Design: The ability of performance on the emotional Stroop task to predict subsequent levels of symptomatology was examined within a longitudinal design in a group of individuals with SAD. Participants were tested in the winter when depressed and again in the summer when remitted.
Results: There was no change in emotional Stroop performance across the two time points. However, winter performance on the emotional Stroop task predicted symptom levels in the summer, even with winter symptom levels partialled out. The nature of this relationship was that a greater emotional Stroop effect for threat words in the winter was related to more improved mood in the summer. Furthermore, the strength of the relationship between lower winter emotional Stroop performance and more negative winter mood was associated with poorer mood in the summer.

Narrative mobile video game-based cognitive training to enhance frontal function in patients with mild cognitive impairment.

Although cognitive training has been proposed as a possible therapeutic modality for mild cognitive impairment (MCI), most serious games focus on specific tasks. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of narrative video game-based cognitive intervention for MCI. A four-week (± 1-week) mobile game intervention was given to 17 MCI participants (mean age (SD) = 72.

Background And Objectives: POLR3-related disorders are a group of autosomal recessive neurodegenerative diseases that usually cause leukodystrophy and can lead to cognitive dysfunction. Literature reporting comprehensive neuropsychological assessment in POLR3A-related diseases is sparse. Here we describe the neuropsychological profile of a case of childhood-onset POLR3A-related spastic ataxia without leukodystrophy.

Acute high-intensity interval training (HIIT) has cognitive benefits in individuals with methamphetamine use disorder (MUD), yet it remains largely unknown the benefits of long-term HIIT on emotional conflict control and its neural mechanism in individuals with MUD. The current study conducted a 36-week low-volume HIIT intervention to investigate the effects of HIIT on emotional conflict control in males with MUD and their prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation. This study was a sub-study of the Study for Rehabilitation Training Model Construction and Training Effect of High Intensity Compound Exercise Prescription.

Poor emotion regulation is associated with cardiovascular disease risk, with altered cardiovascular responses to psychological stress a possible underlying mechanism. However, prior research has predominantly focused on instructed (laboratory-based) emotion regulation; there is limited conclusive research on the relationship between every-day (habitual) emotion regulation and cardiovascular responses to active psychological stress. As such, this study aimed to examine the associations between two common habitual emotion regulation strategies-cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression-and cardiovascular stress responses across three independent laboratory studies, each involving a different active acute psychological stress task.

Although firefighters frequently encounter various traumatic incidents, few develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In this pilot study, we aimed to examine trauma-specific neurobiological alterations in firefighters with PTSD, distinguishing these characteristics from those of trauma-exposed controls. Twenty-two firefighters (11 firefighters with PTSD and 11 trauma-exposed controls) and 25 trauma non-exposed controls completed psychiatric questionnaires and functional magnetic resonance imaging while engaging in a trauma-specific emotional counting Stroop task for firefighters.
