Associations Linking ADHD Traits and Psychopatological Symptoms
Tailoring educational interventions targeting parental vaccine hesitancy
Introduction: Childhood vaccines, such as those to prevent tetanus (DTaP/Tdap), human papillomavirus (HPV) or hepatitis B (Hep B), have proven to be an effective strategy in preventing long-term diseases arising from injuries, such as puncture wounds, cuts or burns (e.g., DTaP/Tdap vaccine) or risky sexual behavior in adolescence (e.g., HPV or Hep B vaccines). However, despite national child immunization policies, parental vaccine hesitancy, defi…
Interoception, health anxiety, and emotion regulation. psychometric properties of the original and reduced Italian versions of the multidimensional assessment of interoceptive awareness 2 (Maia-2)
A systematic review on the psychological factors behind vaccine hesitancy in the Covid-19 era
The relationship between cognitive reserve and cognition in healthy adults
The concept of Cognitive Reserve (CR) refers to the individual differences allowing some people to cope better with brain pathology. The aim of the present review was to explore the relationship between CR and cognition in adulthood. This association has been addressed in several neuro(psycho)logical disorders and in healthy elderly people. However, few studies explored this issue in adulthood (age range 18–65), when individuals might take advant…
Empathy through the Pandemic
Growing evidence suggests that empathy is a relevant psychological trait to face the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, but at the present very little is known on whether this multi-dimensional construct has been affected by the pandemic outbreak differently in its separate components. Here, we aimed at filling this gap by capitalizing on the opportunity of having collected data from different self-report measures and cognitive tasks as…
“Mind the thumb”
People can decide whether the image of a hand represents a left or a right one. The laterality judgment mainly implies mentally imaging own hand movement (motor simulation) if the stimulus represents a palm, or analysing visual cues, as hand asymmetry, if the stimulus reproduces a dorsum. Here, by capitalizing on evidence underscoring the key role of thumb-palm complex in motor dexterity of human hand, we hypothesise that activation of motor or v…
Health Comes First”
The processing of health-related stimuli can be biased by health anxiety and anxiety sensitivity but, at the moment, it is far from clear whether health-related stimuli can affect motor readiness or the ability to inhibit action. In this preliminary study, we assessed whether different levels of health anxiety and anxiety sensitivity affect disposition to action in response to positive and negative health-related stimuli in non-clinical individua…
Danger is in the eyes of the beholder
Sex differences in implicit motor imagery
Implicit Motor Imagery and the Lateral Occipitotemporal Cortex
Background: Recent evidence has converged in showing that the lateral occipitotemporal cortex is over-recruited during implicit motor imagery in elderly and in patients with neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease. These data suggest that when automatically imaging movements, individuals exploit neural resources in the visual areas to compensate for the decline in activating motor representations. Thus, the occipitotemporal corte…
Psychometric properties of the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale in multiple sclerosis
Riabilitazione neuropsicologica dei disturbi dell’attenzione e delle funzioni esecutive
Mapping correspondence between facial mimicry and emotion recognition in healthy subjects
We aimed at verifying the hypothesis that facial mimicry is causally and selectively involved in emotion recognition. For this purpose, in Experiment 1, we explored the effect of tonic contraction of muscles in upper or lower half of participants' face on their ability to recognize emotional facial expressions. We found that the "lower" manipulation specifically impaired recognition of happiness and disgust, the "upper" manipulation impaired reco…
