The aim of the proposed research is to test, by the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging, the hypothesis that psychometric schizotypy (referring to, e.g., subclinical hallucinations in healthy people) is associated with reduced activation of…
The primary objective of this first study is to explore the short-range stability of cortico-cortical networks in healthy volunteers by measuring resting state EEG.
Investigate the effects of levocetirizine, diphenhydramine and placebo on cognitive and psychomotor functioning during controlled simulated diving in a recompression chamber in professional navy divers at 10 mt (2 bar) and 30 mt (4 bar).
Previous investigations in our lab have provided insight in the requirements for development of such a system and shown the feasibility of the paradigm (Blokland et al., 2011). We have been able to optimize the settings of our proposed system to…
Primary objective: To create diagnostic and treatment tools for navigation ability in stroke patients, that can be used in clinical practice.Secondary objective: To increase knowledge about the cognitive structure and neuroanatomical correlates of…
The primary aim of this study is to gain more insight on the impact of reconstructive surgery on circumcised women (type I, 2 & 3). This study may also used for theorizing about plastic surgery on women who are circumcised.
The primary objective of this study is to detect statistically significant differences between the most severely affected PD subtype and controls on 3T imaging parameters.
The primary aim of this study is to gain more insight on the impact of reconstructive surgery on circumcised women. This study may also used for theorizing about plastic surgery on women who are circumcised.
Primary objective: the primary goal is to investigate the effect of audiobooks on quality of life, general psychopathology, the experienced power of the voices and the burden of the voices.Secondary objective: the second goal is to determine whether…
The study can be divided in three parts1. A laboratory based experiment to addresses the accuracy of the Neural Network based method. A secondary objective is the minimization of activities needed to generate training data for the Neural Network.2.…
Testosterone, cortisol and estradiol are known to influence information transfer in the brain, the interrelationships between steroid hormones, brain communication and social aggression have never been studied directly.The present study aims to…
In this study we intend to give the label "deuterium" to individuals as heavy water, to determine the turnover parameters of diverse leukocyte populations in health (young adults, healthy seniors of 60 years and older, healthy individuals…
The goal of the current investigation is to test a new model that accounts better for results of pharmacological research. This model states that the cholinergic system underlies disengagement, and that the noradrenergic system underlies bias. Two…
The main objective is to describe the interactions between physical sensory stimulations and high-level prior assumptions that give rise to visual perception. In our secondary objective, we will advance novel model-based neuroimaging methods by…
To evaluate the effects of tDCS on modulating and stydying frontal brain asymmetry.
Objective of this study is to determine the turnover of leukocyte populations in health (young, old) and how this compares to situations in which the immune system is disturbed ((HIV-1 infection, HSCT, thymectomy).
The primary objective of the proposed study is to gain insight in the underlying neural mechanisms by which frontal cortical activation patterns are established, and its implications for human aggressive behaviour. The proposed approach aims to…
GoalThis research project aims to we examine possible reduced processing capacity in people with aphasia. We will investigate whether complexity of word forms, as calculated by information theoretical measures, can provide an explanation for the…
The aim of this study is to identify predictive factors for the outcome of gastro-esophageal reflux disease after gastric banding. Another aim is to identify predictive factors for the development of dysphagia.
This proposal centers on hormone-behavior dynamics in paternal caregiving, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the development of human paternal caregiving. There is limited information on the hormonal basis of caregiving patterns in…
