Frontal-limbic white matter pathway associations with the serotonin transporter gene promoter region (5-HTTLPR) polymorphismJennifer Pacheco
Department of Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78712, USA
J Neurosci 29:6229-33. 2009..5-HTTLPR genotype and age appear to independently influence the WM microstructure of the UF. The observed reduction in FA values among low-expressing 5-HTTLPR allele carriers may contribute to biased regulation of emotional stimuli...
Memory monitoring performance and PFC activity are associated with 5-HTTLPR genotype in older adultsJennifer Pacheco
Department of Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin, 1 University Station, A8000, Austin, TX 78712, USA
Neuropsychologia 50:2257-70. 2012..These results provide preliminary evidence that the long-allele homozygous profile is cognitively beneficial to older adults, particularly for memory functioning...
Rule-based and information-integration category learning in normal agingW Todd Maddox
Department of Psychology, University of Texas, Austin 78712, United States
Neuropsychologia 48:2998-3008. 2010..Implications for independent vs. interactive category learning systems are discussed...
Normal aging and the dissociable prototype learning systemsBrian D Glass
Department of Psychology, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA
Psychol Aging 27:120-8. 2012..The results support an interactive memory systems approach and suggest that age-related declines in one memory system can lead to deficits in some tasks, but to enhanced performance in others...
White matter differences predict cognitive vulnerability to sleep deprivationMatthew Rocklage
Department of Psychology, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA
Sleep 32:1100-3. 2009..This study sets out to clarify whether similar microstructural differences in WM tracts predict a person's cognitive vulnerability to the effects of total sleep deprivation (TSD)...
