Selective impairment of reasoning about social exchange in a patient with bilateral limbic system damage.
Social exchange is a pervasive feature of human social life. Models in evolutionary biology predict that for social exchange to evolve in a species, individuals must be able to detect cheaters (nonreciprocators). Previous research suggests that humans have a cognitive mechanism specialized for detecting cheaters. Here we provide neurological evidence indicating that social exchange reasoning ca...
متن کاملPredictors of Olfactory Impairment among Northern Iranian Population
Introduction: The performance in most smell identification tests is subjected to cultural variations. This study aimed to evaluate age, gender, and smoking-related effects on the test performance in the North of Iran. Materials and Methods: The olfactory function of 1470 eligible subjects was assessed in this study. Moreover, this study evaluated the influence of age, ...
متن کاملBidirectional processing in the olfactory-limbic axis during olfactory behavior.
Field potentials were recorded simultaneously from the olfactory bulb (OB), prepyriform cortex (PPC), entorhinal cortex (EC), and dentate gyrus (DG) of rats trained to respond to appetitively reinforced odors. Preafferent anticipatory events in the beta band (12-35 Hz) suggest transmission from EC to OB before the odorant stimulus. Gamma band (35-120 Hz) power in olfactory regions is significan...
متن کاملImpairment of olfactory recognition after closed head injury.
To investigate the effects of closed head injury (CHI) on olfactory identification, we administered a test of olfactory naming and forced choice recognition to 52 CHI patients who had no evidence of anosmia. The Olfactory Identification Test consisted of 'scratch and sniff' labels of familiar nonirritant odorants. In comparison with a normal control group (n = 19) of similar age, olfactory nami...
متن کاملOlfactory impairment in adults.
Olfactory function may be important for environmental and nutritional safety and enjoyment. Population-based epidemiological studies of olfaction are needed to understand the magnitude of the health burden, identify modifiable risk factors, and develop and test prevention and treatment strategies for olfactory impairment. However, measuring olfaction in large studies is challenging, requiring r...
