G protein-coupled estrogen receptor-1 enhances excitatory synaptic responses in the entorhinal cortex

Author(s): Batallán Burrowes AA; Sundarakrishnan A; Bouhour C; Chapman CA;

Activation of estrogen receptors is thought to modulate cognitive function in the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and striatum by affecting both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission. The entorhinal cortex is a major source of cortical sensory and associational input to the hippocampus, but it is unclear whether either estrogens or progestogens ...

Agency rescues competition for credit assignment among predictive cues from adverse learning conditions

Author(s): Kang M; Reverte I; Volz S; Kaufman K; Fevola S; Matarazzo A; Alhazmi FH; Marquez I; Iordanova MD; Esber GR;

A fundamental assumption of learning theories is that the credit assigned to predictive cues is not simply determined by their probability of reinforcement, but by their ability to compete with other cues present during learning. This assumption has guided behavioral and neural science research f ...

Having the Cake and Eating It Too: First-Order, Second-Order and Bifactor Representations of Work Engagement

Author(s): Salamon J; Tóth-Király I; Bõthe B; Nagy T; Orosz G;

Even though work engagement is a popular construct in organizational psychology, the question remains whether it is experienced as a global construct, or as its three components (vigor, dedication, absorption). The present study thus contributes to the ongoing scientific debate about the dimensionality of work engagement systematically compared one-factor ...

Can you mend a broken heart? Awakening conventional metaphors in the maze

Author(s): Pissani L; de Almeida RG;

Conventional metaphors such as broken heart are interpreted rather fast and efficiently. This is because they might be stored as lexicalized, noncompositional expressions. If so, they require sense retrieval rather than sense creation. But can their literal meanings be recovered or "awakened"? We examined whether the literal meaning of a conventional meta ...

Effects of Goal Appraisals and Goal Motivation on Dimensions of Identity Development: A Longitudinal Mixed Methods Analysis of European American Emerging Adults

Author(s): Mulvihill K; Hortop EG; Guilmette M; Barker ET; Putnick DL; Bornstein MH;

In the present study, we investigated the ways in which the ideographic goal descriptions and goal appraisals of European American high school seniors reflect potentials for intentional self-development during emerging adulthood (EA), a lifespan phase characterized by increasing levels of freedom and decreasing age-graded, socially sanctioned developmenta ...

Effects of snack intake during pregnancy and lactation on reproductive outcome in mild hyperglycemic rats

Author(s): Martins MG; Cruz AGD; Oliveira GP; Woodside B; Horta-Júnior JACE; Kiss ACI;

Metabolic disorders, like diabetes, as well as maternal diet, alter nutrient availability in utero, inducing adaptations in the offspring. Whether the effects of maternal hyperglycemia are modulated by diet, however, has yet to be explored. In the current study, we examined this issue by giving females rats, treated neonatally with STZ to induce mild hype ...

Indirect effects of HPA axis dysregulation in the association between peer victimization and depressed affect during early adolescence

Author(s): Adams RE; Santo JB; Bukowski WM;

Objective: Previous research has identified a link between peer victimization and depressive symptoms during adolescence. The goal of the current study is to examine the possible indirect effects of HPA axis dysregulation in the link between adolescent peer victimization and depressive symptoms. Method: A total of 113 boys (n = 61) and girls (n = 52) par ...

The effect of classroom aggression-related peer group norms on students' short-term trajectories of aggression

Author(s): Velásquez AM; Saldarriaga LM; Castellanos M; Bukowski WM;

Using a four-wave/seven-month longitudinal design with a sample of 1595 preadolescents (53% boys, 47% girls, Mage = 10.2 years) from 63 fourth-, fifth- and sixth- grade classrooms in nine mixed-sex schools in Bogotá, Colombia, we examined whether growth trajectories of measures of overt and relational aggression varied as a function of classroom norms for ...

A polygenic score for acute vaso-occlusive pain in pediatric sickle cell disease

Author(s): Rampersaud E; Kang G; Palmer LE; Rashkin SR; Wang S; Bi W; Alberts NM; Anghelescu D; Barton M; Birch K; Boulos N; Brandow AM; Brooke RJ; Chang TC; Chen W; Cheng Y; Ding J; Easton J; Hodges JR; Kanne CK; Levy S; Mulder H; Patel AP; Puri L ...

Individuals with monogenic disorders can experience variable phenotypes that are influenced by genetic variation. To investigate this in sickle cell disease (SCD), we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 722 individuals with hemoglobin HbSS or HbSß0-thalassemia from Baylor College of Medici ...

Development and Validation of a Multi-informant Measure of Social Behaviors for Youth with Intellectual Disabilities

Author(s): Olivier E; Morin AJS; Tracey D; Verma N; Dubé C; Gagnon C; Craven RG; Maïano C;

Youth with intellectual disability (ID) are at an increased risk of displaying fewer prosocial behaviors and more numerous aggressive behaviors in various environments. This study proposes a new multi-informant (youth, teachers, and parents) measure of social behaviors for youth with ID. The sample includes 348 youth with mild (51.41%) and moderate (48.59 ...

Ethnoracial Differences in Coercive Referral and Intervention Among Patients With First-Episode Psychosis

Author(s): Knight S; Jarvis GE; Ryder AG; Lashley M; Rousseau C;

Objective: Using a retrospective sample, the authors sought to determine whether Black patients with first-episode psychosis (FEP) in Canada were at a higher risk for coercive referral and coercive intervention than non-Black patients with FEP. Methods: Retrospective data from patients referred to an FEP program in 2008-2018 were collected via chart revi ...
