Cognitive depletion or cognitive depression? On the role of affect in sustained cognitive control. Ghent University
Controlling our behavior is something we can only do for a limited time. E.g., when studying
multiple hours in preparation for an exam, studying typically becomes increasingly more difficult.
At first sight, it seems like controlling our behavior relies on a finite resource that becomes
exhausted with use – an idea that dominated cognitive psychology for the past two decades.
However, more recent studies have indicated ...
Mapping the interplay between cognitive biases and impaired reappraisal: An integrative approach towards understanding cognitive risk factors for depression. Ghent University
Depression is among the most debilitating of all mental disorders. Understanding its multifactorial nature presents one of the biggest challenges to improve the current treatments. Our project aims to advance this understanding by mapping the interplay among several key cognitive risk factors for depression. Under scrutiny are cognitive biases in attention, interpretation, and memory that result in the exaggerated processing of negative ...

The role of the frontal cortex in cognitive control: Toward an integration of cognivitive psychology and brain imagine / Intentional and cognitive control of action Ghent University
The aim of the project is to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying cognitive control processes. In particular we are interested in investigating voluntary aspects of cognitive control. A second research area is the role of verbal instructions for behavioural regulation. Finally, we will investigate the neural mechanisms underlying inhibitory control.
- The project investigates the neural basis of cognitive control and intentional ...
