Associations of Perceived Stress and Psychological Resilience With Cognition and a Modifiable Dementia Risk Score in Middle-Aged Adults
Higher perceived stress and lower resilience were associated with poorer cognition and a greater burden of modifiable dementia risk factors. Intervention studies are required to determine if lowering stress and building resilience can mitigate cognitive deficits and reduce dementia risk
Discourse Compression of Elderly Adults in a Dyadic Context
A young conversational partner offers a model of consistently compressed and coherent discourse for their older interlocutor. Producing discourse in tandem with a younger adult may thus support older adults' use of social platforms (such as SMS or Facebook) that require a highly compressed message
Relationship Between Control Beliefs, Strategy Use, and Memory Performance in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment and Healthy Aging
Despite the weak relationship between control beliefs and strategy use, and control beliefs and memory performance for the aMCI group, the strong relationship between strategy use and memory performance provides impetus for further research into factors that can be used as a means of enhancing strategy use in interventions for aMCI
A note on normative data for a test sensitive to concussion in Australian rules footballers
The medical diagnosis of concussion and assessment of recovery in athletes has traditionally been subjectively based on clinical symptoms such as headache, nausea, and dizziness. Recently, there has been increasing interest in the use of neuropsychological tests as objective measures of recovery from concussion. In particular, performance on tests of speed of information processing, such as the Digit-Symbol subtest (DS) from the Wechsler Adult In…
Neuropsychology in the Clinic
This comment attempts to show that research methodology is not a complete model for the clinical domain. The writings of Shapiro serve as a good object lesson. Because Shapiro is often identified with the development of single case methodology, It is sometimes assumed that his clinical approach is no more or less than an application of this methodology. On the face of it, therefore, Shapiro's writings seem to represent a convenient rationale for …
On Lateral Asymmetry in Cradling Behaviour and Breast Sensitivity
The Role of Lexical Phonology in Reading
In this study we examined phonological encoding during reading by investigating whether different types of verbal and nonverbal material and an articulatory suppression task interfered with reading comprehension and with a nonword rhyme judgment task. Neither the presence of an auditory interference task nor the articulatory suppression task had any effect on accuracy of comprehension or on judging if nonwords rhymed. It took longer to read prose…
The Effects of Electric Shock Stress on Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep in Hooded Rats
The effects of various parameters of electric footshock on the sleep stage distribution of hooded rats were investigated in three experiments. Shock severity, rather than predictability or controllability, affected sleep stage distribution. Continued suppression of REM sleep occurred with the administration of 150, but not with the administration of 15 shocks per day. The predictability of shock onset and the controllability of shock offset, had …
Cradling and Transport of Infants by South African Mothers
A Photographic Survey of Lateral Cradling Preferences in Black and White Women
The lateral cradling biases of Black and White women were examined by surveying photographs of women holding infants. The photographs were taken from a number of Black- and White-orientated popular periodicals. A systematic leftward bias in cradling was found in both Black and White women, suggesting that left-sided cradling is a universal maternal behaviour. The results were discussed in terms of their significance for a biogenetic model of the …
