Journal ArticleDOI
Executive function and fluid intelligence after frontal lobe lesions.
María Roca,Alice Parr,Russell Thompson,Alexandra Woolgar,Teresa Torralva,Nagui M. Antoun,Facundo Manes,John S. Duncan +7 more
TL;DR: Understanding of frontal lobe deficits may be clarified by separating reduced fluid intelligence, important in most or all tasks, from other more specific impairments and their associated regions of damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
A neuropsychological battery to detect specific executive and social cognitive impairments in early frontotemporal dementia
TL;DR: The results suggest that the Executive and Social Cognition Battery used in this study is more sensitive in detecting executive and social cognitive impairment deficits in early behavioural variant of frontotemporal dementia than the classical cognitive measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
INECO Frontal Screening (IFS): a brief, sensitive, and specific tool to assess executive functions in dementia
TL;DR: The IFS is a brief, sensitive, and specific tool for the detection of executive dysfunction associated with neurodegenerative diseases and may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of FTD and AD.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between affective decision-making and theory of mind in the frontal variant of fronto-temporal dementia
Teresa Torralva,Christopher M. Kipps,John R. Hodges,John R. Hodges,Luke Clark,Tristan A. Bekinschtein,María Roca,María de Luján Calcagno,Facundo Manes +8 more
TL;DR: While performance measures from the two ToM tasks were significantly correlated, they were not associated with IGT performance, which suggests that whilst similar prefrontal circuitry is implicated in ToM and DM tasks, these cognitive domains may be independent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decision-making cognition in neurodegenerative diseases
TL;DR: This Review examines the neuroanatomical substrates of decision-making in relation to the neuropathological changes that occur in Alzheimer disease, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson disease and Huntington disease, and suggests a number of recommendations that future studies could adopt to aid the understanding of decisions-making cognition.
