Trait anxiety negatively modulates the coupling of motor event-related desynchronization and event-related synchronization by Chia-Hsiung Cheng, Pei-Ying S. Chan, Si-Yu Chen, Yu-Han Chen, Hsinjie Lu, Chia-Yih Liu

“…Abstract Background Recent neurophysiological studies showed that patients with psychiatric disorders demonstrated abnormalities in sensorimotor functions in addition to cognitive deficits. These findings intrigued us to investigate whether trait anxiety, a persistent inclination towards being anxious in multiple contexts, would affect motor cortical functions. …”

A reliable mixed-integer linear programming formulation for data-driven model predictive control in buildings by Peter Klanatsky, François Veynandt, Christian Heschl

“…To facilitate the implementation of a DMPC for such a combined control task, this paper presents in details a suitable optimisation algorithm: • specifically designed for buildings with TABS and shading systems, • based on a grey-box model of thermal zones (a reduced order state-space model), • using a reliable and efficient Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) formulation, • handling thermal comfort as constraints, avoiding weighting factors in the objective function.…”

Cumulative blood pressure load and cognitive decline in older adults: An observational analysis of two large cohorts by Ying Xu, G. Peggy McFall, Lina Rydén, Johan Skoog, Edward Chang, Lucette A. Cysique, Katie Harris, Sarah Kedwell, Mei Ling Lim, Kaarin J. Anstey, Craig S. Anderson, Roger A. Dixon, Ingmar Skoog, Phillip J. Tully, Ruth Peters

“…Introduction: Cumulative blood pressure metrics may provide greater precision for measuring temporal risk exposure, especially in later life where data are mixed regarding associations of high blood pressure (BP) on cognitive function. We examined the relationship between greater cumulative exposure to high BP in later life and several domains of cognitive function. …”

Sense of agency in gesture-based interactions: modulated by sensory modality but not feedback meaning by George Evangelou, Orestis Georgiou, Eddie Brown, James W. Moore

“…In addition, (sensory) feedback was also the same for each icon, arbitrarily different or carried semantic information.ResultsMid-air haptics increased agency compared to visual, and this did not vary as a function of feedback meaning. Agency was also associated with general measures of trust and usability.DiscussionOur findings demonstrate positive implications for mid-air haptics in automotive contexts and highlight the general importance of user agency.…”
