Data-driven neuroimaging reveals cognition-circuit pathology prior to diagnosis in psychotic disorders
… symptom severity and quality of life, impaired information processing speed (IPS) is the most profoundly affected and is present even before a diagnosis of a psychotic disorder. Although extensively studied, reliable and reproducible pathological neural circuitry leading to cognitive dysfunction …

The Relationships Among Age, Physical Activity, and Working Memory
… individuals engaged in cognitive measures of information processing speed, inhibitory function, and verbal and visuospatial working memory. Age differences in recall were found for verbal and visuospatial span tasks, as well as for recall reaction time on verbal and visuospatial n-back tasks, …

Impacts of prenatal phthalate and bisphenol exposure on infant cognition and early language development
… behavior outcome measures that pertain to information processing speed, attention, social cognition, and recognition memory. Chapter 5 examines associations between prenatal maternal urinary biomarkers of bisphenol and phthalate exposure and VRM paradigm outcome measures of infant …

Characterization of physical and cognitive function, physical activity, and sedentary behavior in older adults with multiple sclerosis
… and one measure of cognitive function (i.e., information processing speed) compared to healthy controls. ANCOVAs indicated that older adults with MS engaged in less moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (minutes/day) and more sedentary behavior (minutes/day) compared to healthy …

The Long Term (Five Year) Neuropsychological and Functional Outcomes of Primary Intracerebral Haemorrhage. A Population Based Study.
… was significantly correlated with deficits in information processing speed and greater overall cognitive impairment. In addition, deficits in information processing speed and executive functioning were associated with reduced HRQoL, and those with depressed mood were more likely to have …

Alternative Neuropsychological and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Measures in Multiple Sclerosis: Exploring the relation between brain lesion measured by diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging and interhemispheric communication and processing speed in multiple sclerosis
… is orthogonal to the previous two. With this information, the longitudinal and transverse diffusivity can be calculated. Longitudinal diffusivity is the diffusion eigenvalue along the principal direction, whereas the transverse diffusivity is the mean of the eigenvalues along the other two …

The effects of multiple sclerosis: Exploring executive dysfunction and its linkswith other cognitive impairment
… (WMS-III), executive functioning (D.KEFS), information processing speed and simple attentional processes. While the extent of impairment remained low on general ability measures, some impairment became evident in over half of the participants with MS on the memory measures. Five categories …

Impact of prenatal maternal stress on infant cognition and modifications of effects by exposure to phthalates
… reasoning, working memory, attention, and information processing speed. Chapter 3 presents a general profile of the Illinois Kids Development Study (IKIDS) cohort, within which this study took place. IKIDS is a large prospective cohort study of mothers and their infants that consists of …

Influence of Age and Cognitive Reserve on Cognitive Function in HIV-infected South African Adults
… of motor function, attention and working memory, information processing speed, language, memory, and executive function. They also provided 3T magnetic resonance imaging data. Bivariate correlations, independent-sample t-tests, and hierarchical regression models tested the prediction that age and …

Home-based exergames to improve cognitive function in Multiple Sclerosis: the EXTREMUS Study
… for the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT), the information processing speed assessment test that is part of BICAMS; the improvement observed between the EXERGAMES group and the SHAM group, did not reach statistical significance (p=0.06). TUG among the three groups showed statistically …
