La noción de "grupo de tareas" y su pertinencia en el estudio de la represión clandestina en Argentina (1975-1983), a partir de una revisión de la literatura sobre paramilitarismo... by Mario Ranalletti

“…These units were created especially to be in charge of the clandestine repression, or else they were exempted from their usual functions in order to join in this repression. Based on this information (mixed composition and ad hoc creation or designation to carry out clandestine repression), this article proposes a generic and different terminology to name the units that the literature on the Argentine case designates as "task forces", "paramilitary groups" or "death squads": "special joint units". …”

Timing-specific effects of single-session M1 anodal tDCS on motor sequence retention in healthy older adults by Rohan Puri, Mark R. Hinder, Melanie Krüger, Jeffery J. Summers

“…Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may assist in counteracting age-related decline in cognitive and motor functions. The current study investigated the potential impact of anodal tDCS, and the timing of its application, in mitigating age-related deficits in motor sequence learning.Forty-eight healthy older adults received, over the primary motor cortex (M1), tDCS – anodal and sham at least 1 week apart – before, during or after an explicit sequence-learning task with electrophysiological measures of corticospinal excitability (CSE) and short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) also obtained.Bayesian analyses revealed no generalised benefit of anodal tDCS to motor acquisition and immediate retention. …”

Sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback training and auditory perception by Stanković Ivana, Ilić Nela V., Ilić Tihomir V., Jeličić Ljiljana, Sovilj Mirjana, Martić Vesna, Punišić Silvana, Stokić Miodrag

“…The ability of a person to concentrate on certain sounds in a noisy background environment, perform selective attention, and focus their auditory attention is crucial for everyday functioning and communication. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) (12–15 Hz) neurofeedback (NFB) training to improve auditory cognition measured by the achievements in the Quick speech-in-noise (QuickSIN) test, changes in the amplitudes and latencies of components of auditory evoked potentials (AEP) N100, N200, and P300 in the auditory oddball discrimination task, and changes in the spectral power of the SMR. …”
