ABSTRACT When people are working on creative tasks, they make progress in conscious thought (CT) and unconscious (UT) processes. UT occurs outside awareness, unlike CT, it is independent of memory resources. Previous studies suggest more influential under certain conditions, known as the effect. Typically, these utilize a paradigm where participants divided into CT groups: group reflects task, while engages distraction. However, effect inconsistent across studies. This study aims to explore...
ABSTRACT The bilateral supramarginal gyri (SMGs) have been implicated in sensorimotor control of speech production, yet their precise roles and interhemispheric interactions are poorly understood. This event‐related potential study employed dual‐site continuous theta burst stimulation (c‐TBS) over the SMGs simultaneously to investigate functional dynamics vocal motor control. Following unilateral c‐TBS SMG as well sham stimulation, participants vocalized vowel sounds while exposed unexpected...
The posterior superior temporal gyrus (pSTG) has been implicated in the integration of auditory feedback and motor system for controlling vocal production. However, question as to whether how pSTG is causally involved control currently unclear. To this end, present study selectively stimulated left or right with continuous theta burst stimulation (c-TBS) healthy participants, then used event-related potentials investigate neurobehavioral changes response altered during pitch regulation....
The supramarginal gyrus (SMG) has been implicated in auditory-motor integration for vocal production. However, whether the SMG is bilaterally or unilaterally involved auditory feedback control of production a causal manner remains unclear. present event-related potential (ERP) study investigated roles left and right to auditory-vocal using neuronavigated continuous theta burst stimulation (c-TBS). Twenty-four young adults produced sustained vowel phonations heard their voice unexpectedly...
The utilization of mobile health (m-health) has rapidly expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic, and there is still a lack relevant clinical data pertaining to chronic low-back pain (CLBP) management. This study was designed compare effectiveness m-health-based exercise (via guidance plus education) versus guidance) CLBP
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive technique for modulating brain activity. However, selecting optimal control protocols to account their neural and non-neural effects remains challenge. To this end, the present event-related potential (ERP) study investigated behavioral of three commonly used protocols, namely sham real with continuous theta burst (c-TBS) over vertex primary visual cortex (V1), on given task manipulating pitch in voice auditory feedback. The results...
The supplementary motor area (SMA) has been implicated in the feedforward control of speech production. Whether this region is involved through auditory feedback, however, remains uncertain. present event-related potential (ERP) study examined role left SMA vocal pitch regulation a causal manner by combining feedback manipulations and neuronavigated continuous theta bust stimulation (c-TBS). After receiving c-TBS over or site (vertex), twenty young adults vocalized vowel sound /u/ while...
Abstract Current models of speech motor control propose a role for the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) in feedforward production. There is evidence, however, that has implicated functional relevance IFG neuromotor processing vocal feedback errors. The present event-related potential (ERP) study examined whether causally linked to auditory production with high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation (HD-tACS). After receiving active or sham HD-tACS over at 6 70 Hz, 20...
Developing efficient tools for assessing general cognitive functions in older adults is essential. Previous studies found that inhibition of return (IOR) occurred later the than younger. However, little known about relationship between onset time IOR (IOR-OT) and aging population. The present study examined this issue investigated potential using IOR-OT as an index functioning adults. In two studies, healthy younger was measured by a modified Posner peripheral cueing task, were evaluated...
Accumulating evidence suggests that impairment in auditory-vocal integration characterized by abnormally enhanced vocal compensations for auditory feedback perturbations contributes to hypokinetic dysarthria Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, treatment of this abnormality remains a challenge. The present study examined whether abnormalities auditory-motor pitch regulation PD can be modulated neuronavigated continuous theta burst stimulation (c-TBS) over the left supplementary motor area...
Abstract Objective The cause of increased knee pain related to quadriceps weakness in osteoarthritis remains unclear. This study aimed assess the impact alterations effusion-synovitis, a special kind nociceptive structure, on changes associated with weakness. Methods Based Osteoarthritis Initiative cohort, knees comprehensive records strength, and assessments at baseline, 12-month 24-month intervals were included. Quadriceps strength was measured isometrically while effusion-synovitis...

Background Accumulating evidence has shown significant contributions of the right cerebellum to auditory-motor integration for vocal production. Whether left is likewise involved in motor control, however, remains unclear. Methods By applying neuronavigated continuous and intermittent theta burst stimulation (cTBS/iTBS) over cerebellar lobule VII (Crus I), present event-related potential (ERP) study investigated whether exerts causal effects modulating auditory feedback control pitch After...
Attention priority of reward history, also called value-driven attentional capture (VDAC), is different from that saliency or contingency. The magnitude VDAC was found to be correlated with working memory capacity, but how cognitive control interacts the allocation association not clear. Here we examined whether distraction by learned color-reward would change under load conditions. Participants were first trained associations searching a green/red circle low/high reward. Then, during test...
