Effects of Facial Symmetry and Gaze Direction on Perception of Social Attributes: A Study in Experimental Art History
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)This article explores the possibility of testing hypotheses about art production in the past by collecting data in the present. We call this enterprise “experimental art history”. Why did medieval artists prefer to paint ... -
Glutamatergic modulation of auditory cortex connectivity with attentional brain networks in unpredictable perceptual environment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In a stable environment the brain can minimize processing required for sensory input by forming a predictive model of the surrounding world and suppressing neural response to predicted stimuli. Unpredicted stimuli lead to ... -
A longitudinal 5-year follow-up study of cognitive function after first episode major depressive disorder: Exploring state, scar and trait effects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Major depression (MDD) is associated with cognitive deficits in processing speed and executive function (EF) following first episode (FE). It is unclear whether deficits are state or trait related. Studies following FE MDD ... -
Brain age prediction reveals aberrant brain white matter in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder: A multi-sample diffusion tensor imaging study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD) share substantial neurodevelopmental components affecting brain maturation and architecture. This necessitates a dynamic lifespan perspective in which brain aberrations ... -
Current Challenges in Translational and Clinical fMRI and Future Directions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Translational neuroscience is an important field that brings together clinical praxis with neuroscience methods. In this review article, the focus will be on functional neuroimaging (fMRI) and its applicability in clinical ... -
The association of PTSD symptom severity with amygdala nuclei volumes in traumatized youths
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The amygdala is a core component in neurobiological models of stress and stress-related pathologies, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). While numerous studies have reported increased amygdala activity following ... -
Mapping psychotic-like experiences: Results from an online survey
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-02)Suggestions have been made that psychotic‐like experiences (PLEs), such as hallucinatory and delusional experiences, exist on a continuum from healthy individuals to patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. We used the ... -
Idiographic analyses of motivation and related processes in participants with schizophrenia following a therapeutic intervention for negative symptoms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09)Background Motivational negative symptoms hinder quality of life and daily functioning of individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. A recently developed intervention, Switch, has shown promising effects on negative ... -
Psychometric investigation of the French version of the Aberrant Salience Inventory (ASI): Differentiating patients with psychosis, patients with other psychiatric diagnoses and non-clinical participants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10)During the prodromal phase of psychosis, individuals may experience an aberrant attribution of salience to irrelevant stimuli. The concept of aberrant salience has been hypothesized to be a central mechanism in the emergence ... -
Associations between lesion size, lesion location and aphasia in acute stroke
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: The localization and organization of language has been an ongoing research interest ever since the early findings of Paul Broca. The emergence of neuroimaging the past 20 years has given us new insights on the ... -
Hallucinations in older adults: A practical review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)By 2050, it is estimated that 16% of people will be aged above 65 years, compared with 9% in 2019.1 Population aging is driving increased attention to the physical and mental health needs of older adults. Here, our focus ... -
tDCS as treatment in neuro-psychiatric disorders : The underlying neuronal mechanisms of tDCS treatment of auditory verbal hallucinations
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-02-04)Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation which has gained widespread interest in neurology and psychology, both as a clinical and research tool. While it has been explored ... -
Cognitive change in psychosis
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-10-23)Background: Cognitive functioning is impaired in schizophrenia spectrum disorders, with cognitive symptoms a core part of schizophrenia. Cognitive impairment is associated with poorer daily life functioning and prognosis, ... -
Cognitive profile in ultra high risk for psychosis and schizophrenia: A comparison using coordinated norms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-10-01)Background: Cognitive impairment is not only a core aspect of schizophrenia but also commonly observed in help-seeking youth at ultra high risk for psychosis (UHR), with potential implications for prognosis and individualized ... -
Compensatory task-specific hypersensitivity in bilateral planum temporale and right superior temporal gyrus during auditory rhythm and omission processing in Parkinson's disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Persons with Parkinson’s disease have general timing deficits and have difficulties in rhythm discrimination tasks. The basal ganglia, a crucial part of Parkinson’s disease pathology, is believed to play an important role ... -
Longitudinal stability of the brain functional connectome is associated with episodic memory performance in aging
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The brain functional connectome forms a relatively stable and idiosyncratic backbone that can be used for identification or “fingerprinting” of individuals with a high level of accuracy. While previous cross‐sectional ... -
Individual Versus Small Group Treatment of Morphological Errors for Children With Developmental Language Disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Purpose: This study examines the effects of enhanced conversational recast for treating morphological errors in preschoolers with developmental language disorder. The study assesses the effectiveness of this treatment in ... -
Physical exercise improves quality of life, depressive symptoms, and cognition across chronic brain disorders: a transdiagnostic systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We performed a meta-analysis to synthesize evidence on the efficacy and safety of physical exercise as an add-on therapeutic intervention for quality of life (QoL), depressive symptoms and cognition across six chronic brain ... -
Potential applications of digital technology in assessment, treatment, and self-help for hallucinations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The field of digital mental health is rapidly expanding with digital tools being used in assessment, intervention, and supporting self-help. The application of digital mental health to hallucinations is, however, at a very ... -
