Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a coordinate-based meta-analysis on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies that examined emotion regulation-modulated connectivity of the amygdala using psychophysiological interaction (PPI) analysis.

57 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Ramon et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a clear rule for qualifying someone as a super-recogniser, which is precise enough for standardisation but at the same time affords flexibility.

26 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Super-Recognizers (SRs) were initially reported a decade ago as a collateral while developing tests for developmental prosopagnosia as discussed by the authors, and the topic of SRs sparks interest from groups seeking to enhance scientific knowledge, public safety, or their monetary gain.

24 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine recent advances in affective neuroscience to better understand the construct of empathy and its relationship to pro-social behavior, and suggest that combining compassion interventions in conjunction with both affective and cognitive empathy offers the most optimal likelihood that individuals will engage in prosocial behavior.

23 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether EEG alpha synchronization can be modulated by flexibility in divergent thinking by comparing cortical activation patterns during the switch of category (switching) and the stay in the same category (clustering).

18 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is suggested that future studies should tailor the physical exercise to minimize the exercise-induced decrease in force production capacity and control for its confounding effects on MRCP amplitude in the presence of mental fatigue.

18 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper explored the brain mechanisms underlying semantic associative ability and its relationship with creativity based on semantic distance, and found that semantic distance was positively correlated with the gray matter volume (GMV) of the left posterior inferior temporal gyrus (LpITG), which is associated with visual word learning, semantic knowledge retrieval, and semantic memory, in addition to divergent thinking and creative traits.

17 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The authors found evidence to suggest that retrieval-related alpha/beta (7-15Hz) power decreases fluctuate as a function of encoding-related α/beta power decreases during retrieval on a trial-by-trial basis.

15 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: For instance, the authors found that cognitive empathy is associated with the default mode and frontoparietal networks, whereas regions of the salience network underlie affective empathy, and this association was driven by positive pairwise connections between the bilateral angular gyri and medial prefrontal cortex.

15 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Findings support a causal role for the prefrontal cortex and inferior parietal lobule in mind wandering, one that is polarity specific.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Initial performance modulated the effect of anodal tDCS over the Oz on the CSF, indicating that the Oz plays a crucial role in visual function.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Neurophysiological evidence that keeping multiple templates in working memory simultaneously weakens the guiding effect to the following attentional selection is provided, suggesting that the subsequent memorial template-induced N2pc is response to the level of top-down attentional guiding effect caused by vWM.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the neural correlates of action and semantic tool knowledge, by focusing on activation, stimulation, and patients' studies (left brain-damaged patients) and found that action tool knowledge relies upon a large brain network including temporal and parietal regions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Results suggest that MF gestures are processed as a whole, as imitation of these gestures relies on the stored motor programs in long-term memory, independently of the body part involved.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between changes in lateral PFC activity and pupil diameter and evaluated the effect of WM load on such relationship during the n-back task.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, three typical emotion regulation (ER) strategies (distraction, reappraisal, and suppression) with an emotional regulation paradigm using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) were examined.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Using brain event-related potentials, this study explored whether individual brain responses to practice difficulty during second language learning predict learning outcomes, and indicated alternative strategies to practice, based on the level of difficulty.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether the sense of joint agency reflects the inter-brain synchronization during a joint action and found that the degree of interbrain synchronization was significantly correlated with the participants' sense of agency, as well as the temporal accuracy of the tapping actions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) techniques to investigate whether metacognition in different cognitive domains rely on common or distinct neural substrates with combined DTI and functional MRI techniques.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This article found evidence of scene reinstatement effects in the parahippocampal and retrosplenial cortex that were equivalent to those shown by healthy controls in the presence of severe hippocampal atrophy.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This paper examined sentences where semantic violations could be attributed to noise-for example, in "The storyteller could turn any incident into an amusing antidote", where the implausible word "antidote" is orthographically and phonologically close to the intended "anecdote".

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, 81 healthy participants underwent either an acute stress task (ScanSTRESS-C; n = 40) or a control condition (n = 41) while lying in the MRI scanner.

Posted ContentDOI
TL;DR: The results show that the Benton face test was the most reliable, sensitive, and predictive assessment of prosopagnosia diagnosis and face memory performance across the groups and that face lighting change trials better predicted DP group membership and face recognition abilities than viewpoint-change trials.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the uncertainty of short melodies was manipulated by presenting melodies with different levels of complexity and familiarity, under the assumption that simpler and more familiar patterns would enhance pitch predictability.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined neural activation overlap in medial and lateral PFC after processing self- and other-informed evaluations, and found that medial PFC is more strongly involved in protecting positive self-views from both internal (self traits) and external (peer feedback) points of view.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This paper investigated how the brain supports the semantic and syntactic composition of two-word adjective-noun phrases in Dutch, using magnetoencephalography (MEG) data.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Results from 60 neurologically intact participants show that participants exposed to the virtual shift were able to quickly adapt their reaching movements to aim correctly at the target objects, and the stability of the aftereffects suggests that the induced sensory-motor adaptation does not rely on low-level processing of sensory stimuli during the training, but taps into high-level representations of space.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Data provide novel insight into the relationship between thirst and mental fatigue, and suggest that drinking to the dictates of thirst may be a pertinent strategy to sustain prolonged cognitive performance.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Results showed a slower adaptation to prisms when rTMS was delivered before PA, regardless of target site (right PPC or V1), and suggest a functional and neural dissociation between realignment and recalibration.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Sustained activity patterns during AWM maintenance are demonstrated, with prominent low-frequency increases in medial temporal lobe regions.
