Journal ArticleDOI

Emotional bias and inhibitory control processes in mania and depression.

TL;DR: Observed impairments on tests of memory and planning suggest a global pathology for mania consistent with previous profiles for this disorder and similar to established profiles for depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of the amygdala in stimulus-reward associations: interaction with the ventral striatum.

TL;DR: A role for the amygdala is indicated in mediating the effects of stimulus-reward associations on behaviour, via an action on dopamine-dependent mechanisms of the ventral striatum, following intra-accumbens amphetamine infusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative study of visuospatial memory and learning in alzheimer-type dementia and parkinson's disease

TL;DR: The utility of the comparison between DAT and PD in characterizing the nature of the cognitive deficits in these conditions and their relation to those findings from animal neuropsychology which use comparable paradigms are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural systems engaged by planning: a PET study of the Tower of London task

TL;DR: The functional anatomy of planning was investigated using the Tower of London task and enhanced neural activity in both this rostral prefrontal area and the visuospatial working memory system was associated with increased task difficulty.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extra-dimensional Versus Intra-Dimensional Set Shifting Performance Following Frontal Lobe Excisions, Temporal Lobe Excisions or Amygdalo-Hippocampectomy in Man

TL;DR: Both the temporal lobe patients and the amygdalo-hippocampectomy patients were unimpaired in their ability to perform either shift, although both groups had significantly prolonged selection latencies at the extra-dimensional shift stage of the task.
