It evaluates the ability of older people to maintain efficient locomotion while they need to allocate capacity-limited cognitive resources to a concomitant mental task.
This tactile-dependant motor facilitation reflected, for the large part, attentional influences associated with performing tactile discrimination, since execution of a concomitant distraction task abolished facilitation.
Under Fluoxetine, mPFC activation was up-regulated and normalized in ASD boys relative to controls, but down-regulated in ADHD boys relative to placebo, which was concomitant with worse task performance in ADHD.
Fluoxetine had an inverse, disorder-specific effect in mPFC as it increased activation in ASD boys, leading to normalization of their dysfunction relative to controls, but decreased activation in ADHD boys, concomitant with deteriorated task performance relative to controls.
Moreover, methylphenidate has been shown to improve time on-task, with concomitant decreases in the number of shifts in attention as the task progressed [ 67].
In two experiments, participants assessed these background sounds (frequency-modulated tones, broadband noise and speech) on a rating scale consisting of thirteen categories ranging from 'not annoying at all' to 'extremely annoying.' The judgments were collected immediately before, after, and concomitant to, the memory task.
To summarize, we found disorder-specific underactivation in ASD boys in mPFC, a key region of reversal learning, as well as disorder-dissociated inverse effects of Fluoxetine on this region, which upregulated and normalized dysfunction in ASD but down-regulated activation in ADHD, concomitant with worsening their task performance.
Further, the lack of policy may mean facility staff are asked to take on extraordinary tasks without the concomitant recognition or appropriate reward or job protections.
A secondary aim was to examine whether performance on that task decreased during concomitant periods of suppression.
We examined whether improvements in sensory processing, defined as changes in sensitivity, could be elicited in a simple luminance discrimination task without eliciting concomitant changes in decision processing.
