Spatial suppression (SS) is a visual perceptual phenomenon that is manifest in a reduction of directional sensi-
tivity for drifting high-contrast gratings whose size exceeds the center of the visual field. Gratings moving at faster
velocities induce stronger SS. The neural processes that give rise to such size- and velocity-dependent reductions
in directional sensitivity are currently unknown, and the role of surround inhibition is unclear. In magneto-
encephalogram (MEG), large high-contrast drifting gratings induce a strong gamma response (GR), which also
attenuates with an increase in the gratings’ velocity. It has been suggested that the slope of this GR attenuation is
mediated by inhibitory interactions in the primary visual cortex. Herein, we investigate whether SS is related to
this inhibitory-based MEG measure. We evaluated SS and GR in two independent samples of participants: school-
age boys and adult women. The slope of GR attenuation predicted inter-individual differences in SS in both
samples. Test-retest reliability of the neuro-behavioral correlation was assessed in the adults, and was high be-
tween two sessions separated by several days or weeks. Neither frequencies nor absolute amplitudes of the GRs
correlated with SS, which highlights the functional relevance of velocity-related changes in GR magnitude caused
by augmentation of incoming input. Our findings provide evidence that links the psychophysical phenomenon of
SS to inhibitory-based neural responses in the human primary visual cortex. This supports the role of inhibitory
interactions as an important underlying mechanism for spatial suppression.

The current exploratory study aims to reveal identity gaps and interpersonal communication strategies used by Russians to overcome social identity crises. Based on previous research, we assume that many Russians who live both in Russia and abroad face ethnic and national identity threats and experience different social identity crises due to recent geopolitical events.

Musical training has a significant impact on brain organization, leading to functional and structural
adaptations that enhance auditory, visual, motor, and cognitive processes. This study investigates how
extensive musical training shapes functional brain connectivity by comparing professional musicians and
non-musicians. Using EEG phase-locking value (PLV) analysis, we examined neural synchronization across
alpha, beta, and gamma frequency ranges during music ...

Context and relevance. Early detection of anxiety and depression symptoms is a priority task for the child and adolescent mental health system. As Russian practice traditionally relies on separate instruments, assessing anxiety and depression in isolation, there is a need for integrated instruments. Objective.

Abstract
Context and relevance. In the context of accelerated urbanization and a growing disconnect from the natural
environment, there is increasing interest in biophilic attitudes — a system of stable views, beliefs, and
evaluations that reflect a person’s relationship with living nature and shape their psychological well-being and
environmentally responsible behavior. Existing tools for their measurement, such as the ...

Context and relevance. The influence of the environment on psychological well-being has been studied in a wide variety of contexts, including workplaces, schools, healthcare facilities, and digital spaces. However, the psychological well-being of university faculty, particularly in relation to their connection to the university environment in the wide sense, remains virtually unrepresented in psychological research. ...

Resistance to change remains central to psychoanalytic practice: Patients often maintain dysfunctional
beliefs and relational patterns even when they recognize their destructive nature. While psychoanalysis has
richly described resistance as a defense against painful affect and threats to internal object relations, the
process-level dynamics through which resistance persists over time have remained incompletely articulated.

Personality psychology owes much of its cumulative success to self- and informant-report
assessment. Report-based trait constructs are reliable, replicable, predictive, and useful for organising a
wide range of findings. This paper argues that their success should be understood not only
methodologically, but also theoretically. I propose the attributional model of personality reporting,
according to which self- and informant-reported traits are ...

Background:
Numerous studies have shown that indigenous populations experience poorer health outcomes compared to people with other backgrounds. However, the interpretation of these disparities remains challenging due to differences in living conditions and social environments, as well as by potential measurement-related biases. Little is known about whether the underlying mechanisms of mental health outcomes differ between ...

Cognitive distortions are routinely described in cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and rational-emotive behavior (REBT) therapies as “errors in logic” or “illogical thinking.” While this terminology is pedagogically convenient, it often obscures a crucial conceptual distinction between violations of logical inference and problems related to the justification, scope, or evaluative force of belief content. In this paper, we do not ...

Interpersonal synchrony is increasingly conceptualized not as a static marker of rapport but as a dynamic, context-sensitive process that fluctuates across interactional phases to serve distinct relational functions. This study examined whether movement synchrony—absolute, non-absolute, client-leading, and counsellor-leading—was associated with therapeutic alliance in naturally occurring counselling sessions. Twenty-seven video recordings were analysed using motion energy ...
