Reduced Theta Connectivity during Set-Shifting in Children with Autism
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a characterized by deficits in social cognition and executive function. An area of particular difficulty for children with ASD is cognitive flexibility, such as the ability to shift between attentional or response sets. The biological basis of such deficits remains poorly understood, although atypical development of structural and functional brain connectivity ...
متن کاملReduced task-related functional connectivity during a set-shifting task in unmedicated Parkinson’s disease patients
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) often suffer from cognitive impairments, including set-shifting deficits, in addition to the characteristic motor symptoms. It is hypothesized that the striatal dopamine depletion leads to a sub-optimal functional connectivity between task-related brain areas and consequently results in impaired task-performance. In this study, we aimed to examine this hyp...
متن کاملReduced beta band connectivity during number estimation in autism
Recent evidence suggests that disruption of integrative processes in sensation and perception may play a critical role in cognitive and behavioural atypicalities characteristic of ASD. In line with this, ASD is associated with altered structural and functional brain connectivity and atypical patterns of inter-regional communication which have been proposed to contribute to cognitive difficultie...
متن کاملReduced Hippocampal Functional Connectivity During Episodic Memory Retrieval in Autism
Increasing recent research has sought to understand the recollection impairments experienced by individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Here, we tested whether these memory deficits reflect a reduction in the probability of retrieval success or in the precision of memory representations. We also used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to study the neural mechanisms underlying...
متن کاملReduced functional connectivity in visual evoked potentials in children with autism spectrum disorder.
OBJECTIVE An analysis of EEG synchrony between homologous early visual areas tested the hypothesis that interhemispheric functional connectivity during visual stimulation is reduced in children with autism compared to controls. METHODS EEG power and coherence within and between two homologous regions of the occipital cortex were measured during long latency flash visual evoked potentials. Mea...
