Attention, working memory, and inhibitory control in aging: Comparing amateur singers, instrumentalists, and active controls

Author(s): Joyal M; Sicard A; Penhune V; Jackson PL; Tremblay P;

Despite the ubiquity of musical activities, little is known about the specificity of their association with executive functions. In this cross-sectional study, we examined this relationship as a function of age. Our main hypotheses were that executive functions would decline in older age, that this relationship would be reduced in singers and instrumental ...

Comparative Analysis of the Functions Work Groups and Informal Subgroups Carry out in Relation to their Members: The Essence, Conditions of Implementation, Effects, and Dysfunctions

Author(s): Sidorenkov AV; Borokhovski EF;

In this article, we attempt to integrate and further develop conceptual ideas about functions of small groups and the informal subgroups that arise within them in relation to their respective members, namely, the functions of: (1) creating possibilities for realizing individual goals and meeting individual needs; (2) providing protection from external and ...

Childhood hyperactivity, eating behaviours, and executive functions: Their association with the development of eating-disorder symptoms in adolescence

Author(s): Dufour R; Breton É; Morin AJS; Côté SM; Dubois L; Vitaro F; Boivin M; Tremblay RE; Booij L;

Background: Cross-sectional studies have shown that hyperactivity and impaired executive functioning are associated with symptoms of eating disorders in adolescence and adulthood. Whether hyperactivity and executive functions in early life can prospectively predict the emergence of eating disorde ...

Diagonalization of the finite Hilbert transform on two adjacent intervals: the Riemann-Hilbert approach

Author(s): Bertola M; Blackstone E; Katsevich A; Tovbis A;

In this paper we study the spectra of bounded self-adjoint linear operators that are related to finite Hilbert transforms H L : L 2 ( [ b L , 0 ] ) → L 2 ( [ 0 , b R ] ) and H R : L 2 ( [ 0 , b R ] ) → L 2 ( [ b L , 0 ] ) . These operators arise when one studies the interior problem of tomography. The diagonalization of H R , H L ha ...
