Journal ArticleDOI

Executive function in first-episode schizophrenia

TL;DR: In contradistinction to previous studies, schizophrenic patients do have profound executive impairments at the beginning of the illness, however, these concern planning and strategy use rather than attentional set shifting, which is generally unimpaired.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dopaminergic basis for deficits in working memory but not attentional set-shifting in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Working memory deficits in PD are both psychologically specific and related to dopamine depletion, and it is anticipated that greater understanding of these mechanisms will lead to future therapeutic improvements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk taking during decision-making in normal volunteers changes with age.

TL;DR: Support is provided for the concept that impulsivity can be fractionated into 2 or more components, as demonstrated by performance on a computer based gambling task.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of excitotoxic lesions of the basolateral amygdala, ventral subiculum and medial prefrontal cortex on responding with conditioned reinforcement and locomotor activity potentiated by intra-accumbens infusions of D-amphetamine

TL;DR: The results suggest a rather selective effect of amygdala-ventral striatal interactions on processes subserving conditioned reinforcement and a more fundamental influence of ventral subiculum- ventral Striatal interactions in mediating the psychomotor stimulant effects of D-amphetamine.
Journal ArticleDOI

The contributions of lesion laterality and lesion volume to decision-making impairment following frontal lobe damage

TL;DR: The results indicate a laterality effect on the Iowa Gambling Task, and the contribution of prefrontal regions outside the ventromedial region to task performance.
