  1. 21. Functional connectivity analysis in the human brain using ultra-high field MRI

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Theodor Rumetshofer; [2021]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive method which uses a combination of a strong magnetic field and radio frequency pulses to image magnetic difference between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the human brain. This contrast differences can be used to identify areas in the brain when subjects performing an active task in the MRI scanner. READ MORE

  3. 22. Reappraisal during adolescence : A review of fMRI studies

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Karl Palmqvist; [2021]
    Keywords : Reappraisal; adolescence; reinterpretation; distancing; fMRI;

    Abstract : Adolescence is a unique period of development. This life phase seems to entail being sensitive to aversive and social cues. However, adolescents' performances have been seen as equivalent to that of adults in nonemotional contexts. READ MORE

  4. 23. Central neural correlates of generalized anxiety disorder : A systematic review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Alexandra Rundström; [2021]
    Keywords : Generalized anxiety disorder; prefrontal cortex; anterior cingulate cortex; amygdala; worry;

    Abstract : Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a prevalent anxiety disorder that is characterized by persistent excessive worrying that is often difficult to control. The pathology of GAD has been associated with abnormal neural activity and functional connectivity. READ MORE

  5. 24. Body Ownership : An Activation Likelihood Estimation Meta-Analysis

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Martin Nilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Body ownership; fMRI; ALE meta-analysis; Region of interest; Multisensory integration;

    Abstract : How is it that we feel that we own our body? And how does the brain create this feeling? By manipulating the integration of multisensory signals, researchers have recently begun to probe this question. By creating the illusory experience of owning external body-parts and entire bodies, researchers have investigated the neurofunctional correlates of body ownership. READ MORE

  6. 25. Behind the Poker Face : Systematic Review of the Neural Correlates of Expressive Suppression

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Jonathan Stenberg; [2020]
    Keywords : emotion regulation; expressive suppression; neural correlates;

    Abstract : Studies exploring the neural correlates of the emotion regulation strategy called cognitive change (reappraisal) have been thoroughly discussed and synthesized. This is not the case for another emotion regulation strategy called response modulation. READ MORE
