“…Our results show that infra-slow oscillations are common to mammalian retinas and that neurodegenerative conditions commonly associate with altered pattern of basal waves, which, given that many previous studies that propose poblational neuronal oscillations as biomarkers of brain functional integrity (Buzsáki and Christen, 2016;Chan et al, 2021) present them as promising indicators of retinal and systemic neurodegenerative dysfunctions.…”

Targeted electric signal use for disease diagnostics and treatment is emerging as a healthcare game-changer. Besides arrhythmias, treatment-resistant epilepsy and chronic pain, blindness, and perhaps soon vision loss, could be among the pathologies that benefit from bioelectronic medicine. The electroretinogram (ERG) technique has long demonstrated its role in diagnosing eye diseases and early stages of neurodegenerative diseases. Conspicuously, ERG applications are all based on light-induced responses. However, spontaneous, intrinsic activity also originates in retinal cells. It is a hallmark of degenerated retinas and its alterations accompany obesity and diabetes. To the extent that variables extracted from the resting activity of the retina measured by ERG allow the predictive diagnosis of risk factors for type 2 diabetes. Here, we provided a comparison of the baseline characteristics of intrinsic oscillatory activity recorded by ERGs in mice, rats, and humans, as well as in several rat strains, and explore whether zebrafish exhibit comparable activity. Their pattern was altered in neurodegenerative models including the cuprizone-induced demyelination model in mice as well as in the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS–/–) rats. We also discuss how the study of their properties may pave the way for future research directions and treatment approaches for retinopathies, among others.

“…Trial-to-trial variability, cited as another potential explanation for diagonal patterns (Vidaurre, Myers, Stokes, Nobre, & Woolrich, 2018), is also not expected to systematically vary between our conditions. On the other hand, sustained representations in temporal generalization analyses are thought to be reflective of conscious perception and recurrent processes (Dehaene, 2016). It has previously been suggested that faster stimulus presentation leads to more transient representations (Mohsenzadeh, Qin, Cichy, & Pantazis, 2018); however, the backward masking procedure used here disrupts the formation of a stable representation by entering the visual stream, and it is unclear whether different methods of preventing awareness would lead to the same results.…”

“…The term reward refers to "the satisfaction of a biological need, pleasure, or the acquisition of something of value, in whatever manner measurable" (Fuster, 2013, p. 112). Experiments on humans and animals have shown that evaluative cortico-basal ganglia circuits that connect mainly the striatum and the prefrontal cortex are involved in reward processing and reward-or reinforcement-based learning (Alexander et al, 1990;Graybiel et al, 1994;Graybiel, 1995;Jog et al, 1999;Barnes et al, 2005;Fareri & Delgado, 2013;Graybiel & Grafton, 2015;Graybiel, 2016;Haber, 2016). Investigations on human learning have shown that cortico-basal ganglia circuits are activated by both primary reinforcers (i.e., food) and secondary reinforcers (i.e., approval from others) (Haber, 2011;Fareri & Delgado, 2013;Daniel & Pollmann, 2014;Graybiel & Grafton, 2015; see also Skinner, 1953;Self-Determination Theory, Deci & Ryan, 1985;Ryan & Deci, 2000; see also Dörnyei & Csizér, 1998, with respect to L2 teaching/learning).…”

Sensory Chunking and the Like: Testing a Pedagogical Treatment Applied to the Strengthening of the Third-Person Singular-s

Research into foreign language acquisition reports that learners of English as a foreign language are inconsistent with the suppliance of verbal morphology and tend to omit morphemes such as the third-person singular -s even at advanced instructional stages. Researchers rely on Generative linguistics and models such as the Minimalist Programme (Chomsky, 2000, 2015/1995) and the Feature Assembly Hypothesis (Lardiere, 2005, 2007, 2009) to account for such variability. The present study attempted to increase the accuracy rates of the -s. The author designed a treatment (©2018, 2019, Verónica Mendoza Fernández) that centered around sensory chunking (teaching with chunked sentences). Sixty-four learners of English as a foreign language from three different rural schools of primary education in Northern Spain participated in a classroom experiment that followed a pretest-postest procedure. Participants from school 1 constituted the control group and participants from schools 2 and 3, the experimental groups. The results of a grammaticality judgement task indicated a statistically significant increase in the accuracy rates of the -s for one of the experimental groups and a trend towards significance for the other experimental group. The treatment could promote the learning of linguistic items contained within blocks of language, as well as the learning of such blocks, and thus foster language automatisation.
