Human behavior depends on the ability to effectively introspect about our performance. For simple perceptual decisions, this introspective or metacognitive ability varies substantially across individuals and is correlated with the structure of focal areas in prefrontal cortex. This raises the possibility that the ability to introspect about different perceptual decisions might be mediated by a common cognitive process. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether inter-individual differences in metacognitive ability were correlated across two different perceptual tasks where individuals made judgments about different and unrelated visual stimulus properties. We found that inter-individual differences were strongly correlated between the two tasks for metacognitive ability but not objective performance. Such stability of an individual’s metacognitive ability across different perceptual tasks indicates a general mechanism supporting metacognition independent of the specific task. 相似文献

Evaluative conditioning (EC) refers to changes in the evaluation of a conditioned stimulus (CS) due to its repeated pairing with an unconditioned stimulus (US). One of the most debated topics in EC research is whether or not EC is dependent on contingency awareness. In this study, we go beyond this debate by examining whether contingency awareness mediates the impact of attentional resources and goal-directed attention on EC. Attentional resources were manipulated by presenting CSs and USs either within the same modality or in different modalities. Goal-directed attention was manipulated by asking participants to respond to the CSs or to the USs. Results indicate that the effect of goal-directed attention on EC is mediated by contingency awareness, whereas the effect of attentional resources on EC is not. 相似文献

Women are commonly offered testing in pregnancy to determine the health of their baby. An important component of informed
decision-making about prenatal testing is provision of relevant, accurate, meaningful information concerning the conditions
that are being tested for—many of which, such as Down syndrome, are associated with a varying degree of physical and intellectual
disability. A range of health professionals, including genetic counselors, may provide information and support throughout
the testing process, but available data suggest that discussion of disability is frequently absent or limited. To investigate
genetic counselors’ perceptions of this situation and identify potential barriers to discussion we facilitated interactive
workshops at the 2007 National Society of Genetic Counselors Annual Education Conference (NSGC) and the 2008 European Meeting
on Psychosocial Aspects of Genetics (EMPAG). Working groups identified relevant psychosocial issues and impediments to discussion
(NSGC) or used a two-part scenario to promote discussion (EMPAG) and reported findings in notes and a closing plenary discussion.
Inductive content analysis revealed that participants considered informed decision making to be a major reason for presenting
information about disabilities in prenatal genetic counseling and endorsed the value of including information about daily
life with Down syndrome and other disabilities. However, they identified three broad types of impediments to such discussion:
counseling issues concerning the most appropriate manner to discuss disability under the complex circumstances of prenatal
genetic counseling, less than optimal training and experience in addressing these issues, and perceived limitations in the
participants’ knowledge and understanding of life with disability. Our analysis of the responses from the workshop participants
and additional thoughts on these issues have led us to develop recommendations for further research, training and clinical
practice. 相似文献

The Dietary Intervention Study in Children (DISC), a 2-arm, multicenter intervention study, examined the efficacy and safety of a diet lower in total fat, saturated fatty acids, and cholesterol than the typical American child's diet. A total of 663 8- to 10-year-old children with elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were randomly assigned to either an intervention or a usual-care group. Intervention included group and individual counseling sessions to assist participants in adopting a dietary pattern containing 28% or less of calories from total fat (<8% as saturated fat, up to 9% as polyunsaturated fat, and 11% as monounsaturated fat) and dietary cholesterol intake of less than 75 mg/1,000 kcal. The dietary intervention reduced low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and 3-year results showed no adverse effects for children in the intervention group in terms of academic functioning, psychological symptoms, or family functioning. 相似文献
