Progress toward standardized diagnosis of vascular cognitive impairment: Guidelines from the Vascular Impairment of Cognition Classification Consensus Study KU Leuven Vrije Universiteit Brussel University of Antwerp
INTRODUCTION: Progress in understanding and management of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) has been hampered by lack of consensus on diagnosis, reflecting the use of multiple different assessment protocols. A large multinational group of clinicians and researchers participated in a two-phase Vascular Impairment of Cognition Classification Consensus Study (VICCCS) to agree on principles (VICCCS-1) and protocols (VICCCS-2) for diagnosis of VCI. ...
International Cognition and Cancer Task Force Recommendations for Neuroimaging Methods in the Study of Cognitive Impairment in Non-CNS Cancer Patients KU Leuven
Cancer- and treatment-related cognitive changes have been a focus of increasing research since the early 1980s, with meta-analyses demonstrating poorer performance in cancer patients in cognitive domains including executive functions, processing speed, and memory. To facilitate collaborative efforts, in 2011 the International Cognition and Cancer Task Force (ICCTF) published consensus recommendations for core neuropsychological tests for studies ...
Toward an Integrated Cognition Perspective on Ethnic Prejudice: An Investigation Into the Role of Intelligence and Need for Cognitive Closure Ghent University
Understanding others: a pilot investigation of cognitive and affective facets of social cognition in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS). KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Although significant impairments in the affective and cognitive facets of social cognition have been highlighted in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) in previous studies, these domains have never been investigated simultaneously within the same group of participants. Furthermore, despite theoretical evidence, associations between these two processes and schizotypal symptoms or social difficulties in this population ...
Children's advertising literacy: recognition and understanding of banners and the role of need for cognition and advertising literacy classes KU Leuven University of Antwerp Ghent University
© 2016, Uitgeverij Boom. All rights reserved. The aim of this study is to examine the online advertising literacy of children (10-12 years). By means of a survey administered to a total of 224 children, we investigate to what extent children are able to recognize a banner ad on a website and understand its persuasive, informational and selling intent. The banners are manipulated on two characteristics: congruence and complexity. Furthermore, the ...
Social cognition and underlying cognitive mechanisms in children with an extra X chromosome: a comparison with autism spectrum disorder KU Leuven
Individuals with an extra X chromosome are at increased risk for autism symptoms. This study is the first to assess theory of mind and facial affect labeling in children with an extra X chromosome. Forty-six children with an extra X chromosome (29 boys with Klinefelter syndrome and 17 girls with Trisomy X), 56 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and 88 non-clinical controls, aged 9-18 years, were included. Similar to children with ASD, ...
Music cognition and real-time listening: denotation, cue abstraction, route description and cognitive maps KU Leuven
This contribution is about music cognition in real-time listening. Starting from the distinction between knowledge-by-acquaintance as against conceptual knowledge, it argues for a definition of music listening as an ongoing process of sense-making that relies on epistemic interactions with the sounds. In order to provide a theoretical framework to assess this process of sense-making, it brings together conceptual and operational tools from the ...
