sexual behaviours. However, little is known about its association with sexually transmitted
diseases (STDs). To evaluate this public health ...
The variety of ecstasy/MDMA users: results from the National Epidemiologic Survey on alcohol and related conditions.
(The American journal on addictions, 2009-11)

Resolving response, decision, and strategic control: evidence for a functional topography in dorsomedial prefrontal cortex.
(J Neurosci, 2009-10-21)
The dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) plays a central role in aspects of cognitive
control and decision making. Here, we provide evidence for an anterior-to-posterior
topography within the DMPFC using tasks that evoke ...
A comparison of dimensional models of emotion: evidence from emotions, prototypical events, autobiographical memories, and words.
(Memory, 2009-11)
The intensity and valence of 30 emotion terms, 30 events typical of those emotions,
and 30 autobiographical memories cued by those emotions were each rated by different
