There is emerging evidence that the encoding of visual information and the maintenance of this information in a temporarily accessible state in working memory rely on the same neural mechanisms. A consequence of this overlap is that atypical forms of perception should influence working memory. We examined this by investigating whether having grapheme-color synesthesia, a condition characterized...

Explicit memory refers to the conscious retrieval of past information or experiences, whereas implicit memory refers to an unintentional or nonconscious form of retrieval. Much of the literature in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience has focused on differences between explicit and implicit memory, and the traditional view is that they rely on distinct brain systems. However, the pot...

In 1930 Frey described an unusual involuntary movement of the muscles of the chin, inherited as a dominant characteristic through five generations. Ganner (1938) described a similar family, and in discussion Westphal (1938) mentioned a family in whom this trait could be followed through six generations. Grossman (1957) and Wadlington (1958) reported smaller affected families, and Ford (1960) me...

OBJECTIVE Treatment of schizophrenia is frequently complicated by patients' ambivalence and lack of insight into the disease, occasionally warranting involuntary treatment. This study aims to describe involuntary treatment in Danish schizophrenia patients. METHOD Patients diagnosed with a lifetime ICD-10 F20 schizophrenia diagnosis and alive in the period 2004-2010 were identified in the Dani...

To the average person (perhaps even the average economist), unemployment is often equated to a state of involuntary idleness. Such a view, however, appears inconsistent with the way in which unemployment is actually defined and measured. According to International Labor Organization conventions (which are followed by most national labor force surveys), unemployment constitutes those (working-ag...

In memory retrieval, search can be guided by mental sets towards different subsets of the available evidence. Such retrieval orientations have been suggested to leave an imprint on event-related potentials (ERPs). The present study aimed at characterizing orientations towards perceptual and conceptual evidence in a recognition task, where pictures and words were studied. In the recognition test...

BACKGROUND The involuntary admission regulated under the Mental Health Act has become an increasingly important issue in the developed countries in recent years. Most studies about the distribution and associated factors of involuntary admission were carried out in the western countries; however, the results may vary in different areas with different legal and socio-cultural backgrounds. AIMS...

Involuntary movement is an uncommon manifestation of moyamoya disease. We describe a 12-year-old boy who suffered from involuntary movement after the first surgery but it improved dramatically after the second surgery. Initially, the patient underwent an encephalo-duro-arterio-myosynangiosis on the right side and encephalo-duro-periostealsynangiosis on the bifrontal side, which ameliorated his ...
