Enhancing Error Awareness Under Cognitive Load: How Neurostimulation Improves Self-Monitoring via Working Memory
Transcranial direct current stimulation enhances error awareness under cognitive load by restoring working memory capacity, with implications for high-stakes human-computer interaction.
INFLUENCE OF RELIGIOSITY ON WELL-BEING AMONG LITERATE AND ILLITERATE PERSONS
Study examining how religiosity affects well-being in literate versus illiterate populations, finding stronger associations in those with literacy and distinct dimensional patterns.
Signals of Success and Struggle: Early Prediction and Physiological Signatures of Human Performance across Task Complexity
Early eye movement and heart rate signals predict user performance in complex tasks. High performers show targeted gaze, adjusted visual sampling, and stable cardiac activation.
Agency-Enhanced Visual Search in VR: Robust to Distraction, Delay, and Perspective Shifts
Virtual reality study shows that the sense of control over objects enhances subsequent visual search, remaining effective despite distractions, delays, and perspective changes.
Can’t See Nature for the Trees: A Literature Review about Virtual Nature for Well-Being
Systematic review of 124 studies on virtual nature and well-being reveals positive effects but identifies limitations in intervention design and theoretical scope.
A Functional Theory of Qualia
Jennings proposes qualia emerges from recursive self-monitoring architecture creating electrochemical differentials in biological tissue, with implications for AI consciousness assessment.
Neurodegeneration, Oxidative Stress, NGF/TrkA/P75NTR, and PGE2 Dysregulation Induced by PFOS Single and Repeated Treatment: Partial Protection by T3 and Other Therapeutic Approaches
PFOS induces neurodegeneration in basal forebrain cholinergic neurons through oxidative stress, PGE2 dysregulation, and NGF pathway disruption; T3 treatment offers partial neuroprotection.
Psychosocial determinants of child cognitive development in sub-Saharan early childhood development centres: a systematic review protocol
Protocol for systematic review of psychosocial determinants of child cognitive development in sub-Saharan African Early Childhood Development centres, examining research from 2014-2024.
Cortico-basal ganglia dynamics of global and selective response inhibition in humans
Intracranial and EEG recordings in humans reveal that selective response inhibition is mediated by rapid, context-dependent fronto-subthalamic β-burst engagement with prolonged subthalamic.
