Motivation, emotion, and their inhibitory control mirrored in brain oscillations
GG Knyazev - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2007 - Elsevier
Recent studies suggest brain oscillations as a mechanism for cerebral integration. Such
integration can exist across a number of functional domains, with different frequency rhythms …

Allostatic load in bipolar disorder: implications for pathophysiology and treatment
Current literature on the effects of chronic stress in general health converges to the concept
of allostatic load (AL). AL is the bodily 'wear and tear'that emerges with sustained allostatic …

The cortical generators of P3a and P3b: a LORETA study
The P3 is probably the most well known component of the brain event-related potentials
(ERPs). Using a three-tone oddball paradigm two different components can be identified: the …

The molecular genetics of cognition: dopamine, COMT and BDNF
The important contribution of genetic factors to the development of cognition and intelligence
is widely acknowledged, but identification of these genes has proven to be difficult. Given a …

Age-related decline in brain resources modulates genetic effects on cognitive functioning
Individual differences in cognitive performance increase from early to late adulthood, likely
reflecting influences of a multitude of factors. We hypothesize that losses in neurochemical …
