The Interplay of Spontaneous Pupil-Size Fluctuations and EEG Power in Near-Threshold Detection.
Psychophysiology
March 2025
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Groningen, Groningen, the Netherlands.
Detection of near-threshold stimuli depends on the properties of the stimulus and the state of the observer. In visual detection tasks, improved accuracy is associated with larger prestimulus pupil size. However, it is still unclear whether this association is due to optical effects (more light entering the eye), correlations with arousal, correlations with cortical excitability (as reflected in alpha power), or a mix of these.

Psychooncology
March 2025
Faculty of Social Welfare and Health Sciences, School of Social Work, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel.
Background: Research on the attitudes and support received by cancer survivors with preexisting severe mental health conditions (SMHC) from their families and oncology professionals is lacking.
Aims: To explore how individuals with SMHC perceive and experience family and oncology team attitudes and care.
Methods: Participants were 25 cancer survivors, 6 men and 18 women, aged 26-86 with preexisting SMHC.
Estimating Chronological Age From the Electrical Activity of the Brain: How EEG-Age Can Be Used as a Marker of General Brain Functioning.
Psychophysiology
March 2025
ARCHA, HLS, School of Psychology, Aston University, Birmingham, UK.
With an aging global population, the number of older adults with age-related changes in the brain, including dementia, will continue to increase unless we can make progress in the early detection and treatment of such conditions. There is extensive literature on the effects of aging on the EEG, particularly a decline in the Peak Alpha Frequency (PAF), but here, in a reversal of convention, we used the EEG power-frequency spectrum to estimate chronological age. The motivation for this approach was that an individual's brain age might act as a proxy for their general brain functioning, whereby a discrepancy between chronological age and EEG age could prove clinically informative by implicating deleterious conditions.

Aust Occup Ther J
April 2025
Research Development and Engagement Unit, Darling Downs Health, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.
Introduction: Occupational therapy is underpinned by the belief that occupation facilitates health and wellbeing. However, evidence suggests that occupational therapists encounter challenges to implementing occupation-centred practice. The aim of this study was to investigate the uptake, acceptability and impact of a workplace intervention designed to enhance occupation-centred practice of occupational therapists in an acute adult physical context.

J Intellect Disabil Res
March 2025
Research Department of Clinical, Educational & Health Psychology, University College London, London, UK.
Background: It is important to hear the perspectives of people with intellectual disabilities on dementia. This review aimed to explore views and experiences of dementia from the perspective of people with intellectual disabilities and methodologies enabling people with intellectual disabilities and dementia to participate in qualitative research.
Methods: Studies were identified in database searches, along with reference and citation searches.
