Primary objective:To determine the most important risk factors for falls in elderly people with mental retardation and to describe which of these factors may be modified by intervention/treatment, in order to prevent falls.Secondary objective:To…
The present study will focus on the consequences of long-term delay of puberty induced by treatment with Decapeptyl-CR. We will investigate the effects of this treatment in regard to brain functioning, brain development, various endocrine, metabolic…
1. Randomised controlled determination of the influence of foods on the behaviour of a heterogeneous not-selected group primary school children, during the first two months of the trial. 2. Determination of an IgG or IgE-mediated respons to foods,…
The first objective is measuring striatal D2 receptor binding before and after dopamine depletion with AMPT in the UHR population compared to healthy controls, and investigate whether dopaminergic dysregulation is present prior to transition to…
The main objective of this project is to study the relationship between dopaminergic mechanisms and apathy in dementia. The related question, both theoretically and of direct relevance for daily practice, is whether patients with dementia are…
In this study will be examined whether the polymorphisms of above mentioned genes are related to the occurrence and extent of psychiatric symptoms in patients suffering from carcinoid tumors. Since serotonin metabolism depends also on the tumor…
To investigate whether impairments of shifting between response sets underlie motor freezing in PD and to investigate the efficacy and the neural mechanism by which MPH improves gait and cognition in PD patients with FOG.
In this study we aim to assess dopamine synthesis in healthy subjects with isolated hallucinations using 18F-DOPA PET.
To assess the effects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in pregnant women with symptoms of anxiety or depression on the child*s behavioral/emotional problems. In addition, we aim to study its effects on the child*s development, maternal mental…
To investigate which genes are involved in the pathogenesis of obsessive compulsive disorders and associated disorders.
The present study will test 1) how the two versions of the dangerous world IT are related to attributional biases, i.e. hostile attributional bias and rejection attributional bias; 2) whether both versions of the dangerous world IT are related to…
The main objective of this study is to test 1) whether rejection in (forensic) psychiatric patients is related to aggression and/or withdrawn behaviour, and 2) Whether anxiety mediates the relation between rejection and withdrawn and aggressive…
The present study aims to investigate several cognitive and emotional factors associated with chronicity of alcohol dependence.
The aim of the project is to apply neuro-economics in order to elucidate mechanisms underlying disturbed social cognition in paranoid delusions at the level of the cognitive mechanisms. This will be done in patients with lifetime presence of non-…
In the current study we hope to find whether BIID is related to abnormal functioning of the sensory cortex, superior parietal lobule and insula. We also want to investigate if any problems with integration of sensory information also occur on the…
Our main objective is to assess whether structural and functional differences in the brain can be demonstrated between PTSD patients and controls during performance of an emotionally evoked task, in resting state and during a working memory task.…
Main objectives: (1) To identify genetic, environmental and clinical determinants of psychosis vulnerability and onset. (2) To assess neural systems and behavioural substrates mediating gene environment interactions. (3) To test for gene-…
Primary Objective: 1. Are the effects of conscious and unconscious priming effects on selfagency different in schizophrenia as compared to health?2. What are the functional and structural neural substrates underlying conscious and unconscious…
The aim of the present study is to establish intero-interoceptive fear conditioning in healthy participants in a differential conditioning paradigm. We want to make use of *real* interoceptive conditioned stimuli: a low respiratory load and small…
To investigate the effects of exposure to low intensity monochromatic blue light compared to the effects of standard light trherapy in the treatment of SAD and winterblues
