Task instructions modulate neural responses to fearful facial expressions.
BACKGROUND The amygdala, hippocampus, ventral, and dorsal prefrontal cortices have been demonstrated to be involved in the response to fearful facial expressions. Little is known, however, about the effect of task instructions upon the intensity of responses within these regions to fear-inducing stimuli. METHODS Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we examined neural responses to alte...
متن کاملThe number decision task: Investigation of the representation of multi-digit numbers.
The ability to process multi-digit numbers is an essential skill which we investigated using a number decision task. Subjects were asked to decide whether a target number (e.g., 649) is too small or too large to be the mean between two delimiter numbers that constituted the interval (e.g., 567 and 715). Three-digit numbers were presented vertically with (1) growing interval sizes (i.e., distanc...
متن کاملEfficient squaring circuit using canonical signed-digit number representation
Squaring and exponentiation of a number are fundamental arithmetic and widely used in the real-time applications such as image processing, digital filtering and cryptography. In this paper, we propose a squaring algorithm of an integer with canonical signed-digit (CSD) number representation. For an n-digit CSD number, our method generates n/4 CSD numbers of 2n-digit length as partial products. ...
متن کاملMulti-digit number processing beyond the two-digit number range: a combination of sequential and parallel processes.
Investigations of multi-digit number processing typically focus on two-digit numbers. Here, we aim to investigate the generality of results from two-digit numbers for four- and six-digit numbers. Previous studies on two-digit numbers mostly suggested a parallel processing of tens and units. In contrast, the few studies examining the processing of larger numbers suggest sequential processing of ...
متن کاملTask instructions modulate the attentional mode affecting the auditory MMN and the semantic N400
Event-related potentials (ERPs) have been proven to be a useful tool to complement clinical assessment and to detect residual cognitive functions in patients with disorders of consciousness. These ERPs are often recorded using passive or unspecific instructions. Patient data obtained this way are then compared to data from healthy participants, which are usually recorded using active instructio...
