Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The hypothesis under investigation in this study in that early onset alcohol abuse is a factor underlying impulsive violence particularly amongst personality disordered offenders. The study has recorded forensic and substance abuse histories, psychometric information, Contingent Negative Variation (CNV) and performance on the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) in Personality Disordered patients in Broadmoor. Most prevalent diagnostic category is Anti-social personality disorder. CNV was first described by Grey Walter in 1964. Howard et al (1982), studying special hospital patients reported that, using a symmetrical avoidance paradigm, CNV differentiation was inversely related to psychometric Impulsivity. Previous study indicates that early onset alcohol and drug use is highly prevalent amongst high secure psychiatric patients in the England and Wales jurisdiction (Lumsden et al 2004). This potential risk factor may lead to reduced frontal lobe function. Multi-channel electrophysiological recording of the CNV were collected as a measure of frontal lobe (possibly anterior cingulate) function (Stephan et al 1995). Results are presented from the study relating electrophysiological function (CNV), neuropsychological function (IGT), psychometric/personality profiles (UPPS and IPDE) with behavioural measures (offending and substance use histories and ongoing behaviour in the hospital). Age of onset of alcohol abuse in combination with personality variables is a factor relating to offending and IGT performance.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The purposes of this study are to (1) evaluate la frequency and percentage of fourteen types of experiences; (2) measure the degree of emotional impact; and (3) relate each experience to demographic variables such as gender, age, marital status, birth order, religion and spirituality. To this end an online survey was designed to participants who were interested in topics such as “new age”, esotericism and a range of anomalous, spiritual and paranormal psychological experiences (N = 1733; 70% female, 30% males; median age = 31,31). Results show that the most frequent experiences were telepathy, premonitory dreams, sensations
of a presence, and déjà-vu. Results also show that the most disturbing experiences were related to feelings of possessions, negative hallucinations and spontaneous psychokinesis.

Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
An online survey was designed for people interested in themes such as new age, esotericism and sympathizers of a diversity of anomalous, religious and paranormal psychological experiences (N= 1733; 70% women and 30% men, age mean= 31,31). The purposes of this study were: (1) to evaluate frequency and percentage of fourteen dfferent kinds of experiences, (2) to measure the degree of their emotional impact, and (3) to relate each experience to demografic variables as gender, age, marital status, birth order, religion and spirituality. The most frequent experiences are telepathy, premonitory dreams, feeling a presence and déjà-vu. The most disturbing ones are possession, negative hallucination and spontaneous psychokinesis. Seeing auras, OBE and healing experiences related with both positive and negative emotions. Women tended to report more experiences when compared to men. A relationship between spirituality and frequency of experiences was observed, which could mean that these experiences reinforce spirituality. Online polls have advantages and disadvantages. They represent a fast, accessible and effective way to collect cases, but attract individuals with specifc interests.

Musical expertise and age modulate how we recognize emotions in music

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Listening to music is like going through a landscape that offers multiple views. How are the views on emotions
shaped by two experiential factors, musical expertise proper and age? Forty musicians and forty musically naive persons, in each group half young adults (18-30 years) and half middle-aged adults (40-60 years), listened to music excerpts validated to express happiness, sadness, peacefulness and fear. They rated how much each excerpt expressed these four emotions on 10-point intensity scales. Intended emotions were consistently perceived as more intense than the non-intended ones, but the pattern of judgements differed according to age and musical expertise. Middle age was associated with decreased responsiveness to sadness and fear, whereas responsiveness to happiness and peacefulness remained invariant since young adulthood. Years of musical training correlated with enhanced sensitivity to the intended emotions. Middle-
aged musicians, but not younger ones, were more accurate than musically naive listeners. These effects were independent of domain-general cognitive abilities and personality traits. Mechanisms supporting emotion recognition in music are robust, but also variable: they are shaped by age and musical expertise.

Ouch! Age-related changes in the recognition of emotional vocalizations
Publication year: 2013
URL:
http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayIssue?decade=2010&jid=INS&volumeId=19&issueId=S2&iid=8990712
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVE:
To examine how age shapes emotion recognition in nonverbal vocalizations, namely positive and negative ones. Age-related effects have been described for emotion recognition in faces, namely for negative emotions, but evidence for such effects in voice is scarce.
PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS:
Forty-three younger adults (M = 22 years) and 43 older ones (M = 61.4 years) provided multiple emotion ratings on vocalizations expressing four positive and four negative emotions: achievement/triumph, amusement, pleasure and relief; anger, disgust, fear and sadness. These stimuli were taken from a previously validated and published database. Control measures included hearing acuity, general cognitive status, cognitive control, verbal intelligence, working memory, current affect, emotion regulation, and personality.
RESULTS:
Older adults were less sensitive than younger ones to positive and negative emotions (lower ratings on the intended emotion scales and lower categorization accuracy). They also differed in the pattern of ratings on the non-intended emotion scales. The impact of age on emotion recognition was not mediated by differences in general cognitive abilities, emotion regulation, current affect, and personality traits. Lowlevel acoustic features of vocalizations predicted with similar strength subjective ratings in younger and older participants, but the emotionspecific pattern of predictors differed across groups.
CONCLUSIONS:
This study revealed age-related decrements in the recognition of nonverbal emotion vocalizations; these effects were not modulated by valence, nor explained by domain-general cognitive abilities or differences in affect and personality related variables. This suggests that age shapes emotion processing in nonverbal vocalizations, such as laughter or sighs, in a primary, non trivial manner.

