Induction of grapheme-color synesthesia-like effects in non-synesthetes via offline anodal tdcs over visual cortex in area v4
Brain Stimulation. 2023. Vol. 16. No. 1. P. 274.
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is widely used method of neuronal activity modulation by weak electric currents (1-2 mA). Majority of studies showed its effect on the motor cortex, however, less studies were performed on other brain structures, like the visual cortex.

It is generally accepted that the basis of social and legal stability in any society is a consensus on vir tue — the fundamental values of proper behavior, ways of maintaining and reproducing them. And, conversely, the destruction of this consensus is a sign of the loss of stability and divergence of positions of social ...

Hypergraphs provide a natural framework for representing neurophysiological interactions distributed across sets of sensors. A key methodological question is how hyperedges should be defined from frequency-resolved electroencephalography/magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG) data. We demonstrate a construction strategy in which hyperedges are obtained from canonical coherence (caCOH), an extension of coherence that estimates coupling between multidimensional signal spaces. To ...

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.

This study examines pre-service teachers' (PSTs) attitudes towards inclusive education in Germany and Russia and investigates how they relate to teacher training curricula and teacher educators' discourse. A mixed-methods design was used, including an online survey of PSTs (n = 460) with an open-ended question, curriculum review and exploratory interviews with university educators in both contexts. The ...

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 ...

Precarious manhood theory (PMT) explains men's compensatory responses to masculinity threats in domains such as affect, aggression, risk-taking, dominance, and social attitudes. While recent meta-analytic evidence suggests that masculinity threat has a small-to-medium average effect, recent preregistered replication work has failed to reproduce some influential masculinity-threat effects in a large representative sample, raising questions about ...

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. ...

This study examines how various team aspects influence their evaluation
of teamwork outcomes. The research was conducted on a targeted sample in Russian
organizations. Using structural equation modeling, three groups of factors were identified:
team aspects that affected cognitive evaluation, emotional evaluation of work, and satisfaction
with the work process (team reputation and commitment); team aspects that did not ...

This study investigated the causal role of the human frontopolar cortex (FPC) in managing counterfactual strategies during decision-making under uncertainty. Using a combination of cathodal high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) and computational modeling, we examined how cathodal stimulation, preliminarily simulated with SimNIBS, affects the retrieval of alternative strategies in the task that constantly provokes ...

Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on acquisition of novel vocabulary remain controversial, which could be related to specific neural mechanisms underpinning different language learning strategies. To comprehensively assess tDCS effects on fast mapping (FM) and explicit encoding (EE) of novel words, we modulated tDCS stimulation regime (anodal/cathodal/sham), stimulated hemisphere (left/right), site (Broca/Wernicke/their right-hemispheric ...

Grapheme-color synesthesia (GC-S) is a neurological condition in which the perception of a grapheme elicits the experience of color or even the visual representation of that grapheme as colored. Previous research using transcranial magnetic stimulation on GC-synesthetes demonstrated enhanced excitability of the visual cortex. Consequently, we hypothesized that using anodal "offline" transcranial direct current stimulation ...
