A pilot randomized controlled trial with paroxetine for subthreshold PTSD in Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom era veterans.
(Psychiatry Res, 2013-04-30)
Subthreshold posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with increased risk
for suicidality, depression, and functional impairment. We thus conducted a small

Implementation and randomized controlled trial evaluation of universal postnatal nurse home visiting.
(Am J Public Health, 2014-02)
OBJECTIVES: We evaluated whether a brief, universal, postnatal nurse home-visiting
intervention can be implemented with high penetration and fidelity, prevent emergency
health care services, and promote positive parenting ...
Differential developmental trajectories of magnetic susceptibility in human brain gray and white matter over the lifespan.
(Hum Brain Mapp, 2014-06)
As indicated by several recent studies, magnetic susceptibility of the brain is influenced
mainly by myelin in the white matter and by iron deposits in the deep nuclei. Myelination
and iron deposition in the brain evolve ...
The normative and the personal life: individual differences in life scripts and life story events among USA and Danish undergraduates.
(Memory, 2009-01)
Life scripts are culturally shared expectations about the order and timing of life
events in a prototypical life course. American and Danish undergraduates produced
life story events and life scripts by listing the seven ...
Internal languages of retrieval: the bilingual encoding of memories for the personal past.
(Mem Cognit, 2000-06)
In contrast to most research on bilingual memory that focuses on how words in either
lexicon are mapped onto memory for objects and concepts, we focus on memory for events
in the personal past. Using a word-cue technique ...
Activation in mesolimbic and visuospatial neural circuits elicited by smoking cues: evidence from functional magnetic resonance imaging.
(Am J Psychiatry, 2002-06)
OBJECTIVE: The authors sought to increase understanding of the brain mechanisms involved
in cigarette addiction by identifying neural substrates modulated by visual smoking
cues in nicotine-deprived smokers. METHOD: Event-related ...
What Do North American Babies Hear? A large-scale cross-corpus analysis.
(Developmental science, 2019-01)
A range of demographic variables influences how much speech young children hear. However,
because studies have used vastly different sampling methods, quantitative comparison
of interlocking demographic effects has been ...
Differences in the cognitive skills of bonobos and chimpanzees.
(PLoS One, 2010-08-27)
While bonobos and chimpanzees are both genetically and behaviorally very similar,
they also differ in significant ways. Bonobos are more cautious and socially tolerant
while chimpanzees are more dependent on extractive foraging, ...
Effects of task instruction on autobiographical memory specificity in young and older adults.
(Memory, 2014)
Older adults tend to retrieve autobiographical information that is overly general
(i.e., not restricted to a single event, termed the overgenerality effect) relative
to young adults' specific memories. A vast majority of ...
Fear learning circuitry is biased toward generalization of fear associations in posttraumatic stress disorder.
(Transl Psychiatry, 2015-12-15)
Fear conditioning is an established model for investigating posttraumatic stress disorder
(PTSD). However, symptom triggers may vaguely resemble the initial traumatic event,
differing on a variety of sensory and affective ...
