Journal ArticleDOI

Reversal learning in Parkinson's disease depends on medication status and outcome valence.

TL;DR: It is shown that dopaminergic medication in PD impairs reversal shifting depending on the motivational valence of unexpected outcomes, and patients ON medication performed as well as patients OFF medication and controls when the reversal was signaled by unexpected reward.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stability and Change in Executive Function Abilities from Late Adolescence to Early Adulthood: A Longitudinal Twin Study.

TL;DR: The results suggest that individual differences in EFs are quite heritable and stable by late adolescence, yet are still sensitive to environmental influences.
Journal ArticleDOI

When Mental Inflexibility Facilitates Executive Control Beneficial Side Effects of Ruminative Tendencies on Goal Maintenance

TL;DR: The results suggest that depressive rumination reflects a trait associated with more stability (goal maintenance) than flexibility (goal shifting), and indicates that rumination and dysphoria can have opposing effects on executive control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a comprehensive understanding of executive cognitive function in implicit racial bias.

TL;DR: The main findings were that measures of implicit bias were only weakly intercorrelated, and EF and estimates of automatic processes both predicted implicit bias and also interacted, such that the relation between automatic processes and bias expression was reduced at higher levels of EF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction Between Family History of Alcoholism and Locus of Control in the Opioid Regulation of Impulsive Responding Under the Influence of Alcohol

TL;DR: The results reinforce the predictive relationship between Locus of Control and NTX's effect on decision making in those with a family history of alcoholism, suggesting a possible biological basis to this relationship.
