To examine the relationships among cognitive representations of diabetes, diabetes-specific health behaviors, and quality life using Leventhal Diefenbach's self-regulation model illness (Leventhal H, Diefenbach M: The active side cognition. In Mental Representation in Health Illness. SkeltonJA, Croyle RT, Eds. New York, Springer-Verlag, 1991, p. 247-272).This research involved secondary analysis a mailed survey completed by 296 adults (ages 20-90 years). Structural equation modeling was...
Abstract Rationale Dopaminergic dysfunction is implicated in disorders of impulsivity and inattention. The rodent continuous performance test (rCPT) has been used to quantify changes attention impulsivity. Objective To examine the roles dopamine receptors behaviours measured rCPT variable stimulus duration (vSD) intertrial interval schedules (vITI) using DA receptor antagonists. Methods Two cohorts 35 36 female C57BL/6JRj mice were examined separately rCPT, vSD, vITI schedules, respectively....
Abstract Rationale Noradrenergic dysfunction is associated with disorders of impulsivity and inattention. The rodent continuous performance test (rCPT) quantifies changes in attention impulsivity. Objective To use NA receptor antagonists to examine the roles on behaviours measured rCPT variable stimulus duration (vSD) intertrial interval (vITI) schedules. Methods Two cohorts 36 female C57BL/6JRj mice were examined separately vSD vITI Both received following adrenoceptors: α 1 (doxazosin,...
Rodent operant tests that include premature responses (PR) as a measure of impulsivity commonly use variable intertrial interval (vITI) schedules. The rodent continuous performance test (rCPT) is suitable for vITI schedule.We optimised the analysis rCPT schedule with intervals (ITIs) 3, 6, and 12 s. Examining nature first (FiT) following touches (FoT) to blank screen led separate quantification these two behaviours into level (%FiT) following-to-first ratio (FoT/FiT).FiTs occurred more...
