Age-related changes in brain activity are specific for high order cognitive processes during successful encoding of information in working memory
(Frontiers Media, 2015)Memory capacity suffers an age-related decline, which is supposed to be due to a generalized slowing of processing speed and to a reduced availability of processing resources. Information encoding in memory has been ... -
Age-related effects on event-related brain potentials in a congruence/incongruence judgment color-word Stroop task
(Frontiers Media, 2014)We examined the event-related brain potentials elicited by color-word stimuli in a Stroop task in which healthy participants (young and old) had to judge whether the meaning and the color of the stimulus were congruent or ... -
An Event Related Potentials Study of the Effects of Age, Load and Maintenance Duration on Working Memory Recognition
(PLOS, 2015-11-16)Age-related decline in cognitive capacities has been attributed to a generalized slowing of processing speed and a reduction in working memory (WM) capacity. Nevertheless, it is unclear how age affects visuospatial WM ... -
Análisis de la cohesión grupal de los equipos de futbol sala de máxima categoría en Galicia (España)
(Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 2016)Este trabajo tiene como objetivo evaluar las dimensiones de la cohesión grupal, las relaciones entre dichas variables y el efecto que tiene sobre el puesto ocupado por los equipos en la clasificación final. La muestra ... -
Assessing mild behavioral impairment with the mild behavioral impairment checklist in people with subjective cognitive decline
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-04-04)Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of Mild Behavioral Impairment (MBI) in people with Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD), and validate the Mild Behavioral Impairment Checklist (MBI-C) with respect to score distribution, ... -
Assessing Mild Behavioral Impairment with the Mild Behavioral Impairment-Checklist in People with Mild Cognitive Impairment
(IOS Press, 2018-08-01)Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are non-cognitive, behavioral, or psychiatric symptoms, common in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and associated with a higher risk of dementia. Mild behavioral impairment (MBI) ... -
Brain dinamics associated with face-naming and the tip-of-the-tongue state
(Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos del Principado, 2011)Active brain areas and their temporal sequence of activation during the successful retrieval and naming of famous faces (KNOW) and during the tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) state were studied by means of low resolution ... -
Broad cognitive complaints but subtle objective working memory impairment in fibromyalgia patients
(PEERJ INC, 2018)Background Cognitive dysfunction in fibromyalgia (FM) encompasses objective cognitive difficulties, as measured in neuropsychological tests, and self-reported cognitive complaints. Although it has been suggested that FM ... -
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 ... -
