Background Slow-paced breathing training (6 breaths per minute [BPM]) improves physiological and psychological well-being by inducing relaxation characterized increased heart rate variability (HRV). However, classic has a limited target group, retention rates are very low. Although gameful approach may help overcome these challenges, it is crucial to enable in scalable context (eg, smartphone o...

While most first language acquisition research to date has focused on the development of children's linguistic competence, a number of research teams have also investigated the mechanisms children employ to process sentence-level and word-level information in real time, by applying experimental techniques familiar from the adult processing literature to children. This chapter presents an overvi...

the aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of physical practices on the reduction of slow-pace children's aggression. for this purpose, 20 guidance school students with slow pace were selected through simple random sampling. they were divided into experiment (10 persons) and control (10 persons) groups. rosenzweig frustration scale was administered to both groups as the prete...

OBJECTIVE Our goal was to study rate adaptation of atrial action potentials in non-steady and steady states to further our understanding of mechanisms determining inducibility and stability of atrial fibrillation. METHODS We used standard microelectrode techniques to examine the characteristics of steady-state action potentials paced at regular cycle lengths (CL) and of nonsteady-state action...

F1 Central Neural Substrates of Cardiorespiratory Control During Slow Breathing and Hypoxic Challenge Alessia Nicotra, MD; Hugo Critchley, MD; Patrizia Chiesa, MD; Yoko Nagai, MD; Marcus Gray, MD; Ludovico Minati, MD; Luciano Bernardi, MD Controlled slow breathing (at 6/min) can have beneficial effects on cardiovascular function, including responses to hypoxia. We tested neural substrates of ca...

depression disorders are associated with serious dysfunction and depressive symptoms. cognitive slowing is a clear symptom observed in all depressed people. pvsat is a measure of cognitive function that specifically assesses visual information processing speed and flexibility, as well as calculation ability. the aim of the present study was to determine whether the paced visual serial addition ...
