Abstract Past research has demonstrated that regular physical activity provides a myriad of physical, mental, and emotional benefits. The decision whether to partake in (PA) or remain sedentary appears be partially influenced by motivational systems. Research suggests left frontal alpha asymmetry is neural marker approach motivation. However, studies have not explored habitual levels PA behavior relate this neurophysiological signal. Across two studies, individuals completed measures using...
Debate exists as to the effects of anxiety in performance-based studies. However, no studies have examined influence motivation both preparation a motor movement and during performance. The present study measured beta activation for execution effort expenditure rewards task (EEfRT), button-pressing consisting easy hard trials. Results indicated that (i.e., reduced activation) was greater trials than Additionally, decreased increased) over course trial execution. These results suggest is...
Research suggests that traditional cultural factors are protective against mental health conditions in American Indian (AI) populations. This study aims to determine if cognitive control is a neurocognitive mechanism of the role spirituality AI people with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Participants self-identified as (n = 52) and included individuals GAD 16) without 36). Electroencephalography was collected during stop-signal task probe using P3 event-related potential. Higher levels...
Past work on motivation has primarily studied dichotomous distinctions of (e.g., extrinsic or intrinsic). However, focusing the overall motivational intensity may be better at accentuating unique differences within and between varying motivators as it pertains to impetus act. Specifically, influences neural patterns beta band frequency (13-30 Hz) measured by electroencephalography (EEG) that enable motor-action preparation, a correlate motivated movement. The primary aim across three...
Research suggests that disproportionate exposure to risk factors places American Indian (AI) peoples at higher for substance use disorders (SUD). Although SUD is linked striatal prioritization of drug rewards over other appetitive stimuli, there are gaps in the literature related investigation aversive valuation processing, and inclusion AI samples. To address these gaps, this study compared anticipatory gain loss processing between AI-identified with (SUD+; n = 52) without (SUD-; 35) groups...
A resilience-based approach in American Indian (AI) communities focuses on inherent sociocultural assets that may act as protective resilience buffers linked to mitigated mental health risks (e.g., deep-rooted spiritual, robust social support networks). Executive control functions are implicated mechanisms for factors, but little evidence exists the underlying neurocognitive resilience. This study examined how sustainable and community-centric factors of Native Spirituality were neural...
This study aimed to test whether there are sex differences in the relationship between impulsivity and amphetamine use disorder (AMP).
Abnormalities of the inferior vena cava are rare. Its embryological development occurs between sixth and eighth week gestation depends on persistence or regression three pairs veins: posterior cardinal veins, subcardinal veins supracardinal veins. The type congenital alteration moment that embryogenesis is altered. most frequent clinical presentation deep vein thrombosis, which mainly in young men. We report a 16-year-old male presenting with edema left leg. No risk factor for thrombosis was...
