Investigating executive functions as a target for psychological interventions in ADHD: : Exemplified through the use of Goal Management Training
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-02-02)Bakgrunn Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) er en hyppig forekommende, og ofte livslang, tilstand som kan føre til vansker på mange områder. De som er rammet vil ofte oppleve negative utfall knyttet til ... -
Music for autism: a protocol for an international randomized crossover trial on music therapy for children with autism
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The notion of a connection between autism and music is as old as the first reported cases of autism, and music has been used as a therapeutic tool for many decades. Music therapy holds promise as an intervention for ... -
Antidepressant mechanisms of ketamine: a review of actions with relevance to treatment-resistance and neuroprogression
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Concurrent with recent insights into the neuroprogressive nature of depression, ketamine shows promise in interfering with several neuroprogressive factors, and has been suggested to reverse neuropathological patterns seen ... -
Efficient Brain Age Prediction from 3D MRI Volumes Using 2D Projections
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Using 3D CNNs on high-resolution medical volumes is very computationally demanding, especially for large datasets like UK Biobank, which aims to scan 100,000 subjects. Here, we demonstrate that using 2D CNNs on a few 2D ... -
Long-term outcomes of an internet-delivered cognitive enhancement intervention targeting residual cognitive deficits after major depressive disorder: a 2-year follow-up of an open trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Cognitive deficits are common and disabling residual symptoms following major depressive disorder (MDD) and are related to increased risk of relapse. Residual cognitive deficits should thus be considered an ... -
GABA, glutamatergic dynamics and BOLD contrast assessed concurrently using functional MRS during a cognitive task
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A recurring issue in functional neuroimaging is how to link task-driven haemodynamic blood oxygen level dependent functional MRI (BOLD-fMRI) responses to underlying neurochemistry at the synaptic level. Glutamate and ... -
Towards a multilevel model of major depression: genes, immuno-metabolic function, and cortico-striatal signaling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Biological assay and imaging techniques have made visible a great deal of the machinery of mental illness. Over fifty years of investigation of mood disorders using these technologies has identified several biological ... -
Performance on the balloon analogue risk task and anticipatory response inhibition task is associated with severity of impulse control behaviours in people with Parkinson’s disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Dopamine agonist medication is one of the largest risk factors for development of problematic impulse control behaviours (ICBs) in people with Parkinson’s disease. The present study investigated the potential of dopamine ... -
Assessment of Self-Reported Executive Function in Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome Using a Machine-Learning Framework
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is characterized as a disorder of the gut–brain interaction (DGBI). Here, we explored the presence of problems related to executive function (EF) in patients with IBS and tested ... -
Social and non-social feedback stimuli lead to comparable levels of reward learning and reward responsiveness in an online probabilistic reward task
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Social stimuli seem to be processed more easily and efficiently than non-social stimuli. The current study tested whether social feedback stimuli improve reward learning in a probabilistic reward task (PRT), in which one ... -
Sensorimotor synchronization to music reduces pain
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-28)Pain-reducing effects of music listening are well-established, but the effects are small and their clinical relevance questionable. Recent theoretical advances, however, have proposed that synchronizing to music, such as ... -
Ghrelin is related to lower brain reward activation during touch
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The gut hormone ghrelin drives food motivation and increases food intake, but it is also involved in the anticipation of and response to rewards other than food. This pre-registered study investigated how naturally varying ... -
Disentangling dyslexia from typical L2-learning in emergent literacy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The present paper assessed how dyslexia can be identified in school children with another language than their first language. Participants were school children with Norwegian as their second language (L2), and two groups ... -
A 12-month randomised pilot trial of the Alzheimer’s and music therapy study: a feasibility assessment of music therapy and physical activity in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background The Alzheimer’s and Music Therapy (ALMUTH) study is the first randomised controlled trial (RCT) design with 12 months of active non-pharmacological therapy (NPT) implementing music therapy (MT) and physical ... -
Low Persistence of Inattention Symptoms From Childhood to Adolescence: A Population-Based Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective: To investigate the persistence of dimensional measures of inattention in a population-based, gender-balanced sample of adolescents with parent reports of inattention from childhood and self-reports of inattention ... -
Inhibitory control as possible risk and/or resilience factor for the development of trauma related symptoms–a study of the Utøya terror attack survivors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)PTSD symptomatology is known to be associated with executive dysfunction. Inhibitory control is a core component of executive functioning, and inhibitory skills are essential both for adequate functioning in everyday life ... -
Time of day dependent longitudinal changes in resting-state fMRI
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Longitudinal studies have become more common in the past years due to their superiority over cross-sectional samples. In light of the ongoing replication crisis, the factors that may introduce variability in resting-state ... -
Considerations on brain age predictions from repeatedly sampled data across time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction Brain age, the estimation of a person's age from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters, has been used as a general indicator of health. The marker requires however further validation for application in ... -
Similarities and differences between intermittent and continuous resting-state fMRI
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) block-design experiments typically include active ON-blocks with presentation of cognitive tasks which are contrasted with OFF- blocks with no tasks presented. ... -
Hungry for compliments? Ghrelin is not associated with neural responses to social rewards or their pleasantness
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The stomach-derived hormone ghrelin motivates food search and stimulates food consumption, with highest plasma concentrations before a meal and lowest shortly after. However, ghrelin also appears to affect the value of ...
