Delay of gratification in childhood linked to cortical interactions with the nucleus accumbens.
Delay of gratification (DG) is the ability to forego immediate temptations in the service of obtaining larger, delayed rewards. An extensive body of behavioral research has revealed that DG ability in childhood is associated with a host of important outcomes throughout development, and that attentional focus away from temptations underlies this ability. In this study, we conducted a functional ...
متن کاملSynaptic interactions among excitatory afferents to nucleus accumbens neurons: hippocampal gating of prefrontal cortical input.
The interactions among excitatory inputs arising from the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus, and innervating nucleus accumbens neurons were studied using in vivo intracellular recording techniques. Neurons recorded in the accumbens displayed one of three activity states: (1) silent, (2) spontaneously firing at low, constant rates, or (3) a bistable membrane potential, characterized b...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولNMDA and dopamine interactions in the nucleus accumbens modulate cortical acetylcholine release.
The nucleus accumbens (NAC) plays a key role in directing appropriate motor output following the presentation of behaviorally relevant stimuli. As such, we postulate that accumbens efferents also participate in the modulation of neuronal circuits regulating attentional processes directed toward the identification and selection of these stimuli. In this study, N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) and D1 ...
متن کاملDelay of gratification in children.
To function effectively, individuals must voluntarily postpone immediate gratification and persist in goal-directed behavior for the sake of later outcomes. The present research program analyzed the nature of this type of future-oriented self-control and the psychological processes that underlie it. Enduring individual differences in self-control were found as early as the preschool years. Thos...
