  1. 1. Traumatic brain injury and its impact on working memory : A systematic review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Li Hallgren; Naema Adani Mohammed; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Traumatic brain injury; working memory; prefrontal cortex; functional magnetic resonance imaging; transcranial direct current stimulation;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this systematic review is to provide insight into the impact traumatic brain injury (TBI) has on the executive function known as the working memory. TBI is a damage to the brain that occurs when the brain is critically injured to the degree that it impacts several brain regions and functions such as the hippocampus, its surrounding areas, the prefrontal cortex, and the performance of the working memory ability.

  2. 2. Enhancing Sensory Discrimination Training using Brain Modulation

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Agnes Westerlund; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Transcranial direct current stimulation; sensory discrimination training; tactile acuity; phantom limb pain; two-point discrimination test; Semmes-Weinstein monofilament test;

    Sammanfattning : Damage to the nervous system may cause sensorimotor impairment, often resulting in chronic neuropathic pain. Phantom limb pain affects multiple amputees and the treatment options are limited. A promising treatment option to reduce chronic pain is by training sensory discrimination. LÄS MER

  3. 3. CAN WE REDUCE THE ONSET AND RECIDIVISM OF CRIME WITH NON-INVASIVE BRAIN STIMULATION? A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF THE EFFECTS OF TRANSCRANIAL DIRECT CURRENT STIMULATION ON RESPONSE INHIBITION

    Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Författare :Maria Teresa Vaos Solano; [2018]
    Nyckelord :anti-social behavior; crime; deviant behavior; executive functions; noninvasive brain stimulation; response inhibition; transcranial direct current stimulation;

    Sammanfattning : Deficits in executive functions, specifically in response inhibition (RI), have been reported in antisocial behavior, conduct disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), etc. Individuals with deficits in RI have a high probability to show non-adapted social behavior that can lead to crime.

  4. 4. Attentiveness interacts with the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation and white noise on cognitive performance

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Författare :Jóhanna Maria Magnusardóttir; [2016]
    Nyckelord :attentiveness; white noise; transcranial direct current stimulation; moderate brain arousal model; stochastic resonance; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Scarce research has been conducted on the moderating role of attentiveness in the effect of tDCS on cognitive performance. On the other hand, research on the impact of auditory noise on attention has generally demonstrated the detrimental effect of task-irrelevant noise on performance of cognitive tasks, yet has also neglected to explore the role of attentiveness in this relationship.

  5. 5. The Role of Primary Visual Cortex in Visual Awareness

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Linnea Thulin Nilsson; [2015]
    Nyckelord :primary visual cortex; V1; visual awareness;

    Sammanfattning : Despite its great complexity, a great deal is known about the organization and information-processing properties of the visual system. However, the neural correlates of visual awareness are not yet understood. By studying patients with blindsight, the primary visual cortex (V1) has attracted a lot of attention recently. LÄS MER
