  • Decision Neuroscience

    • 2 Edición
    • Jean-Claude Dreher
    • Inglés
    Decision Neuroscience: An Integrative Perspective presents the most recent and compelling lesional, neuroimaging, electrophysiological... and computational studies, in combination with hormonal and genetic studies, which have led to a clearer understanding of the neural mechanisms behind reward and decision making. The neural bases of reward and decision-making processes are of critical interest to scientists because of the fundamental role that reward plays in a number of behavioral processes (such as motivation learning, and cognition), and because the neural bases have theoretical and clinical implications for understanding dysfunctions of the dopaminergic system in several neurological and psychiatric disorders. This book will constitute a comprehensive update of ground-breaking work addressing fundamental questions about the nature of behavior: how does the brain process reward and how does it make decisions when facing multiple options? And will feature entirely new content, as well as expanded coverage on drug and behavioral addiction, the role of subthalamus stimulation in neurological disorders and neuroeconomics.

  • Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy

    • 2 Edición
    • David Reitman + 1 más
    • Inglés
    The Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy, Second Edition, Three Volume Set covers the major psychotherapies currently in practice as well as the classical approaches that laid the foundation for the various contemporary treatment approaches. In addition, the encyclopaedia identifies the scientific studies conducted on the efficacy of the therapies and review the theoretical basis of each therapy.The new edition has been thoroughly updated from the first edition, focusing on major modes of psychotherapy practice and core psychotherapy processes. Outdated entries have been culled or combined with other entries in a manner that better communicates the content to present-day readers (e.g., “water-misting therapy” can be addressed in a more cohesive entry covering the use of punishment techniques more generally).

  • The Handbook of Autobiographical Memory

    From Basic to Applied Perspectives
    • 1 Edición
    • Mohamad El Haj + 2 más
    • Inglés
    The Handbook of Autobiographical Memory: From Basic to Applied Perspectives offers a comprehensive view on autobiographical memory from a multidisciplinary approach. The book explores contemporary advances in understanding both cognitive and neural processes, including historical contexts on autobiographical memory theory and assessment. The book further synthesizes insights from cognitive, developmental, and social aspects of autobiographical functioning while also covering departures from norms in terms of autobiographical memory dysfunction. A section on applications equips readers with essential information regarding the assessment and detection of autobiographical memory dysfunction in neurological and psychiatric populations. How such processes evolve over the lifespan, and how deviations from healthy memory function can be supported through novel rehabilitation practices are also covered.

    • Inglés
    Neuromorphic Computing for Brain Computer Interfaces: Enhanced Synergies in Mind and Machine examines practical situations where interpretability is crucial, going beyond theoretical considerations and providing case studies and examples to illustrate how Brain Computer Interfaces could be implemented in the real world. The book encompasses novel concepts, cutting-edge research, frameworks, and tools that facilitate comprehension of neuromorphic computing models. It is an ideal, comprehensive reference for professionals, researchers, and students who want to grasp the fundamental concepts and most recent developments in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neuromorphic computing.

  • MRI of Brain Physiology

    Novel Methods and Clinical Applications
    • 1 Edición
    • Audrey P. Fan + 1 más
    • Inglés
    MRI of Brain Physiology: Novel MRI Methods and Clinical Applications delves into the intricate world of brain physiology, focusing on the latest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods and their clinical applications. Designed for biomedical engineers, technologists, radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and clinical researchers, this resource bridges the gap between advanced imaging techniques and practical clinical use. It covers a wide spectrum of cerebral physiology, from microvascular and macrovascular dynamics to cerebrovascular reserve, neurovascular coupling, and cerebrospinal fluid pathways.
