Journal ArticleDOI

Cortical lateralization of function in rats in a visual reaction time task

TL;DR: In the rat, there is a functional lateralization that is similar to that seen in humans, and it is shown that they used one eye to control responses to both visual fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Introduction. The neurobiology of drug addiction: new vistas

TL;DR: This Royal Society Discussion Meeting, held on 25–26 February 2008, was intended to mark the enormous scientific progress made in this field in the last decade or so.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paradoxical enhancement of choice reaction time performance in patients with major depression.

TL;DR: The results do indicate that depressed patients are not invariably impaired in motivational paradigms and that their RT performance in certain situations can be superior to that of controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fronto-striatal circuits for cognitive flexibility in far from onset Huntington's disease: evidence from the Young Adult Study.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the CANTAB IED task detects a mild early impairment in cognitive flexibility in a pre-HD group far from onset and postulate that this incipient impairment of cognitive flexibility may be associated with intrinsically abnormal functional connectivity of fronto-striatal circuitry in pre- HD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psychological mechanisms and functions of 5-HT and SSRIs in potential therapeutic change: Lessons from the serotonergic modulation of action selection, learning, affect, and social cognition.

TL;DR: Converging translational evidence indicates a role for serotonin in modulating context-dependent parameters of action selection, affect, and social cognition; and concurrently supporting learning mechanisms, which promote adaptability and behavioural flexibility.
