words, and degraded photographs of unfamiliar faces, was examined in 45 patients with unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), before and after Anterior Temporal Lobectomy, to test predictions ...

Posterior parietal cortex is implicated in continuous switching between verbal fluency tasks: an fMRI study with clinical implications.

We investigated whether posterior parietal cortex controls attentional switching when the tasks involve neither spatial nor visual cognition. Normal volunteers were scanned using functional MRI (fMRI). In all conditions, subjects were required to ...

Articulatory complexity at item boundaries in serial recall: the case of Welsh and English digit span.

The proposition that the difference in memory span between Welsh digits and English digits is accounted for by the longer articulatory duration of Welsh digits is critically reexamined. Two methods of measuring digit duration are contrasted. One is ...
