We are excited to announce a joint event to kick off this year's CIMCYC sessions: : AI, Mind and Brain & Time-resolved Neuroimaging (EEG +)
The book "Las Pérdidas y sus Duelos. New Perspectives in the Study, Evaluation and Intervention" was published by Editorial Pirámide. It was coordinated by Francisco Cruz Quintana and María Nieves Pérez Marfil, members of CIMCYC, and Manuel Fernández Alcántara, from the University of Alicante, with the participation of national and international authors of great relevance in the study of grief and loss processes.
In this talk, the Dr. Dezső Németh will present findings from four studies—on non-invasive brain stimulation, functional brain connectivity, lifespan development, local sleep, and mind-wandering—exploring the competitive interaction between perceptual statistical learning and prefrontal executive functions.
From the Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center of the University of Granada (UGR), a group of researchers from the Laboratory of Social & Gender Psychology and members of the Psychology of Social Problems Group, have carried out an investigation to analyze whether the feeling of online disinhibition is associated with greater activation of the mechanisms of moral disengagement and, consequently, with greater perpetration of direct cyberdating abuse perpetration towards the partner (e.g., sending sexually explicit photos of the partner without their consent through social networks), while examining the moderating role of participants' gender, their sexist attitudes, and their experiences of intimate partner cybervictimization.
The Master in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience presents a new edition of CIMCYC Talks, with the participation of Jed Elison, researcher at the University of Minnesota. The talk, entitled “Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience 2.0”, will explore the evolution of developmental cognitive neuroscience and new perspectives on child brain development.
Researchers from CIMCYC and UMIT Tyrol University studied how the heart responds to unpleasant sounds. In particular, they focused on a reaction called the cardiac defense response and attentional modulation. The results were published in the International Journal of Psychophysiology.
The Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center (CIMCYC) will receive High School IES Puerta del Mar's visit next Thursday, March 13. The main objective of the day will be to introduce the students to the world of psychology research and offer them a close view of the scientific work carried out in the center.
This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the reGENER@r program in 37 men convicted of crimes of gender violence. Variables such as emotional intelligence, emotional dependence, empathy, coping skills, gender role conflicts, sexist beliefs and justification of violence were evaluated.
A CIMCYC study, from the Cognitive Neuroscience group (HUM-379), studies how gestational age is related to the ability to shift attentional focus from one object to another during early childhood.
The Co-Grief team, belonging to the CTS-436 research group (Psychosocial and Transcultural Aspects of Health and Illness) of the CIMCYC (University of Granada), has published the article “Grief Responses During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Qualitative Study in Spain” in the journal Heliyon, in collaboration with the University of Alicante (UA).
