    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Zoey Gard; [2023]
    Keywords : ADHD; inhibition; fmri; inhibitory control;

    Abstract : Inhibitory control refers to a person’s ability to control responses and impulses. Deficits in inhibitory control have been found in the neurodevelopmental disorder of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), though this has mainly been studied in children. READ MORE

    Keywords : Reinforcement Learning; Dopamine; Basal Ganglia; Successor Representation; förstärkningsinlärning; dopamin; basala ganglierna; successionsrepresentation;

    Abstract : Accumulating evidence suggests that dopaminergic neurons show significant task-related diversity. Curiously, dopamine concentration and dopamine axon activity show spatio-temporal wave patterns in the dorsal striatum. READ MORE

  6. 5. The positive effect of exercise on mood, as a non-motor symptom, in Parkinson's disease

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för organismbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Keywords : parkinson s disease; parkinson s; mood; depression; anxiety; apathy; exercise;

    Abstract : Parkinson’s Disease is a degenerative neurological disease where dopaminergic neurons in the basal ganglia degenerate and die. This leads to dopamine deficiency in the basal ganglia, affecting both motor and non-motor systems, giving both motor and non-motor symptoms. READ MORE
