Ciencias cognitivas y educación : una propuesta de diálogo
(Universidad Politécnica Salesiana, 2021)En este trabajo se realiza una propuesta de comunicación transdisciplinar entre las ciencias cognitivas y la educación, tal y como se perfilan en el siglo XXI. En un primer lugar se contextualizan estos procesos de ... -
Cognitive control activity is modulated by the magnitude of interference and pre-activation of monitoring mechanisms
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-12-20)The Simon task is used to study interference from irrelevant spatial information. Interference is manifested by longer reaction times when the required response –based on non-spatial features- is spatially incompatible ... -
Combining a cognitive concurrent task with a motor or motor-cognitive task : which is better to differentiate levels of affectation in Parkinson’s disease?
(Hindawi, 2020)Cognitive decline usually coexists with motor impairment in PD. Multitask settings provide appropriate measures to evaluate the complex interaction between motor and cognitive impairments. The main objective was to analyze ... -
Dementia and challenging behaviors in gerontological centers : a case report
(MDPI, 2019)Among the main challenges in geriatric and gerontological centers, we consider, central, the individualized attention to those elderly persons with challenging behaviors, to the extent that it is possible to design preventive ... -
Design of optimal nonlinear network controllers for Alzheimer's disease
(PLOS, 2018-05-24)Brain stimulation can modulate the activity of neural circuits impaired by Alzheimer's disease (AD), having promising clinical benefit. However, all individuals with the same condition currently receive identical brain ... -
Design process and preliminary psychometric study of a video game to detect cognitive impairment in senior adults
(PEERJ INC, 2017)Introduction Assessment of episodic memory has been traditionally used to evaluate potential cognitive impairments in senior adults. Typically, episodic memory evaluation is based on personal interviews and pen-and-paper ... -
Does empirically derived classification of individuals with subjective cognitive complaints predict dementia?
(MDPI, 2019)Background: Early identification of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in people reporting subjective cognitive complaints (SCC) and the study of progression of cognitive decline are important issues in dementia research. ... -
Effects of aging and involuntary capture of attention on event-related potentials associated with the processing of and the response to a target stimulus
(Frontiers Media, 2014)The main aim of the present study was to assess whether aging modulates the effects of involuntary capture of attention by novel stimuli on performance, and on event-related potentials (ERPs) associated with target ... -
Effects of Cognitive Reserve on Cognitive Performance in a Follow-Up Study in Older Adults With Subjective Cognitive Complaints. The Role of Working Memory
(Frontiers Media, 2018)Objective: Analyze the effects of CR on cognitive performance in adults with subjective cognitive complaints at follow-up. Method: We analyzed the factorial structure of the three constructs defined in cognitive performance ... -
Effects of intensity, attention and medication on auditory‑evoked potentials in patients with fibromyalgia
(Springer Nature, 2020)Fibromyalgia (FM) has been associated to an increased processing of somatosensory stimuli, but its generalization to other sensory modalities is under discussion. To clarify this, we studied auditory event-related potentials ... -
Effects of load and maintenance duration on the time course of information encoding and retrieval in working memory: from perceptual analysis to post-categorization processes
(Frontiers Media, 2014)Working memory (WM) involves three cognitive events: information encoding, maintenance, and retrieval; these are supported by brain activity in a network of frontal, parietal and temporal regions. Manipulation of WM load ... -
El nivel de vocabulario como indicador de reserva cognitiva en la evaluación del deterioro cognitivo ligero
(Universidad de Murcia, 2014)El presente trabajo estudia el papel del vocabulario, como indicador de reserva cognitiva,en la evaluación del Deterioro Cognitivo Ligero (DCL). Participaron 326 adultos mayores de 50 años, clasificados en dos ... -
Electrophysiological Correlates of Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment in a Simon Task
(PLoS, 2013-12-05)Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) represents a prodromal stage of Alzheimer`s disease (AD), especially when additional cognitive domains are affected (Petersen et al., 2009). Thus, single-domain amnestic MCI (sdaMCI) ... -
Episodix: a serious game to detect cognitive impairment in senior adults. A psychometric study
(PEERJ INC, 2018)Introduction Assessment of episodic memory is traditionally used to evaluate potential cognitive impairments in senior adults. The present article discusses the capabilities of Episodix, a game to assess the aforementioned ... -
Event-related brain potential indexes provide evidence for some decline in healthy people with subjective memory complaints during target evaluation and response inhibition processing
(Elsevier, 2021)In the preclinical stage of the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum, subjects report subjective memory complaints (SMCs), although with the absence of any objective decline, and have a higher risk of progressing to dementia ... -
Event-Related Potentials Reveal Altered Executive Control Activity in Healthy Elderly With Subjective Memory Complaints
(Frontiers Media, 2018)Several studies reported that healthy elderly with subjective memory complaints (SMC) evolve to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) more frequently than elderly without subjective memory decline. In the present study, we investigated ... -
Factores de estado de ánimo precompetitivo en adolescentes de deportes colectivos y satisfacción con el rendimiento
(Universitat de les Illes BalearsUniversitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 2016)Esta investigación estuvo guiada por el modelo teórico de Lane y Terry (2000) y se realizó con el objetivo de estudiar el perfil de estado de ánimo en deportistas adolescentes, así como su vínculo con el rendimiento posterior ... -
First-time admissions for opioid treatment: crosssectional and descriptive study of new opioid users seeking treatment
(Dove Medical Press, 2015)Background: The purpose of this study was to gain an understanding of the profiles of the new treatment demands posed by opioid addicts between 2005 and 2010 at the addictive disorders assistance units in Galicia, ... -
Functional Equivalence of Imagined vs. Real Performance of an Inhibitory Task: An EEG/ERP Study
(Frontiers Media, 2016-09-16)Early neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies suggested that motor imagery recruited a different network than motor execution. However, several studies have provided evidence for the involvement of the same circuits ... -
