Journal ArticleDOI

Acute dietary tryptophan depletion impairs maintenance of "affective set" and delayed visual recognition in healthy volunteers.

TL;DR: It is suggested that this inability to "maintain set" in the non-shift condition may be due to a disruption of semantic retrieval processes concerned with affect, and the novel finding of impairment on a delayed visual pattern recognition task confirms and extends previous studies where selective effects on memory and learning have been found following acute tryptophan depletion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saccadic latency distributions in Parkinson’s disease and the effects of l -dopa

TL;DR: A novel effect of dopamine on saccadic latency, implying that it influences the neural decision process itself, is demonstrated, and the effects of l-dopa on neural decision making are discussed, where it is postulated to increase the criterion level of evidence required before the decision to move is made.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationship between antisaccades, smooth pursuit, and executive dysfunction in first-episode schizophrenia.

TL;DR: It is suggested that in schizophrenia working memory and antisaccade performance reflect the same abnormal prefrontal substrates and that smooth pursuit is mediated by a separate neural abnormality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation rearing impairs the reinforcing efficacy of intravenous cocaine or intra-accumbens d-amphetamine: impaired response to intra-accumbens D1 and D2/D3 dopamine receptor antagonists.

TL;DR: Male Lister hooded rats were raised from weaning either alone (isolation reared) or in groups of five (socially reared controls) and the functioning of cortico-limbicstriatal systems, with particular reference to the mesoaccumbens dopamine projection was discussed.
