Trauma was linked to Rorschach differences and eye-tracking avoidance
Multi-method investigation using performance-based and eye-tracking measures reveals how trauma manifests in attention patterns and behavioral response tendencies.
mPFC pathways show distinct affective state patterns
—
in NeuroscienceCalcium imaging reveals distinct activity patterns in mPFC pathways to amygdala versus nucleus accumbens during anxiety, exploration, and social behaviors in mice.
Autistic adults showed more forward waves during visual stimulation
—
in NeuroscienceEEG study reveals autistic adults show enhanced forward traveling waves during visual entrainment, suggesting reduced top-down predictions and increased bottom-up sensory processing compared to.
Effort boosts dopamine release through acetylcholine
—
in NeuroscienceEffort amplifies dopamine reward responses through acetylcholine modulation of dopamine axons in the nucleus accumbens, explaining how organisms maintain reward-seeking under resource constraints.
Parieto-frontal communication supports accurate quantity judgments in primates
—
in NeuroscienceStudy reveals that coordinated communication between parietal and frontal brain regions enables accurate numerical judgments in macaques, with disrupted interaction causing errors.
Maximal effort linked to greater preference for correct performance
Active inference model reveals voluntary mental effort is governed by motivation for accuracy rather than inhibition of habitual responses in Stroop task performance.
Problematic short-form video users showed more impulsive inhibitory control
—
in PsychologyStudy reveals inhibitory control deficits in short-form video users stem from impulsive decision-making and reduced sensitivity to contextual changes, with implications for behavioral addiction.
