Description
Brain oscillations, or neural rhythms, reflect widespread functional connections between large-scale neural networks, as well as within cortical networks. As such they have been related to many aspects of human behaviour. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated the role of brain oscillations at distinct frequency bands in cognitive, sensory, and motor tasks. Consequentially, those rhythms also affect diverse aspects of human communication.

Laypeople think of wake, sleep, and dreaming as distinct states of the mind/brain but “in-between”, hybrid states are recognized. For example, daydreaming or, more scientifically, the default network occurs during wake. Equally, during sleep, lucid dreaming in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep presents as another hybrid state. But hybrid states are usually temporary. This book explores the possibility of an enduring hybrid wake-sleep-dream state,...

In 2003, Rachel A. Volberg wrote: "Why is it that gambling is not even on the radar when we consider the array of risks that adolescents must confront as they move towards adulthood?" Nowadays, after thirteen years, although much more is known about this particular form of risk behavior, there is still a general tendency, at least among laypersons, to not perceive gambling as a potential danger for youth and other population segments (e.g., individuals

Introduction: Adverse childhood experiences (ACE) refer to experiences of abuse, neglect or socio-familial dysfunction, within the first 18 years of life. These contribute to mortality and morbidity,in the long-term, both from a psychopathological or organic perspective later in life.Even though this clear correlation, insightful information regarding protective factors are yet to be determined

This work deals with three basic assumptions in contemporary drinking motive research. The first is that the four-dimensional model of drinking motives and links between the motive dimensions and alcohol use hold true among adolescents from different countries. The results of three empirical studies revealed striking cross-countries consistencies. This concerned not only the confirmation of the four-dimensional factor structure in the countries separately,...

The experience of using and interacting with the newest Virtual Reality and computing technologies is profoundly affected by the extent to which we feel ourselves to be really ‘present’ in computer-generated and -mediated augmented worlds. This feeling of 'Presence’, of “being inside the mediated world”, is key to understanding developments in applications such as interactive entertainment, gaming, psychotherapy, education, scientific visualisation,...

This chapter provides a perspective from the latest EEG evidence on how brain signaling informs the neurophysiological and neurocognitive mechanisms underlying recognition of socioemotional expression conveyed in human speech and voice. In addition, task demand and listener characteristics affect the neural responses underlying the decoding processes, revealing the role of attention deployment and interpersonal sensitivity in the neural decoding of...

DFT is the second most common cause of dementia with onset prior to 65 years in age, usually beginning during the fifth decade of life. The most prevalent subtype of DFT is the behavioral variant, accounting for approximately half of all cases. This is a brief abstract of a case study that demonstrates...

Attention has often been likened to spotlights and filters—devices that illuminate or screen out some inputs in favor of others. This largely passive conception of attention has been gradually replaced by a more dynamic and far-reaching process. We know that attentional processes augment neural processing at all levels, and in some cases, augmenting processing within the sense organs themselves.

The latest research in schizophrenia mainly focuses on the period during the first occurence of psychotic symptoms, when the progressive reduction of gray matter was observed. Structural changes could be mirrored in resting state functional connectivity of the brain. The aim of our study was: firstly, to compare functional connectome (rsFC) in patients with first episode of psychosis (FEP) and healthy controls (HC); secondly, to explore rsFC in both...

Background and Goal of Study: Emergence delirium (ED) is the most frequent brain dysfunction in children recovering from general anaesthesia. Postoperative delirium is related to prolonged duration of deep anaesthesia including burst suppression periods in elderly1,2. In children depth of anaesthesia as measured by Bispectral Index shows no correlation with ED3,4. The aim of this prospective, observational study (NCT02481999) was to determine whether...

There are several theories of executive function(s) that tend to share some theoretical overlap yet are also conceptually distinct, each bolstered by empirical data (Norman and Shallice, 1986; Shallice & Burgess, 1991; Stuss and Alexander, 2007; Burgess, Gilbert, & Dumentheil, 2007; Burgess & Shallice, 1996; Miyake et al., 2000). The notion that executive processes are supervisory, and most in demand in novel situations was an early conceptualization...
