This study investigated the neural correlates of preference for solitude and social withdrawal in a sample of 2809 youth [median (IQR) age = 12.0 (1.1) years, 1440 (51.26%) females] from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study. Older youth whose parents had mental health issues more frequently preferred solitude and/or were socially withdrawn (β = 0.04 to 0.14, CI = [0.002, 0.19], P < 0.05), both of which were associated with internalizing and externalizing behaviors, depression, and anxiety (β = 0.25 to 0.45, CI = [0.20, 0.49], P < 0.05). Youth who preferred solitude and/or were socially withdrawn had lower cortical thickness in regions involved in social function (cuneus, insula, anterior cingulate, and superior temporal gyri) and/or mental health (β = -0.09 to -0.02, CI = [-0.14, -0.003], P < 0.05), and higher amygdala, entorhinal cortex, parahippocampal gyrus, and basal ganglia volume (β = 2.62 to 668.10, CI = [0.13, 668.10], P < 0.05). Youth who often preferred solitude had more topologically segregated dorsal attention, temporoparietal, and social networks (β = 0.07 to 0.10, CI = [0.02, 0.14], P ≤ 0.03). Socially withdrawn youth had a less topologically robust and efficient (β = -0.05 to -0.80, CI = [-1.34,-0.01], P < 0.03) and more fragile cerebellum (β = 0.04, CI = [0.01, 0.07], P < 0.05). These findings suggest that social isolation in adolescence may be a risk factor for widespread alterations in brain regions supporting social function and mental health.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145205819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sixteen highs and 16 lows were enrolled, informed that they would be submitted to hypnotic induction and studied across a session including open and closed eyes waking rest, hypnotic induction, neutral hypnosis, and post hypnosis open eyes rest.

Neuroimaging and behavioral studies found anomalous responses in tasks requiring phonological processing, motion perception, and implicit learning, and showed gray and white matter abnormalities in dyslexics compared to controls, indicating that dyslexia is highly heterogeneous and promoting a multifactorial approach. To evaluate whether combining behavioral and multimodal MRI improves sensitivity in identifying dyslexia neurocognitive traits compared to monocomponential approaches, 19 dyslexic and 19 control subjects underwent cognitive assessments, multiple (phonological, visual motion, rhythmic) mismatch-response functional MRI tasks, structural diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and T1-weighted imaging. Between group differences in the neurocognitive measures were tested with univariate and multivariate approaches. Results showed that dyslexics performed worse than controls in phonological tasks and presented reduced cerebellar responses to mismatching rhythmic stimuli, as well as structural disorganization in white matter tracts and cortical regions. Most importantly, a machine learning model trained with features from all three MRI modalities discriminated between dyslexics and controls with greater accuracy than single-modality models. The individual classification scores in the multimodal machine learning model correlated with behavioral reading accuracy. These results characterize dyslexia as a composite condition with multiple distinctive cognitive and brain traits.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12499769/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145238157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To examine the network's dynamics under different sensorimotor demands, an electroencephalographic experiment was performed, contrasting visual detection and discrimination variants of a Posner cueing task. In the former, the required response can be prepared before target onset, whereas in the latter-only after target onset. Using the generalized eigenvalue decomposition method for EEG source isolation, we identified four network subcomponents: lateral motor, lateral visual, midfrontal, and midparietal sources. The local and inter-source activity relevant for spatial attention (visual and midparietal sources) were involved before target onset in both tasks but stronger for the discrimination task. The local activity and inter-source connectivity relevant for action control (motor and midfrontal sources) were involved before target onset only in the detection task. Importantly, in line with the model's predictions, we observed that proactive response preparation in the detection task entailed beta-band connectivity between the response control areas and visual areas. Moreover, we observed a response-related spatial modulation of pre-target local visual alpha activity in the detection task. These results likely reflect automatic visuomotor integration.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12507028/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145250087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bayesian frameworks argue that integration of evidence over time allows us to refine our state belief by reducing uncertainty about alternate possibilities. How is this increasing belief precision during learning reflected in the brain? We propose that temporal neural variability should scale with the degree of reduction of uncertainty during learning. In a sample of 47 healthy adults, we found that BOLD signal variability (SDBOLD, as measured across independent learning trials) indeed compressed with successive exposure to decision-related evidence. Crucially, more accurate participants expressed greater SDBOLD compression primarily in default mode network regions, possibly reflecting the increasing precision of their latent state belief during more efficient learning. Further, computational modeling of behavior suggested that more accurate subjects held a more unbiased (flatter) prior belief over possible states that allowed for larger uncertainty reduction during learning, which was directly reflected in SDBOLD changes. Our results provide first evidence that neural variability compresses with increasing belief precision during effective learning, proposing a flexible mechanism for how we come to learn the probabilistic nature of the world around us.