Menstrual cycle selectively elevates anticipatory effort cost without altering reward sensitivity in human motivation

This study shows that the mid-luteal phase of the menstrual cycle increases anticipated effort cost without changing reward sensitivity in women's motivation.

Delusions Emerge and Persist due to Generative Model Reorganisation: Insights from Hybrid Predictive Coding

This paper uses predictive coding to model delusions, showing that reorganisation of generative models under atypical conditions leads to persistent, impervious beliefs.

Behavioral and neuroimaging correlates of attentional biases to angry faces in individuals in remission from depression: a population-derived study

The paper investigates attentional biases to angry faces in individuals in remission from depression using functional MRI and drift diffusion modeling, finding persistent biases linked to brain activity in emotional regulation regions.

Prefrontal cortical connectivity mediates locus coeruleus noradrenergic regulation of inhibitory control in older adults

This study investigates how locus coeruleus noradrenergic integrity influences inhibitory control in older adults through prefrontal cortical connectivity.

Apathy is associated with reduced precision of prior beliefs about action outcomes

This study links apathy to reduced precision of prior beliefs about action outcomes using a Bayesian framework and a visuomotor task.

Sensory attenuation is related to dopamine dose in Parkinson’s disease

This study investigates how dopamine levels in Parkinson’s disease patients affect sensory attenuation during voluntary movements, finding a negative correlation with motor severity and a positive correlation with dopamine dose.

Motor learning decline with age is related to differences in the explicit memory system

The paper investigates age-related decline in motor adaptation, finding that explicit memory performance and associated brain regions become stronger predictors of motor learning in older adults.
