Measures of executive function may not be indicators of latent constructs
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by Jordan Holmén, William Chaplin, Tamara Del Vecchio
2M ago
Abstract Executive function (EF) is represented by a multidimensional set of measures. The central EFs considered are inhibitory control, working memory and cognitive flexibility (task shifting). Unlike other ability constructs, it has proven difficult to identify latent factors that underlie EF. Research has often taken a factor analytic approach for grouping executive functioning tasks. However, this approach has often proven unsuccessful. We aimed to compare factor analysis to a network analytic approach, as network analysis can summarize the pattern of relationships among elements without ..read more

An immersive virtual reality tool for assessing left and right unilateral spatial neglect
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by Marine Thomasson, Daniel Perez‐Marcos, Sonia Crottaz‐Herbette, Fanny Brenet, Arnaud Saj, Thérèse Bernati, Andrea Serino, Tej Tadi, Olaf Blanke, Roberta Ronchi
2M ago
Abstract The reported rate of the occurrence of unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is highly variable likely due to the lack of validity and low sensitivity of classical tools used to assess it. Virtual reality (VR) assessments try to overcome these limitations by proposing immersive and complex environments. Nevertheless, existing VR-based tasks are mostly focused only on near space and lack analysis of psychometric properties and/or clinical validation. The present study evaluates the clinical validity and sensitivity of a new immersive VR-based task to assess USN in the extra-personal space a ..read more

Disentangling effects of remote mild traumatic brain injury characteristics and posttraumatic stress on processing speed and executive function in veterans
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by Ryan C. Thompson, Meredith R. D. Melinder, Heather A. Daly, Stacie L. Warren
2M ago
Abstract Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and posttraumatic stress are prevalent in military service members and share objective and subjective cognitive symptoms, complicating recovery. We investigated the effects of remote mTBI characteristics and current posttraumatic stress symptoms on neuropsychological performance in 152 veterans with a history of remote mTBI and current cognitive concerns. Participants completed clinical neuropsychological evaluations within a Veterans Affairs Level-II TBI/Polytrauma outpatient clinic (i.e. tertiary trauma care center for US military veterans outside ..read more

The guaranteed euros: Probabilistic discounting in behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by Claire Boutoleau‐Bretonnière, Dimitrios Kapogiannis, Mohamad El Haj
3M ago
Abstract Financial decision-making requires trading off between guaranteed and probabilistic outcomes and between immediate and delayed ones. While research has demonstrated that patients with behavioural-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) prefer immediate rewards at the expense of future ones (i.e. temporal discounting), little is known about how patients choose between smaller, guaranteed and larger, but probabilistic, outcomes (i.e. probabilistic discounting). We thus investigated probabilistic discounting by inviting 18 patients with bvFTD and 20 control participants to choose between ..read more

Verb generation for presurgical mapping: Gaining specificity
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by Elena Salillas, Concetta Luisi, Giorgio Arcara, Elif Nur Varlı, Domenico d'Avella, Carlo Semenza
3M ago
Abstract Verb generation is among the most frequently used tasks in presurgical mapping. Because this task involves many processes, the overall brain effects are not specific. While it is necessary to identify the whole network involving noun comprehension or semantic retrieval and lexical selection to produce the verb, isolation of those components is also crucial. Here, we present data from four patients undergoing presurgical brain mapping. The study implied a reanalysis of magnetoencephalography data with a recategorization of the used items. It aimed to extract the task component that rel ..read more

Feasibility and relevance of an immersive virtual reality cancellation task assessing far space in unilateral spatial neglect
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by A. Guilbert, T.‐G. Bara, T. Bouchara, M. Gaffard, C. Bourlon
4M ago
Abstract Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is a highly prevalent neuropsychological syndrome. However, its assessment in clinical practice, mainly based on paper-and-pencil tests, encounters limits as only near space, called peripersonal, is assessed. However, USN is a multicomponent syndrome that can also affect far space, called extrapersonal. This space is not assessed in current clinical assessment although it can be more impacted than peripersonal space. Immersive virtual reality (VR) allows developing tasks in far space to assess this heterogeneity. This study aimed to test the feasibilit ..read more

IDEAL monitoring of musical skills during awake craniotomy: From step 1 to step 2
Wiley Online Library » Journal of Neuropsychology
by C. H. Ferrier, C. Ruis, D. Zadelhoff, P. A. J. T. Robe, M. J. E. van Zandvoort
5M ago
Abstract The aim of awake brain surgery is to perform a maximum resection on the one hand, and to preserve cognitive functions, quality of life and personal autonomy on the other hand. Historically, language and sensorimotor functions were most frequently monitored. Over the years other cognitive functions, including music, have entered the operation theatre. Cases about monitoring musical abilities during awake brain surgery are emerging, and a systematic method how to monitor music would be the next step. According to the IDEAL framework for surgical innovations our study aims to present fut ..read more
