AI Article Synopsis

  • The paper presents a cognitive-behavioral framework for understanding both active and passive leadership styles.
  • It suggests that leaders show consistent behaviors based on their fundamental self-beliefs and perceptions (core evaluations), while their actions can vary based on situational factors and immediate evaluations of themselves and their surroundings.
  • By integrating these elements, the authors propose a model that explores how leaders' behaviors are influenced by their beliefs, appraisals, and the contexts in which they operate.

Article Abstract

In the present paper, we propose a cognitive-behavioral understanding of active and passive leadership. Building on core evaluations theory, we offer a model that explains the emergence of leaders' active and passive behaviors, thereby predicting stable, inter-individual, as well as variable, intra-individual differences in both types of leadership behavior. We explain leaders' stable behavioral tendencies by their fundamental beliefs about themselves, others, and the world (core evaluations), while their variable, momentary behaviors are explained by the leaders' momentary appraisals of themselves, others, and the world (specific evaluations). By introducing interactions between the situation the leader enters, the leader's beliefs, appraisals, and behavior, we propose a comprehensive system of cognitive mechanisms that underlie active and passive leadership behavior.

Background: Grid cells are spatially modulated cells in the entorhinal cortex (EC) that fire in a hexagonally patterned grid which tiles the environment. These cells are assumed important in human spatial navigation. The EC is vulnerable to neurodegenerative processes in both normal aging and Alzheimer's disease and decline in grid cell function may be a key factor in understanding age-related navigational decline.

Background: Recent advances in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutics involve immunization against amyloid-β (Aβ). Post-mortem brain analysis from the first active Aβ immunotherapy trial indicated clearance of Aβ in some AD patients. Yet, the mechanisms regulating Aβ clearance following immunization remain unknown.

Background: Anti-amyloid antibodies have been associated with amyloid-related-imaging-abnormalities (ARIA) in AD patients, causing vasogenic edema and microhemorrhages, especially in ApoE4 carriers. Here, we compared recombinant 3D6-L, a murine version of bapineuzumab, and an isotype control IgG2a monoclonal antibody (mAb) to investigate potential mechanisms, including complement activation, involved in these side effects (ARIA-H or microhemorrhages) following passive immunization.

Method: Plaque-rich 16.

Background: We recently demonstrated that large extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by Aβ-loaded microglia and carrying Aβ (Aβ-EVs) propagate synaptic dysfunction in the mouse brain by moving at the axon surface (Gabrielli et al., Brain, 2022; Falcicchia et al., Brain Commun, 2023).

Background: Altered neuronal timing and synchrony are biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and correlate with memory impairments. Electrical stimulation of the fornix, the main fibre bundle connecting the hippocampus to the septum, has emerged as a potential intervention to restore network synchrony and memory performance in human AD and mouse models. However, electrical stimulation is non-specific and may partially explain why fornix stimulation in AD patients has yielded mixed results.
