Discover the world's scientific knowledge

I'm a bit reluctant to toss this out there, but I could really use some insight. I have researched and found both quantitative and qualitative studies to support chemical and physical changes (increase in oxytocin, brain structural changes viewed by MRIs, for example) in both animals and humans during animal-assisted therapy and training, but I have yet to find any research that supports a possible relationship between HAB/AAT and cognition and memory.

My ultimate goal is to discover whether use of the HAB and AAT can positively increase brain plasticity, and use this form of teaching for elderly, and those who may have suffered brain injuries, to increase memory capabilities. I've included some of the references I've gathered, so far.

Insight, anyone? Thoughts?

I have been focusing my research on LTP mainly which is under the synaptic-based theory. How this synaptic theory is related to the one in neurochemical-based theory? What if one of the mechanisms doesn't exist?

Thank you!

I am quantifying the cellular density of the dorsal cortex of double-transgenic mice for Alzheimer's disease. I'd like to quantify a region within the dorsal cortex most closely related to learning and memory. Articles would be helpful.

Thank you!

I know this is a fairly basic question but I'm having some difficulty finding anything out there - does the emotion of the perceiver influence how neutral faces are encoded / recognized?

The project includes assessment of a wide range of executive functions using a mix of pencil-and-paper and computerized tasks (e.g., DKEFs, CPT-II, Iowa Gambling Task) and I am looking for a computer-administered working memory (perhaps n-back) task to complete the battery.

My research is on Zimbabwe's 1980s genocide and how it is remembered today. Very little has been written on this subject yet it continues to be a strategic point of electioneering. The research tries to document the causes, effects and questions/investigates legal implications of the genocide. I am also contesting public memory as archive.

Standardized questionnaire or established paradigm is needed to plan a research work for postgraduate students

Research suggests that both working memory capacity and language analytic ability explain individual differences in L2 learners' production of modified output. However, it is not clear which one has a greater effect size in explaining variations in producing modified output? I was just wondering if any colleagues could kindly advise me in this regard in case he/she has conducted a research on this?

Hello everyone,

I would like to synthesis a shape memory polymer or is there any commercial version that I can buy it directly because I need it for my medical devices research ?
