Implicit processing relates to observed cues, and explicit processing to inference of the expressed emotion. However, the relationships between implicit and explicit processing, and between emotion recognition from facial expressions and from utterances, have not yet been empirically determined. To investigate this issue, the present study examined the more important cues in judging the emotion of the expressor by presenting facial expressions that expressed different emotions in the eyes and mouth, and utterances that expressed different emotions in prosody and lexical content. Additionally, the study examined the cues the participants were more likely to focus their attention on. The results indicated no relationship between implicit and explicit processing. However, an association between the explicit processing of facial expressions and that of utterances was observed, suggesting that explicit processing is independent of implicit processing, and influenced by social conventions. These findings expand our knowledge regarding the processes involved in emotion recognition.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

Suryasree, Subramanian Kadhiravan","doi":"10.24193/cbb.2022.26.13","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.24193/cbb.2022.26.13","url":null,"abstract":"Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) pose a serious threat to global public health due to its high prevalence and mortality. Meanwhile, psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) has gained popularity due to its beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system. There is substantial evidence that PSR is effective in lessening cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in CVD patients. To learn more about the development of PSR, 3,759 publications about PSR and related research were retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection from 1989 to 2022. Then, these publications were analysed using CiteSpace 6.1.R3 (64-bit) W version software in terms of country and institution-based analysis, author co-citation analysis (ACA), keyword analysis, and document co-citation analysis (DCA). The outcomes were elaborated in four aspects. First, the number of annual publications related to PSR has consistently increased in last three decades. Second, country and institution-based analysis showed that a few developed countries such as the United States, England and Canada, and institutions such as the Harvard University, the University of California, and the University of Toronto were the most active countries and institutions in carrying out PSR-related studies. Third, author co-citation analysis (ACA) revealed that Sherry L. Grace from York University had the highest number of publications (35). Her research majorly focused on optimizing post-acute cardiovascular care and its outcomes that contribute to the field of PSR. Frasure-Smith had the highest burst count of 41.39. His research mainly emphasized on the impact of psychological stress in acute myocardial infarction which is related to CVD. Document co-citation analysis (DCA) revealed that epidemiologic evidence was the predominant cluster in the domain of PSR. Fourth, Keyword based analysis showed that keywords such as coronary heart disease, cardiovascular disease, acute myocardial infarction and major depression made outstanding contribution to the PSR field. In conclusion, this study has provided useful information for gaining knowledge about PSR such as identifying potential contributors for researchers interested in the field of PSR, and discovering research trends in PSR, which can provide guidance for more extensive studies related to PSR in the future.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

The target stimuli were presented in foveal vision, where masking effects are generally investigated and where crowding effects are typically small compared to peripheral vision. The second experiment investigated the potential involvement of the dorsal visual pathway by testing if a peripheral crowding stimulus could interfere with the perception of a target shape, if it were scaled to account for low visual acuity? The results of both experiments indicated strong congruency effects, especially for pattern and metacontrast masking (which, in some respects, is similar to crowding). Congruency effects were generally weak for distractors presented further from the target. In Experiment 2, cortically scaled distractors only showed a potential influence in the forward masking condition. Perhaps this is an indication of a priming effect from the distant crowding stimuli. Further research might reveal the extent to which crowding displays can test physiologically motivated hypotheses.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

According to an influential study by Waugh and Norman (1965), retroactive interference causes forgetting. The current study attempted to reproduce this conclusion in a Bangladeshi culture with stronger statistical power. Thirty four undergraduate students were examined at two different stimulus presentation paces (slow/fast pace) with varying numbers of interfering digits. The presentation pace was used to index decay, and the number of interfering items was used to index interference. The findings of a direct replication effort revealed that recall performance decreased with increasing interfering items, although the pattern of decreased performance did not reflect the original study. Furthermore, the slow pace condition yielded better outcomes than the fast pace compared to decay account. The findings pave the way for reconsidering how retroactive interference influences mental practice effects.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

The results of the mediation analysis show that the number of teams an employee is a part of simultaneously is not linearly associated with work-related well-being, burnout and work-family conflict. Also, work-related well-being is not significantly associated with work-family conflict. Conversely, an increased level of burnout is associated with increased work-family conflict. However, work-related well-being and burnout are not mediators of the relationship between the number of the teams an employee is part of simultaneously and work-family conflict.

Recently, the diagnostic tools and pharmacological treatments have shown a rising potential. Yet, non-pharmacological interventions have attracted significant interest. However, the effectiveness of such interventions has remained controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate whether working memory training changes the EEG and cognitive performance at resting state in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Twenty patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease were recruited and randomly divided into training and control groups. The training group received twenty-five sessions of adaptive n-back training. Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE), digit span, and EEG were assessed before and after the intervention period. Working memory training led to a significant increase in MMSE score and alpha power over the frontal and parietal- occipital regions. Nonsignificant increase of the log EEG power was shown for beta, theta, and delta concerning the entire regions. Adaptive n-back training is effective on quantitative EEG in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

A total sample of 126 Argentine adults, both genders, participated and filled in the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R), the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) scale, a sociodemographic questionnaire, and COVID-19 estimates regarding risk perception and preventive behaviors. Results show that people with undercontrolled personality profile and high interpersonal sensitivity overestimated their probability of getting infected, hospitalization, and dying from COVID-19. In addition, the resilient profile group with high anxiety overestimated the probability of hospitalization and dying; the undercontrolled profile group with high anxiety, phobic anxiety, or psychoticism, also overestimated their probability of dying; the undercontrolled profile people with high interpersonal sensitivity, or high anxiety reported higher probabilities of maintaining social distance. Anxiety and depression symptoms explain a low percentage of the perceived risk variance; while conscientiousness, together with mental health were able to explain the estimated probability of engaging in protective behaviors. These findings could be useful to implement more effective and realistic strategies to promote the adoption of preventive behaviors.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.

It has changed society into a connected world. The spread of COVID-19 changed individuals' daily routines drastically over the past two years, especially among youth due to the temporary closure of colleges and universities. The usage of digital devices by youth has increased as a result of online learning platforms, leading to digital reliance and a negative impact on their sleep quality. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate (1) the association between digital amnesia, sleep disorders and somatic symptoms, (2) the difference in digital amnesia based on the demographic categories, (3) the effect of digital amnesia and sleep disorders on somatic symptoms. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 326 young people aged 18 to 25 years. Data was collected from participants using the Digital Amnesia Scale, Sleep Disorders Symptom Checklist (SDS-CL-17), and Somatic Symptom Disorder-B Criteria Scale (SSD-12). There was a significant association between digital amnesia, sleep disorders, and somatic symptoms among youth. Youth differed significantly in their digital amnesia based on their demographic categories such as gender and family type. Somatic symptoms among youth were significantly impacted by digital amnesia and sleep disorders. Youth could overcome their digital amnesia by utilizing digital devices effectively. Youth could also be sensitized about adverse effects of digital amnesia. Taking a digital break could help them improve their quality of sleep and reduce somatic symptoms.","PeriodicalId":37371,"journal":{"name":"Cognition, Brain, Behavior.
