Revealing Different Cognitive Mechanisms of the Ebbinghaus Illusion Through Neural Oscillations Academic Background Human perception of size in vision is not entirely faithful to the physical world and is highly dependent on context. For example, when an object is surrounded by several smaller objects, it appears larger than when surrounded by larg...
Research Background and Objectives Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are a group of highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorders, primarily characterized by abnormal social interactions, communication deficits, and restricted repetitive behaviors or interests. Previous studies have reported structural changes in brain regions including the hippocam...
Repeated Low-Dose Lipopolysaccharide Pretreatment Improves Behavioral Abnormalities and Aberrant Immune Responses Induced by Repeated Social Defeat Stress Background Stress significantly impacts human health, with chronic stress particularly inducing various physiological and psychological disorders. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is...
Academic Report Research Background In recent years, there has been growing interest in individual differences within the fields of psychology and cognitive neuroscience. However, many studies face a replication crisis, particularly evident in research exploring brain-behavior correlations. A key element for replicable individual differences resear...
Humans Need Auditory Experience to Produce Typical Volitional Nonverbal Vocalizations Introduction This research paper explores whether humans require auditory input to produce nonverbal emotional expressions (such as screams and cries). While these nonverbal vocalizations seem to have a strong reflexive basis, many emotional vocalizations are unde...
Research Report on the Long-term Relationship between Time Perspective and Life Satisfaction in Adulthood Research Background Time perspective is an important predictor of human well-being. However, time perspective itself changes with development. A future-dominated time perspective gradually gives way to a present and past-focused perspective as ...
Background Introduction In the human visual system, the understanding and navigation of natural scenes are exceptionally outstanding in terms of both complexity and efficiency. This process requires the transformation of incoming sensory information into visual features ranging from low-level to high-level, such as edges, object parts, and objects ...
The Mediating Role of Systemic Inflammation in the Differences in Cognitive Disease Incidence and the Moderating Role of Racialization This study examines the link between systemic racism and the increased burden of cognitive disease. Researchers investigated the mediating role of C-reactive protein (CRP) as a marker of systemic inflammation in the...
