Outcomes of such practices and variations between trauma registries leads to a lack of confidence regarding data accuracy and resulting analyses. Motor impairment and/or execution of complex behavioral sequences often accompany psychotic symptoms, as in the case of obsessive-compulsive disorders. Such an occurrence likely reflects the anatomical overlapping of brain areas serving both motor and […]

Study methods employed by each of the eight included studies varied with some studies utilizing medical chart reviews, while others utilized validated surveys and questionnaires to gather their data.

There is a need to understand the nature of social support that is associated with an increased risk of arrest in order to interrupt this cycle, either by encouraging social networks with positive outcomes or by disrupting cycles of arrests. In this study, Black race was not associated with incarceration, although it is well established […]

The overall case-control effect size that we observed, 0.62, was somewhat lower than that reported in meta-analyses . Since the patient sample was older than the control sample and age significantly affected P300, the patient control difference was attenuated somewhat by inclusion of age as a covariate. The effect size was almost certainly also lowered by […]

SWM task accuracy and reaction time were calculated for SWM and simple attention conditions. Group differences in neuropsychological test scores and SWM task performance were examined with one-way ANOVAs. We followed up significant ANOVAs with Tukey’s all pairwise t-tests between the three groups. Imaging data were processed and analyzed using the Analysis of Functional NeuroImages package […]

These areas are particularly important for adolescents’ processing of social information . The greater activation of these regions during the neurodevelopmental period of adolescence may be the result of substantive neurodevelopmental changes .

Analyses proceeded in three stages. First, at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months follow-up, the percent of participants at risk, and the identified preaction stage for those at risk, were determined for each HRB. Second, LCA was employed to discern the common patterns of HRBs at each time point. Third, LTA was used to […]
