Self-Regulation01:25

Self-Regulation

308
Self-regulation, also known as self-control, encompasses a range of cognitive and behavioral processes that allow individuals to adjust their internal states and outward actions to align with socially acceptable norms and long-term goals. It plays a fundamental role in adaptive functioning, from resisting impulsive behaviors to persisting through challenging tasks. While its benefits are widely recognized, self-regulation is not limitless. Muraven and Baumeister's theory posits that...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

45.0K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder01:30

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

1.2K
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Problematic Usage of the Internet (PUI) is frequently associated with impaired inhibitory control.
  • Previous research on brain activity in PUI during inhibitory tasks has yielded inconsistent findings.
  • A comprehensive synthesis is needed to identify consistent neural patterns.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantitatively synthesize whole-brain activation differences in individuals with PUI during inhibitory control tasks.
  • To identify common patterns of brain activity associated with inhibitory deficits in PUI.
  • To explore potential neurobiological underpinnings, including neurotransmitter associations.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search of PubMed and Web of Science databases.
  • Inclusion of cross-sectional studies comparing brain activation in PUI individuals and healthy controls during inhibitory control tasks.
  • Anatomical Likelihood Estimation (ALE) meta-analysis of peak activation coordinates from 23 eligible studies (548 PUI, 537 controls).

Main Results:

  • Spatial convergence of increased activation was identified in the left middle frontal gyrus and the right superior parietal lobule.
  • These regions are critical for executive control and top-down regulation.
  • Neurotransmitter enrichment analysis indicated a negative association with 5-HTT distribution, suggesting a role for serotonergic systems.

Conclusions:

  • A distinct neural pattern of increased activation in the left middle frontal gyrus and right superior parietal lobule is associated with PUI during inhibitory control.
  • These findings implicate executive control network alterations in PUI.
  • Further research is required to explore PUI subtypes, causality, and generalizability.
