Allostatic interoception in frontotemporal dementia: A scoping review protocol

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) encompasses a spectrum of disorders characterized by distinct behavioral, cognitive, and motor symptoms. Deficits in interoception and allostasis have garnered attention, considering the involvement of the allostatic-interoceptive network in FTD, their contribution to canonical social cognitive and affective deficits, and the identification of whole-body biomarkers related to auton...

Autistic traits and event-related potentials in the general population: A scopi...

Differences in short and long-latency Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) can help us infer abnormalities in brain processing, considering early and later stages of stimuli processing across tasks and conditions. In autism research, the adult population remains largely understudied compared to samples at early stages of development. In this context, this scoping review briefly summarises what has been described in ...

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the visual mismatch negativity in schizo...

Mismatch negativity (MMN) is an event-related potential component automatically elicited by events that violate predictions based on prior events. To elicit this component, researchers use stimulus repetition to induce predictions, and the MMN is obtained by subtracting the brain response to rare or unpredicted stimuli from that of frequent stimuli. Under the Predictive Processing framework, one increasingly po...

Uncertainty deconstructed: conceptual analysis and state-of-the-art review of t...

Risk and uncertainty are central concepts of decision neuroscience. However, a comprehensive review of the literature shows that most studies define risk and uncertainty in an unclear fashion or use both terms interchangeably, which hinders the integration of the existing findings. We suggest uncertainty as an umbrella term that comprises scenarios characterized by outcome variance where relevant information ab...

The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS): Translation and adaptation to Europ...

Intolerance of uncertainty is defined as the individual’s excessive propensity to find unacceptable the probability of a negative event occurring (Dugas et al., 2001b; Buhr & Dugas, 2002). This propensity is brought up bya set of negative beliefs about uncertainty and its consequences (e.g., uncertainty is unacceptable and should be avoided, and/or it leads to the inability to act;Buhr & Dugas, 2002; Freeston e...

A Domain-specific Risk-attitude Scale (DRaS): Translation and adaptation to Eur...

Risk attitude, as conceptualized in the classic economic approach, reflects the individual’s sensitivity to disparities in outcomes (i.e., payoffs) variance (Yechiam & Ert, 2011). Brachinger and Weber (1997) further propose that risk attitude depends on the tendency to prefer/avoid risk over certainty. Thus, the degree of risk acceptance underlies risk attitudes. Likewise, Risk-Return models (Weber & Milliman, ...

Neuropsychological and affective assessment of teachers over 50 years old befor...

The aging of the population raises several social and health related issues and is particularly high in Europe, where policies promoting Active Aging are being pursued. In Education, the aging of the teaching workforce poses significant challenges to the profession. The REKINDLE+50 project developed a training program on Information and Communications Technology (ICT) use for teachers with the parallel intent o...

Abnormal habituation of the auditory event-related potential P2 component in pa...

Auditory event-related potentials (ERP) may serve as diagnostic tools for schizophrenia and inform on the susceptibility for this condition.Particularly, the examination of N1 and P2 components of the auditory ERP may shed light on the impairments of information processing streams in schizophrenia. However, the habituation properties (i.e., decreasing amplitude with the repeated presentation of an auditory stim...

Vagal modulation of 1-month-old infants to auditory stimuli is associated with ...

New version of the emotion socialization scale with the positive emotion of ove...

There are few studies on parental socialization of positive emotions in adolescents and few instruments that measure these parental reactions. Therefore, we developed a new version of the Emotion Socialization Scale (ESS) for the positive emotion of overjoy. We further provided some evidence of validity and reliability of the Portuguese ESS, featuring overjoy, fear, anger, and sadness. Adolescents (N = 418) ans...
