AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Despite the increased recognition of the critical role of social and psychological factors in health and illness, the teaching of psychology is rarely integrated in medical education. Staff generally have minimal formal training in psychological concepts. Patients on the inpatient rehabilitation unit frequently present with unexpected reactions in response to acute trauma and resulting changes in identity and capabilities. Rehabilitation goals therefore, must be based on psychological, as well as physical, capacities. A one-page, "user-friendly" newsletter was designed to illustrate basic psychological principles via case vignettes. The topics of fear, countertransference, and resistance were selected as critical issues staff frequently encounter in their work with patients. The newsletters provided the staff with basic conceptual tools for effectively treating patients, and the work of psychologists was demystified. The newsletter format is proposed as a creative adjunct to didactic teaching.

This study investigates the functional network underlying response inhibition in the human brain, particularly the role of the basal ganglia in successful action cancellation. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) approaches have frequently used the stop-signal task to examine this network. We merge five such datasets, using a novel aggregatory method allowing the unification of raw fMRI data across sites.
