The study uses an ecological method for assessing real-life AF, extending the previous laboratory-based findings to real-life situations. The findings demonstrate the effects of sociality on real-life AF and elucidated the deficit in anticipating social pleasure among HSA individuals, which reflects liability to schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. Altered AF may be potential intervention target i...
The study revealed that parvalbumin interneurons in the primary somatosensory cortex preferentially encode pain intensity and drive nociceptive-evoked gamma oscillations.
The study suggests that both top-down semantic prediction and bottom-up integration during predictive processing are supported by flexible coupling of frontoparietal regions with control, memory, and sensory systems. This flexible connectivity of higher-order frontoparietal cortex with other brain systems contributes to our efficient language comprehension.
