Machine learning analyses are widely used for predicting cognitive abilities, yet there are pitfalls that need to be considered during their implementation and interpretation of the results. Hence, the present study aimed at drawing attention to the ...
The insular cortex serves as a critical hub for human cognition, but how its anatomically distinct subregions coordinate diverse cognitive, emotional, and social functions remains unclear. Using the Human Connectome Project's multi-task fMRI dataset ...
BACKGROUND: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is characterized by impairments in executive functioning, particularly response inhibition (RI). This study combines time-domain analysis and source analyses of event-related potentials (ERP...
Brain age has emerged as a powerful tool to understand neuroanatomical aging and its link to health outcomes like cognition. However, there remains a lack of studies investigating the rate of brain aging and its relationship to cognition. Furthermore...
Apathy is common in persons with dementias, especially those in long-term care facilities (LTCs). Few pharmacologic options exist; a major strategy is to foster engagement in social, physical, and cognitive activities, but requires extensive personne...

INTRODUCTION: Obsessive compulsive disorder is associated with affected executive functioning, including memory, cognitive flexibility, and organizational strategies. As it was reported in previous studies, patients with preserved executive functions...
Cognitive impairments are core features in individuals across the psychosis continuum and predict functional outcomes. Nevertheless, substantial variability in cognitive functioning within diagnostic groups, along with considerable overlap with healt...
Patients with mental illnesses, particularly psychosis and obsessive‒compulsive disorder (OCD), frequently exhibit deficits in executive function and visuospatial memory. Traditional assessments, such as the Rey‒Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (RCFT),...
