Three components of cognitive inhibition were compared in patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls. Nineteen patients with schizophrenia were compared to 30 healthy controls, matched for age, sex, and educational level. Cognitive inhibition was examined by (i) access to relevant information (Reading with distraction task), (ii) suppression of no longer relevant information (Trail Making...

Anorexia Nervosa (AN) and Bulimia Nervosa (BN) are complex Eating Disorders (EDs). Even if are considered two different diagnostic categories, they share clinical relevant characteristics. The evaluation of neurocognitive functions, using standardized neuropsychological assessment, could be a interesting approach to better understand differences and similarities between diagnostic categories an...

in the present study the distribution of rubella hemagglutination inhibition (hi) antibody titer in the sera of 1486 women of 18 to 25 years old residing in tehran were examined. sera were pretreated with acid washed kaolin and pigeon red blood cell. titers below 1:10 and in some studies below 1:20 are considered nonimmune to rubella. our results show that 10, 29% of studied population had hi a...

Abstract The aim of the present study was to test environmental and cognitive variables as possible cross-domain predictors early literacy numeracy skills. One hundred forty-eight preschool children (mean age = 64.36 months ± 3.33) were enrolled in study. battery included a home questionnaire, measures phonological visuo-spatial working memory, tasks tapping response inhibition, (vocabulary, aw...

Everyone knows what inhibition is-and that creates a very real problem. The idea is so ingrained that it is difficult to discuss it as a scientific concept without contamination from existing world knowledge. Yet discussing it is exactly what cognitive scientists have been attempting to do with renewed vigor in the recent past, owing to a t least three factors: the growth of cognitive neuroscie...

Objective: Some theories state that a deficiency in cognitive control makes people more vulnerable to the occurrence of repetitive negative thoughts. The present study was done to investigate the association between cognitive control based on switching and inhibition and repetitive thinking of rumination and worry and major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. Methods: Thirty ...

ackground: Williams syndrome (WS) has provided researchers with an exciting opportunity to understand the complex interplay among enes, neurobiological and cognitive functions. However, despite a well-characterized cognitive and behavioral phenotype, little attention as been paid to the marked deficits in social and behavioral inhibition. Here we explore the neural systems that mediate response...
