Representing magnitude information in various dimensions, including space, quantity, and time, is an important function of the human brain. Many previous studies reported that numerical spatial magnitudes could be mutually influenced through a “mental number line”. In this study, we address question whether nontemporal dimensions time are represented independently or not. Observers judged duration stimuli while four types information, dots, size open squares, luminance solid numeric value...
Increasing neuroimaging evidence suggests an association between impulsive decision-making behavior and task-related brain activity. However, the relationship impulsivity in resting-state activity remains unknown. To address this issue, we used functional MRI to record from human adults during a resting state delay discounting task (DDT) that requires choosing immediate smaller reward larger delayed reward. In experiment I, identified four DDT-related networks. The money network (the...
Background The default mode network (DMN) is a set of brain regions that exhibit synchronized low frequency oscillations at resting-state, and believed to be relevant attention self-monitoring. As the anterior cingulate cortex hippocampus are impaired in drug addiction meanwhile parts DMN, present study examined addiction-related alteration functional connectivity DMN. Methodology Resting-state magnetic resonance imaging data chronic heroin users (14 males, age: 30.1±5.3 years, range from 22...
Introduction : Excessive Internet use (EIU), also described as addiction or pathological use, has already become a serious social problem around the world. Some researchers consider EIU kind of behavioral addiction. However, there are few experimental studies on cognitive functions excessive users (EIUers) and limited data available to compare with other addictive behaviors, such drug abuse gambling. Methods In this study, we examined EIUers' decision-making prepotent response inhibition....
In tonal languages such as Mandarin Chinese, a lexical tone carries semantic information and is preferentially processed in the left brain hemisphere of native speakers revealed by functional MRI or positron emission tomography studies, which likely measure temporally aggregated neural events including those at an attentive stage auditory processing. Here, we demonstrate that early processing preattentive actually lateralized to right hemisphere. We frequently presented Chinese meaningful...
Hypothyroidism is related to multiple cognitive deficits including working memory dysfunction, of which the underlying neural correlates were rarely studied. In this study, impact hypothyroidism on circuits involved in processing was explored by functional magnetic resource imaging (fMRI).Using fMRI, we conducted a longitudinal study investigating alterations brain function during task, four-digit backward recall (BR) and forward (FR), hypothyroid patients controls.fMRI scan used 13 female...
Abstract Modulating the temporoparietal junction (TPJ), especially right counterpart, shows promises in enhancing social cognitive ability. However, it is ambiguous whether functional lateralization of TPJ determines people's responsiveness to brain stimulation. Here, this issue investigated with an individual difference approach. Forty‐five participants attended three sessions transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) experiments and one neuroimaging session. The results support...
A function of working memory is to remember the temporal sequence events, often occurring across different sensory modalities. To study neural correlates this function, we conducted an event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) experiment with a cross-modal task. Subjects were required recall auditory digits and visual locations either in mixed order (cross-modality) or separate (within-modality). identify brain regions involved order, compared blood oxygenation...
Excessive computer game playing (ECGP) has already become a serious social problem. However, limited data from experimental lab studies are available about the negative consequences of ECGP on players' cognitive characteristics. In present study, we compared three groups participants (current participants, previous and control participants) Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) task. The performed significantly better than which suggested facilitation effect games visuospatial abilities. Moreover,...
Abstract The questions of whether and how indiscriminate drug‐related stimuli could influence drug‐users are important to our understanding addictive behavior, but the answers still inconclusive. In present preliminary functional magnetic resonance imaging study using a backward masking paradigm, effect smoking‐related on 10 smokers nonsmokers was examined. BOLD response showed significant reduction ( P = 0.001) in right amygdala when they viewed did not perceive masked stimuli, while no...
Glaucoma is a lifelong disease with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) as the main risk factor, and reduction of IOP remains major treatment for this disease. However, current IOP-lowering therapies are far from being satisfactory. We have demonstrated that lentivirus-mediated exoenzyme C3 transferase (C3) expression in rat monkey eyes induced relatively long-term reduction. now show intracameral injection self-complementary AAV2 containing gene into mouse resulted morphological changes...
The authors investigated the units of selective attention within working memory. In Experiment 1, a group participants kept 1 count and location in memory updated them repeatedly random order. Another were instructed to achieve same goal by memorizing verbal spatial information an integrative way as moving digit. behavioral data showed that switching between properties integrated working-memory item was faster than respective different items. 2 demonstrated this facilitation cannot be simply...
The rejection of unfair offers can be affected by both negative emotions (e.g. anger and moral disgust) deliberate cognitive processing behavioral consequences concerns maintaining social fairness protecting personal reputation). However, whether are sufficient to motivate this behavior is still controversial. With modified ultimatum games, a recent study (Yamagishi T, et al. (2009) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 106∶11520–11523) found that people reject even when increases inequity, they could not...
