Measurement of Social Cognition in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Population Based Study
(2016)Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease. Executive dysfunction is common in patients with ALS, with up to 50% of patients performing within an impaired range. ... -
Menstrual cycle phase modulates cognitive control over male but not female stimuli
(2008)Evolutionary selection pressures have been one of the factors proposed to underlie sex differences in inhibitory control. Consequently, inhibitory control may vary as a function of the menstrual cycle and may be modulated ... -
Mental models and pragmatics: Author's response
(Cambridge University Press, 2000)Van der Henst argues that the theory of mental models lacks a pragmatic component. He fills the gap with the notion that reasoners draw the most relevant conclusions. We agree, but argue that theories need an element of ... -
Metacognitive and online error awareness deficits after prefrontal cortex lesions
(2013)Awareness of deficits after brain injury represents a significant clinical and theoretical challenge, but relatively little is known about the neuroanatomical correlates of specific types of deficit awareness. We examined ... -
Methylphenidate improves some but not all measures of ATTENTION, as measured by the TEA-Ch in medication-naïve children with ADHD
(2013)The Test of Everyday Attention for Children (TEA-Ch) is a reliable neuropsychological assessment of attention control in children. Methylphenidate (MPH) is an effective treatment to improve attentional difficulties in ... -

Modeling an auditory stimulated brain under altered states of consciousness using the generalized ising model
(2020)Propofol is a short-acting medication that results in decreased levels of consciousness and is used for general anesthesia. Although it is the most commonly used anesthetic in the world, much remains unknown about the ... -
Modulation of human corticospinal excitability by paired associative stimulation.
(2013)Paired Associative Stimulation (PAS) has come to prominence as a potential therapeutic intervention for the treatment of brain injury/disease, and as an experimental method with which to investigate Hebbian principles of ... -
Moving from family care to residential and supported accommodation: a national, longitudinal study of people with intellectual disabilities
(American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD), 2011)A cohort of nearly 11,000 persons was traced over 8 years to determine those who had moved from family care and those who had remained. The majority (85%) continued to live with families, and, for two thirds (67%), no ... -
Multiphasic value biases in fast-paced decisions
(2023)Perceptual decisions are biased toward higher-value options when overall gains can be improved. When stimuli demand immediate reactions, the neurophysiological decision process dynamically evolves through distinct phases ... -
Multiple neuronal networks mediate sustained attention
(MIT Press, 2003)& Sustained attention def icits occur i n several neuropsychi- atric di sorders. However, the underlying neurobiol ogical mechani sms are stil l i ncompletely understood. To that end, f unctional MRI was used to ... -
Multisensory processing in review: From physiology to behaviour
(Brill Academic, 2010)Research in multisensory processes has exploded over the last decade. Tremendous advances have been made in a variety of fields from single-unit neural recordings and functional brain imaging through to behaviour, perception ... -
A national evaluation of the Irish public health counselling in primary care service examination of initial effectiveness data.
(2021)Background The Counselling in Primary Care service (CIPC) is the first and only nationally available public counselling service in the Republic of Ireland. This study provides initial data for the effectiveness of ... -
The neural basis of video gaming
(2011)Video game playing is a frequent recreational activity. Previous studies have reported an involvement of dopamine-related ventral striatum. However, structural brain correlates of video game playing have not been investigated. ... -
The neural correlates of deficient error awareness in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
(2009)The ability to detect and correct errors is critical to adaptive control of behaviour and represents a discrete neuropsychological function. A number of studies have highlighted that attention-deficit/hyperactivity ...