Hair cortisol concentrations in relation to ill-being and well-being in healthy young and old females
Publication year: 2016
URL:
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167876016300204
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Hair cortisol concentration (HCC) provides a retrospective measure of long-term (i.e. over a period of months) cortisol secretion and has been shown to be elevated in relation to chronic stress conditions. However associations in healthy participants with subjective ill-being are less clear and associations with well-being have not been explored. The current study examined HCC in relation to independent comprehensive measures of ill-being (stress, depression, anxiety) and well-being (subjective happiness, life satisfaction, psychological well-being) in healthy young and old females (mean ± SD: 19.5 ± 2.2 years and 78.6 ± 6.7 years respectively, total N = 115). The data supported evidence of increased total cortisol secretion with increased age. No association between ill-being and HCC was found in either the young or older group of participants. A positive association between HCC and well-being was found in the older participant group which was independent of ill-being and potential confounds. These findings do not support associations between HCC and ill-being in healthy young or old females. However the results suggest that HCC is able to distinguish levels of well-being in healthy older females.

Rhythm perception in children: The roles of age, sex and prematurity
Publication year: 2015
Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
Rhythm and melody are at the basis of music organization. They enable acoustic patterns to be organized in highly structured auditory phrases that can effortlessly be perceived, recognized and comprehended in our mind/brain. Scientific evidence suggests that musical rhythm perception is a complex process that involves more than the auditory cortex, and raises the possibility that rhythm processing is part of a wider mechanism that may also be involved in language production and perception. As such, rhythm perception is more than a component of musicality, and the failure to perceive rhythm might be relevant in domains other than music. In order to better understand the development of rhythm perception, the present study examined agerelated changes in the perception of rhythm while exploring the impact of sex and prematurity. Musical excerpts varying in rhythm only (same note percussion phrases) or in melody and rhythm (rhythmic and rhythmicmelodic sets respectively) were presented to children aged 6 to 13 years (N = 177, of which 21 with gestational age less than 37 weeks; 103 female) and young adults aged 18/19 years (N = 29, 4 with < 37 weeks’ gestational age; 27 female). Participants listened to pairs of musical excerpts (20 stimuli pairs in each set), and indicated whether they sounded the same or different using a grid in a pencil-paper response. In each set, eight pairs were identical and twelve were different (the difference was always in rhythm). The pairs of rhythmic patterns were the same in both sets. The results revealed an age-related progression in accuracy that differed in rhythmic and rhythmic-melodic excerpts: there was a small advantage of rhythm-only pairs that reached adult-like level at 11
years, whereas performance gains in the rhythmic-melodic pairs continued till adulthood. There was no main effect of sex. Prematurity was associated with a performance disadvantage that appeared to decrease with age; however, the small number of subjects precludes drawing firm conclusions on the role of prematurity. We compare our results with findings from earlier studies and discuss how both contribute to elucidate rhythm perception and factors that impact on its development.

Title:
Antivax attitude in the general population along the autism-schizophrenia continuum and the impact of socio-demographic factors
Publication year: 2023

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Introduction:
One of the most important inventions in human history is vaccines. However, to date a consistent amount of people exhibit a hesitant approach toward them and mixed results have emerged in the attempt to characterize which factors may play a role in predicting such negative attitude. Here, we aimed at investigating how the individual scoring along the autism-schizophrenic continuum component and socio-cultural factors contribute toward vaccination attitudes in the general population.
Methods:
To test whether individual position along the autism-schizophrenic continuum could predict vaccine attitude, we used principal component analysis (PCA) to extract the component showing diametric loading between the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (SPQ) and Autistic Quotient (AQ) subscales. Then, we performed a series of multiple linear regression analyses to understand the relation between the ASD-SSD continuum component and Vax scores. We also included socio-demographic factors (i.e., gender, education level, and age) as predictors.
Results:
Multiple regression analysis revealed that the closer the individual lied on the positive schizotypal pole, the higher was their negative attitude toward vaccines. A diametric, more favorable disposition was found for individuals closer to the autistic end of the continuum. Furthermore, we reported that among the socio-cultural factors, only age can be considered a significant predictor of vaccination attitudes, with younger participants showing a more positive attitudes toward vaccination, while the level of education is an important protective factor in mitigating the negative impact that the proximity to the SSD pole and age play against vaccination disposition.
Discussion:
These findings are relevant to improve targeted public health interventions, highlighting the crucial role of demographic, psychological, and social correlates in predicting anti-vax beliefs, which have the devasting potential to increase the spread of infectious disease.
