In recent years, a rapidly increasing collection of investigative methods in addition to changes in diagnostic criteria for dementia have followed "high-tech" trends in medicine, with the aim to better define the dementia syndrome and its biological...

Left amygdala and putamen activation modulate emotion driven decisions in the iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma game (2019)
Journal Article
Eimontaite, I., Schindler, I., De Marco, M., Duzzi, D., Venneri, A., & Goel, V. (2019). Left amygdala and putamen activation modulate emotion driven decisions in the iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma game. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 13(JUL), Article 741. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2019.00741

Although economic decision-making is commonly characterized as a purely rational phenomenon, it is clear that real-world decision-making is influenced by emotions. Yet, relatively little is known about the neural correlates of this process. To explor...

Structural and functional correlates of hypnotic depth and suggestibility (2014)
Journal Article
McGeown, W. J., Mazzoni, G., Vannucci, M., & Venneri, A. (2015). Structural and functional correlates of hypnotic depth and suggestibility. Neuroimaging. Psychiatry research, 231(2), 151-159. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pscychresns.2014.11.015

This study explores whether self-reported depth of hypnosis and hypnotic suggestibility are associated with individual differences in neuroanatomy and/or levels of functional connectivity. Twenty-nine people varying in suggestibility were recruited a... Read More about Structural and functional correlates of hypnotic depth and suggestibility.

Apolipoprotein E ε4 allele modulates the immediate impact of acute exercise on prefrontal function (2014)
Journal Article
De Marco, M., Clough, P. J., Dyer, C. E., Vince, R. V., Waby, J. S., Midgley, A. W., & Venneri, A. (2015). Apolipoprotein E ε4 allele modulates the immediate impact of acute exercise on prefrontal function. Behavior Genetics, 45(1), 106-116. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10519-014-9675-5

The difference between Apolipoprotein E ε4 carriers and non-carriers in response to single exercise sessions was tested. Stroop and Posner tasks were administered to young untrained women immediately after walking sessions or moderately heavy exercis...

Objective: A single case study with control and normative data of a 74-year-old retired businessman with amnestic mild cognitive impairment, who had spontaneous confabulations concerning fantastic exploits and magical powers as well as déjà vécu expe... Read More about Awareness and confabulation.

Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis (2012)
Journal Article
Mazzoni, G., Venneri, A., McGeown, W. J., & Kirsch, I. (2013). Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis. Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 49(2), 400-410. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2012.08.005

A controversy in the field of hypnosis has centered on the question of whether there is a uniquely hypnotic state of consciousness and, if so, whether it is causally related to responsiveness to suggestion. Evidence from brain imaging studies has bee... Read More about Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis.

Task- and response related dissociations between neglect in near and far space: A morphometric case study (2012)
Journal Article
Aimola, L., Schindler, I., & Venneri, A. (2012). Task- and response related dissociations between neglect in near and far space: A morphometric case study. Behavioural neurology, 27(3), 245-257. https://doi.org/10.3233/BEN-2012-110243

Introduction: Patients with unilateral neglect may show line bisection errors selectively in either near (within hand reaching) or far (beyond hand reaching) space which suggests that these two spatial areas are coded differently by the brain. This e... Read More about Task- and response related dissociations between neglect in near and far space: A morphometric case study.

Suggested visual hallucination without hypnosis enhances activity in visual areas of the brain (2012)
Journal Article

This functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study investigated high and low suggestible people responding to two visual hallucination suggestions with and without a hypnotic induction. Participants in the study were asked to see color while loo... Read More about Suggested visual hallucination without hypnosis enhances activity in visual areas of the brain.

Near and far space neglect: task sensitivity and anatomical substrates (2012)
Journal Article

Most group studies which have investigated neglect for near and far space have found an increased severity of symptoms in far space compared to near space. However, the majority of these studies used relatively small samples and based their findings... Read More about Near and far space neglect: task sensitivity and anatomical substrates.

Demographic and ethnicity effects on neuropsychological test performance : implications for dementia assessment in Caribbean populations (2010)
Thesis
Khan, K. L. Demographic and ethnicity effects on neuropsychological test performance : implications for dementia assessment in Caribbean populations. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217272

Prevalence rates of dementia are increasing worldwide and more so in developing countries. Early and accurate diagnosis of dementia then assumes critical importance. Cross-cultural neuropsychological assessment of dementia depends on the use of instr...
