An Electrophysiological Study of Attention Capture: Does Rarity Enable Capture?

Creator:: Noesen, Birken
Abstract:: Several behavioral studies have suggested that rarity is critical for enabling irrelevant, salient objects to capture attention. We tested this hypothesis using the event-related potential (ERP) component, N2pc, thought to reflect attentional allocation. A cue display was followed by a target display in which participants identified the letter in a...

Changes in body composition and metabolic syndrome risk factors : response to energy-restriction, protein intake, and high intensity interval training

Creator:: Pilolla, Kari D.
Abstract:: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and abdominal obesity (AbOb) increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Energy restriction (ER), highprotein (PRO) intake and high-intensity interval training (HIT) can independently improve MetS and AbOb. However, ER reduces metabolically active lean body mass (LBM) in addition to body fat (BF). Purpose: To...

Comparison of dietary energy density between active women with and without exercise-associated menstrual dysfunction (ExMD)

Creator:: Hand, Taryn M.
Abstract:: Research shows that Exercise-Associated Menstrual Dysfunction (ExMD) ranges from 6-79% of active women, depending on the sport. The primary contributor to ExMD is hypothesized to be low energy availability or relative energy deficiency in sport, due to insufficient energy intake to match exercise energy expenditure. Because many active women are...

Effects of Intranasal Oxytocin on Attachment in Pet Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris)

Creator:: Thielke, Lauren E.
Abstract:: The present study explored the effects of intranasal oxytocin (OT), a naturally occurring hormone, on the behavior of pet dogs in an attachment test. Each dog participated in two testing sessions. On one visit saline was administered nasally and on another OT was administered nasally. Condition order was counterbalanced. Following...

Central and Peripheral Nervous System Underpinnings of Moral Elevation

Creator:: Piper, Walter T.
Abstract:: The present study characterized physiological responsivity during moral elevation, or elevation, a prosocial emotional state triggered by witnessing displays of altruism and moral beauty. Participants watched video stimuli that induced elevation, or amusement as a control condition, while heart rate (HR), respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), skin conductance responses (SCR), and...

Label-free mass spectrometry-driven methods for elucidating adaptive responses of the hepatic mitochondrial proteome in an alcoholic fatty liver disease model

Creator:: Tzeng, Shin-Cheng
Abstract:: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) continues to be one of the major public health problems in the United States and worldwide. Complicated by factors including gender, polymorphisms of alcohol-metabolizing enzymes, immunologic factors, exposures to other substances/drugs, hepatic viral infections, nutritional deficiencies, and obesity, ALD is a complex disease that requires a...

The effects of enhanced expression of the GluN2B (NR2B) subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor on memory in aged animals

Creator:: Brim, Brenna L.
Abstract:: As the aging population continues to grow worldwide, age-related complications are becoming more apparent within the aging population. One of the first age-related complications to become apparent is age-associated memory impairment and it can make the elderly more dependent on caregivers early on. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is important to...

Influence of aging and behavioral experience on expression of GluN1 splice variants of the NMDA receptor in prefrontal cortex of mice brain

Creator:: Das, Siba Ranjan
Abstract:: As the aging population continues to grow the world over, age related complications become more and more apparent among the elderly population. One such complication is age associated memory impairment, which makes the elderly more dependent on caregivers early on. NMDA receptors in the brain are important for memory formation,...

Examining the effects of a community-based physical activity programon moderate to vigorous physical activity and skeletal health in growing girls

Creator:: Kasianchuk, Anastasia M.
Abstract:: Girls on the Run (GOTR) is a community-based running program that encourages social, mental, emotional and physical development in young girls through the process of training for a 5k running event. Previous reports have shown that GOTR has positive effects on self-esteem and dietary behaviors; whether GOTR influences levels of...

Spinal reflex control in healthy and ACL-injured women during a distracting task

Creator:: Perrier, Erica Taylor
Abstract:: Female athletes exhibit three- to six-fold greater incidence of noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury relative to their male counterparts. The increased risk appears to stem from interactions between several risk factors, that can roughly be categorized as anatomic, biomechanical, hormonal, and neuromuscular. Neuromuscular risk factors have recently gained a...
