Abstract
Our results add to existing literature and illustrate the very nature of deficits of mentalizing, measured by a faux pas test, experienced by people with medial frontal lesions. The data have also prompted that future behavioral and neuroimaging studies may be applied to further decode both the neur...

Abstract
A tendency to angry rumination independently predicted AR stress-provoked ET-1 increase among patients with CHD. Given the involvement of ET-1 in plaque rupture, anger rumination tendency may identify vulnerability to anger-triggered acute coronary syndrome through prolongation of initial anger mobi...

Under conditions of load or reward and in the absence of either load...

Functional neuroimaging research has revealed a set of regions...

Abstract
We began the study with a theoretical comparison of the concepts of alexithymia and operative thought in terms of etiology as well as with a specific approach to comparing the concepts using the Rorschach Inkblot Method (Rorschach, 1921) with both Exner's (1986) Comprehensive System and the Parisian...

Abstract

The fundamental problem at that time in dental education was moving beyond a lecture-based and apprentice curriculum (students memorizin...

Abstract
We showed that the positive emotions of anticipatory enthusiasm, amusement, and attachment love tended to facilitate greater acceptance of weak persuasive messages (consistent with previous research), whereas the positive emotions of awe and nurturant love reduced persuasion by weak messages. In add...

Abstract
We often make decisions using past experiences, protocols and medical consultation to guide us through treatment "mazes." Using our natural problem-solving process, we tend to see a problem and think about similar past experiences, which we believe will help us implement a workable solution to the p...

Abstract
Episodic future thinking is a projection of the self into the future to mentally preexperience an event. Previous work has shown striking similarities between autobiographical memory and episodic future thinking in response to various experimental manipulations. This has nurtured the...

Abstract
The main learning needs of new-to-practice RNs identified by both preceptors and new-to-practice RNs centered on perceptions of uncertainty about technical aspects of nursing care. Lack of critical thinking and inability to think holistically contributed to increased stress. Preceptors who provided...

Abstract
Depressed patients have been found to generate fewer anticipated positive future events, but most previous studies have included patients who have either been severely depressed or expressed suicidal thoughts and intents or both.

Abstract
We examine the phenomenological qualities of mental time travel in highly schizotypal individuals. After recollecting past episodes (autobiographical memory) and imagining future events (episodic future thinking), those scoring highly on positive schizotypy reported a greater sense of 'autonoetic aw...
