Previous studies using n-back tasks showed that both lateral prefrontal activity and pupil diameter are good indicators of cognitive load. However, the relationship between lateral prefrontal activity and pupil diameter was load-dependent, and a significant positive correlation was observed in the low-load 0-back condition but not in the high-load 3-back condition. In this study, we utilized Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and eye tracking to investigate the load-dependent relationship between lateral prefrontal cortex activity and pupil diameter in the context of driving. Participants drove on a mountain pass using a commercially available driving game, with and without engagement in a secondary conversation task. The NIRS and eye tracker experiments were conducted separately. The results showed that the pupil diameter and Oxy-Hb concentrations in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex increased significantly in the driving condition that included the conversation task compared to the normal driving condition. Furthermore, we found a significant positive correlation under the high-load conversational driving condition, in which individuals with larger pupil diameters showed greater left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activity, but not so under low-load normal driving condition. Our findings provide further evidence of a load-dependent relationship between lateral prefrontal cortex activity and pupil diameter and reveal that the relationship was not simply dependent on the degree of cognitive load but also on the nature of the task, possibly due to the differential engagement of executive function and arousal.</p>","PeriodicalId":19869,"journal":{"name":"Perceptual and Motor Skills","volume":" ","pages":"764-784"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143701002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The MMM contains four types of mindset profiles (high-impact, low-impact, social-impact, and self-impact) based on multiple, co-occurring motives that students hold for studying. The present paper aims to qualitatively investigate the mechanism and explores whether the goal-setting intervention fosters a favorable change in mindset. To this end, a deductive content analysis was used to examine the life goal motives in the written goal-setting essays of 48 first-year university students (33% female; 8.3% ethnic minority; M_age = 19.5, age range 17-30 years). Life goal motives were coded according to four dimensions along two distinctions (self-oriented versus self-transcendent, and intrinsic versus extrinsic) and analyses were focused on comparisons between changed and stable mindsets. Results show that students who changed from a low-impact mindset to a social-impact mindset expressed intrinsic self-oriented and intrinsic self-transcendent motives to a similar extent as stable social-impact mindset students. This pattern indicates that the positive change in mindset already occurred during the reflection assignment and substantiates the proposed mechanism of the goal-setting intervention.

Behavioral performance and eye movements were measured. FP-SOC and NFP-SOC exhibit same age preference patterns for children and adults, but both groups differ significantly with respect to sexual attentional control. Moderate discrimination accuracy and moderate effect sizes resulted for sexual interest, and good discrimination accuracy and large effect sizes were found for attentional control. Good attentional control in the NFP-SOC, probably reflecting superior sexual self-control and self-regulation abilities, might contribute to a better recognition and control of environmental factors in sexual risk situations, preventing them from being detected and convicted. Otherwise, strong cognitive distortions might serve for them as offense justification. We conclude that those non-forensic persons with sexual offense histories against children (NFP-SOC) with sexual interest in children, good attentional self-control and strong cognitive distortions represent a problematic group which should receive more attention regarding further research but also therapy.

In a second experiment, utilizing only nondependent, saline-infused rats, pimavanserin had no significant effect vs. saline injection on overall signs. A third experiment extended these findings to naloxone-precipitated morphine withdrawal. Relative to saline injection, pimavanserin, 1.3 mg/kg s.c., significantly reduced withdrawal signs precipitated by 0.3 mg/kg naloxone 1 h later. This effect was reconfirmed in a separate experiment. The pimavanserin injection also significantly attenuated the aversiveness of morphine withdrawal, as indicated by reduced conditioned avoidance of the chamber where precipitated withdrawal had occurred.