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12449128/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145091298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How do our mind/brains represent such environments? To address this question, we familiarized participants with a virtual environment consisting of a building within a courtyard, with objects distributed throughout the courtyard and building interior. We then scanned them with functional MRI (fMRI) while they performed a memory task that required them to think about spatial relationships within and across the subspaces. Behavioral responses were less accurate and response times were longer on trials requiring integration across the subspaces compared to trials not requiring integration. FMRI response differences between integration and non-integration trials were observed in scene-responsive and medial temporal lobe brain regions, which were correlated the behavioral integration effects in retrosplenial complex, occipital place area, and hippocampus. Multivoxel pattern analyses provided additional evidence for representations in these brain regions that reflected the hierarchical organization of the environment. These results indicate that people form cognitive maps of nested spaces by dividing them into subspaces and using an active cognitive process to integrate the subspaces. Similar mechanisms might be used to support hierarchical coding in memory more broadly.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12452280/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145124288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A key factor in the choices is reward-specific satiety, which is the sensory-specific decrease in the reward value of a particular reward when it is consumed to satiety. Another key factor is reward-specific motivation, the increase in the reward value of a reward when it is first provided. Here, we develop the theory based on experimental evidence in humans and other primates, that reward-specific satiety is implemented in orbitofrontal cortex reward value neurons by adaptation in the synapses from visual and taste cortical regions in which the neuronal firing is not influenced by reward-specific satiety. Correspondingly we develop the theory that reward-specific motivation (or incentive motivation) is implemented by shorter-term synaptic facilitation in the same synapses on to orbitofrontal cortex reward value neurons. We complement the theories with an integrate-and-fire neuronal network model of how these reward value computations are performed in the orbitofrontal cortex by synaptic adaptation and synaptic facilitation in the afferent connections to orbitofrontal cortex reward value neurons, to implement a profound influence on behavioral choice that has great adaptive value for humans and many other animals.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145091279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the primary visual cortex (V1), while most neurons are orientation-selective, a small portion exhibits a lack of this selectivity. However, it remains unclear what roles the orientation-untuned V1 neurons play in population orientation discrimination. Here, we analyzed data from a 2-photon calcium imaging study that recorded the responses of thousands of V1 neurons to a grating stimulus at various orientations in awake macaques. Our population analysis reveals that orientation-untuned neurons can independently decode stimulus orientation with accuracy comparable to tuned neurons. Remarkably, we found that the more critical role of orientation-untuned neuronal populations in orientation encoding is to enhance coding robustness, specifically by reducing sensitivity to noise. Moreover, when using artificial neural networks to model the primate ventral visual pathway, we found that the V1-like layer also contains a proportion of orientation-untuned units. Removing these units leads to significant impairments in natural object recognition. Overall, these results indicate that orientation-untuned neurons encode orientation information and play a crucial role in primate visual perception. The study provides compelling evidence for a continuous distribution of visual features across neurons and challenges the notion of highly specialized units.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145124278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When we perceive something to be in someone else's attention, we understand it to be in that person's mind in the moment, ready to affect that person's choices. It has been proposed that people construct predictive models of the attentional state of others. In that proposal, a working understanding of someone else's attention goes far beyond merely tracking the direction of someone's eyes. For example, in a recent study, participants watched a spotlight of attention moving around a picture and successfully judged whether the trace represented real, human attention or an artificially manipulated version, demonstrating implicit information about how patterns of attention behave over space and time. However, the neuronal underpinnings of attention modeling are almost entirely unstudied. Here we tested people in an fMRI scanner while they performed the attention judgment paradigm. When contrasting attention traces that participants judged to be artificial versus those judged to be real, activity was found bilaterally in the precuneus, dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate, and anterior insula, as well as in a part of the right temporoparietal junction. These areas partially overlap the theory-of-mind network and the salience network. The activations differ from those known to be involved in processing low-level features of attention such as the sight of other people's eyes. The results provide an initial picture of the cortical networks involved in monitoring the attention patterns of others and recognizing when those patterns deviate from expectation.","PeriodicalId":9715,"journal":{"name":"Cerebral cortex","volume":"35 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12466331/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145147922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
