Audiovisual integration in children with cochlear implants revealed through EEG and fNIRS

Author(s): Alemi R; Wolfe J; Neumann S; Manning J; Towler W; Koirala N; Gracco VL; Deroche M;

Sensory deprivation can offset the balance of audio versus visual information in multimodal processing. Such a phenomenon could persist for children born deaf, even after they receive cochlear implants (CIs), and could potentially explain why one modality is given priority over the other. Here, we recorded cortical responses to a single speaker uttering t ...

Motor Processing in Children With Cochlear Implants as Assessed by Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Author(s): Alemi R; Wolfe J; Neumann S; Manning J; Hanna L; Towler W; Wilson C; Bien A; Miller S; Schafer E; Gemignani J; Koirala N; Gracco VL; Deroche M;

Auditory-motor and visual-motor networks are often coupled in daily activities, such as when listening to music and dancing; but these networks are known to be highly malleable as a function of sensory input. Thus, congenital deafness may modify neural activities within the connections between th ...

Effects of cabergoline and dimethylcabergoline on the sexual behavior of male rats

Author(s): Pfaus JG; Antonie RA; Dosa PI; Kim SW;

Rationale: Cabergoline (CAB) is an ergot derivative typically prescribed for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia. It suppresses the release of prolactin through agonist actions on dopamine (DA) D2 receptors; however, it possesses binding affinity for other DA and 5-HT receptors. Side effects that exacerbate valvular heart disease can occur with high doses ...

Beliefs about losing control and other OCD-related cognitions: An experimental investigation

Author(s): Sandstrom A; Radomsky AS;

Background and objectives: Cognitive theories of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) suggest that dysfunctional beliefs influence symptoms. However, well-established belief domains do not fully explain OCD symptomatology, suggesting other cognitive mechanisms may be involved. An additional belief domain which may play a role in OCD is beliefs about losing ...

School Experiences and Anxiety Trajectories Among Youth with Intellectual Disabilities

Author(s): Dubé C; Morin AJS; Olivier E; Gilbert W; Tracey D; Craven RG; Maïano C;

This study investigated how the school experiences and personal characteristics of youth with Intellectual Disabilities (ID) contribute to their longitudinal trajectories of anxiety. To this end, we relied on a sample of 390 youth with mild (48.2%) to moderate (51.8%) levels of ID, aged from 11 to 22 (M = 15.70), and recruited in Canada (n = 140) and Aust ...

Agreement between youth and caregiver report of pain and functioning in pediatric sickle cell disease: PedsQL sickle cell disease module

Author(s): Alberts NM; Gilbert A; Kang G; Okhomina VI; Flynn JS; Hodges J; Hankins JS; Klosky JL;

Pain is a primary symptom of sickle cell disease (SCD) and is often severe and chronic. To treat SCD-related pain, proper assessment of SCD pain among youth, including the degree of concordance or agreement between youth and caregiver reports of pain, is essential but has not yet been adequately evaluated. In this study, 525 youth with SCD and their paren ...

Profiles of body image concerns and their associations with disordered eating behaviors

Author(s): Baker S; Maïano C; Houle S; Nadon L; Aimé A; Morin AJS;

Although body image concerns (BIC) are recognized as a core driver in the development of disordered eating behaviors, the combined role of various types of BIC remains underexamined. This study relied on Latent Profile Analysis to identify the main configurations of self-reported BIC (i.e., body checking and avoidance, perceived physical appearance, and f ...

Childhood hyperactivity, eating behaviours, and executive functions: Their association with the development of eating-disorder symptoms in adolescence

Author(s): Dufour R; Breton É; Morin AJS; Côté SM; Dubois L; Vitaro F; Boivin M; Tremblay RE; Booij L;

Background: Cross-sectional studies have shown that hyperactivity and impaired executive functioning are associated with symptoms of eating disorders in adolescence and adulthood. Whether hyperactivity and executive functions in early life can prospectively predict the emergence of eating disorde ...

Putting things right: An experimental investigation of memory biases related to symmetry, ordering and arranging behaviour

Author(s): Radomsky AS; Ouellet-Courtois C; Golden E; Senn JM; Parrish CL;

Background and objectives: Research indicates the presence of both explicit and implicit memory biases for threat. However, empirical support for the presence of memory biases related to symmetry, ordering and arranging is lacking, despite the fact that many individuals report anxiety associated with their personal belongings being out of place. The aim o ...
