  • The Impact of Transcranial Photobiomodulation on the Bilateral Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Enhancing Convergent Thinking and Stroop Test

    Open AccessJavier Peña, Makii Muthalib et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Creative Behavior2026

    Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) has been employed for cognitive enhancement in healthy individuals. This study aimed to investigate the effects of tPBM applied bilaterally over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on convergent thinking (CT), divergent thinking (DT), and the Stroop test. Additionally, we explored whether Stroop performance mediates the effect of tPBM on creativity. In this double‐blind, between‐subjects study, 56 hea…

  • Effects of Combined tDCS-tRNS Over the Left Prefrontal Cortex on Convergent Thinking After 24 Hours

    Javier Peña, Roger E Beaty et al.ARTICLECreativity Research Journal2025

    This study aimed to investigate whether combined transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) with the cathode over the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) produce effects on creativity 1-day after being stimulated. In a double-blind, between-subjects design, 54 healthy participants were randomly assigned to either tDCS-tRNS or sham. The tDCS-tR…

  • Enhancement of Divergent Creative Thinking After Transcranial Near-Infrared Photobiomodulation Over the Default Mode Network

    Open AccessJavier Peña, Makii Muthalib et al.ARTICLECreativity Research Journal2024

    Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) has been used for cognitive enhancement in healthy people. However, its effect on creativity has not been investigated. The default mode network (DMN) is associated with divergent thinking (DT; but not convergent thinking, CT), and also with anxiety, which in turn has been negatively related to creativity. We aimed to use tPBM over the DMN to assess the effect on DT compared to sham. Additionally, we assesse…

  • Electrophysiological Evidence for a Whorfian Double Dissociation of Categorical Perception Across Two Languages

    Open AccessAina Casaponsa, M Acebo García‐guerrero et al.ARTICLELanguage Learning2024Cited by: 2References: 42

    Taza in Spanish refers to cups and mugs in English, whereas glass refers to different glass types in Spanish: copa and vaso. It is still unclear whether such categorical distinctions induce early perceptual differences in speakers of different languages. In this study, for the first time, we report symmetrical effects of terminology on preattentive indices of categorical perception across languages. Native speakers of English or Spanish saw array…

  • Resocializando o conteniendo el riesgo de reincidencia? Un recorrido por las prácticas de gestión penitenciaria en Argentina

    Open AccessNatalia Soledad Ojeda, Natalia OjedaARTICLERevista del Museo de Antropología2024References: 19

    Este artículo se propone describir y analizar, desde una perspectiva cualitativa, el camino recorrido en la implementación de proyectos de gestión penitenciaria en el sistema federal argentino. De este modo, se relevan prácticas, sentidos y elementos centrales de la construcción y organización institucional de esta agencia estatal que ha mostrado a lo largo de su historia la adhesión a modelos centrados en el humanismo, el correccionalismo y el c…

  • Enhancing Creativity With Combined Transcranial Direct Current and Random Noise Stimulation of the Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex and Inferior Frontal Gyrus

    Open AccessJavier Peña, Makii Muthalib et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Creative Behavior2023

    Creativity is a fundamental human accomplishment from scientific advances to composing music. The left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) are important metacontrol hubs in flexibility and persistence brain states, respectively. Those hubs are related to divergent thinking, insight problem‐solving, and convergent thinking. In this double‐blind, between‐subjects study, 81 healthy participants were randomly assig…

  • Predictors of health-related quality of life in Parkinson’s disease

    Open AccessItsasne Sanchez-Luengos, Olaia Lucas‐Jiménez et al.ARTICLEQuality of Life Research2022

    These findings showed the importance of identifying and controlling overlapping items of HRQoL and clinical measures to perform an accurate interpretation. HRQoL dimensions showed different predictors before and after controlling the overlap. Based on these results fatigue, anxiety, motor symptoms, and neurocognition, but not depression are the main predictors of HRQoL in PD patients

  • The Effect of Changing the Balance Between Right and Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex on Different Creativity Tasks

    Open AccessJavier Peña, Agurne Sampedro et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Creative Behavior2021

    Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) increases performance in some perceptual tasks. However, little is known about its effect on creativity. Although dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has been postulated as an important cortical area related to creativity, the relative role of left and right DLPFC is still unclear. We aimed to compare the effect of anodal left/cathodal right (L + R−) and cathodal left/anodal right (L − R+) tRNS over…
