Cortisol Effects on Averaged Evoked Potential, Alpha-Rhythm, Time Estimation, and Two-Flash Fusion Threshold
Eighteen normal male subjects, each serving as his own control, were tested with acute cortisol and placebo intravenous infusions on separate days. Previous studies have shown that enhancement of the amplitude of the averaged-evoked-potential by random flashes reflects selective attention. Cortisol administration was accompanied by a significant decrease in this enhancement. It is therefore hypothesized that cortisol may be acting to decrease the…
Influence of Triiodothyronine on Selective Attention in Man as Measured by the Visual Averaged Evoked Potential
Man is continually bombarded by stimuli. Some contain important information while others do not. By processing some stimuli and filtering out others, man selectively attends to his environment. It is possible to obtain an objective measure of attention directed toward a specific stimulus by measuring the averaged evoked potential (AEP) produced by that stimulus. The amplitude of the AEP is greater when the subject attends to a stimulus than when …
MMPI Scales vs Interviewer Ratings of Paranoia
Three sub-scales of the MMPI ( Sc, Pa, and Stein's recently devised Suspicion scale) had low positive correlations with two interview-derived indices of paranoia in a sample of 44 patients who had been classified by the staffs of their wards as either clearly paranoid or clearly non-paranoid
