CATs Tower of London test is a free, computer-based software test originally developed by Shallice (1982) to investigate problem solving in subjects with damage to the frontal lobes. The CATs Tower of London Test comes with one preprogrammed test along with extensive normative data for that test. You can also create a test using your design. Briefly, subjects are required to move colored beads from a window on the left (working area) until they achieve the arrangement in the window on the right (goal position). Subjects are instructed to try to achieve the goal arrangement in as few moves as possible. The software contains a Tower of London test. The test contains trials with 3 beads and 3 pegs, 4 beads and 4 pegs, and 5 beads and 5 pegs. You can use the Setup screen to create a test using your design. A test can contain 3, 4, and 5 bead problems with varying number of moves required for the optimal solution. In Shallice's initial investigation using the Tower of London, patients with damage to the left anterior frontal lobe demonstrated impaired planning (i.e., greater number of moves required for solution). Patients with damage to the right anterior, and left or right posterior areas of the frontal lobes were not impaired. Thus, results from this initial study provided support for the view that the left anterior frontal lobe area is involved in the planning required for solving the Tower of London test. Recent studies using neuroimaging techniques support this notion. Studies using regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) imaging indicate an involvement of the left frontal lobes in the planning required for successfully completing the Tower of London puzzle. Studies of patients with damage to the frontal lobes indicate less cortical specificity, but are consistent with the view that the frontal lobes are involved in the planning required for solving this puzzle.

The FANTOM consortium is an international collaborative research project initiated and organized by the RIKEN Omics Science Center. In earlier FANTOM efforts we cloned and annotated 103,000 full-length cDNAs from mouse and distributed them to researchers throughout the world. FANTOM1-3 focused on identifying the transcribed components of mammalian cells. This work improved estimates of the total number of genes and their alternative transcript isoforms in both human and mouse, expanded gene families, and revealed that a large fraction of the transcriptome is non-coding. In addition, with the development of Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) FANTOM3 could map a large fraction of transcription start sites and revise our models of promoter structure. This updated web resource provides the previous FANTOM results mapped to current genome builds and presents the results of FANTOM4. In FANTOM4 the focus has changed to understanding how these components work together in the context of a biological network. Using deepCAGE (deep sequencing with CAGE) we monitored the dynamics of transcription start site (TSS) usage during a time course of monocytic differentiation in the acute myeloid leukemia cell line THP-1. This allowed us to identify active promoters, monitor their relative expression and define relevant regions for carrying out transcription factor binding site predictions. Computational methods were then used to build a network model of gene expression in this leukemia and the transcription factors key to its regulation. This work gives the first picture of the wiring between genes involved in acute myeloid leukemia and provides a strategy for identifying key factors that determine cell fates. In addition to the network, FANTOM4 data was used in two additional analyses. The first identified a novel class of short RNAs associated with transcription start sites and the second focused on the role of repetitive element expression in the transcriptome.

https://neuropsychological-assessment-tests.com/sanzen-reaction-time-test
Reaction Time is free neuropsychological evaluation software designed to assess subject's speed of processing on three relatively simple tasks. Tasks include a simple reaction time test, a choice test, and a conditional choice test. Participants are shown a series of visual stimuli on a computer screen and asked to respond by pulling an appropriate trigger on a standard game pad. Both reaction time and the trigger pulled are recorded for subsequent analysis. Tasks to be used in the test, the average inter-stimulus interval and the number of stimuli presented for each task can be set by the investigator. The analysis includes means and standard deviations for response latencies for a single session, as well as the capability of evaluating a participant's performance on a particular session against their performance on a series of sessions. This test requires the use of a game pad that supports at least four buttons and provides a right and left trigger button. We have tested several different brands of inexpensive game pads and have found them acceptable; however we have standardized on Microsoft's SideWinder and have used it in collecting the normative data for this test.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. Visual span tests have been frequently used to assess non-verbal short-term memory. The free computer-based CATs Visual Span provides you with a flexible package for designing tests of visual spatial memory. You can create your own unique tests or variations on previously reported versions of the visual span test. For example in the Corsis Block-Tapping Test the examiner places nine blocks on a board and taps them in a designated sequence. The participant is required to repeat the sequence. Over trials the length of the sequence is increased (see Milner, 1971). The Knox Cube Imitation Test uses four blocks and essentially follows the same logic. The Wechsler Memory Scale - Revised includes a two part visual memory span test. In this test the examiner points at boxes on an eight box card in a prearranged sequence and the subject is required to repeat back the sequence. The initial trial starts with a sequence of two blocks and increases over trials. The two parts of this test are a forward visual span test and a reverse visual span test. Tests similar to these and more can be setup with the CATs Visual Span.

Preprocessed versions of the ADHD-200 Global Competition data including both preprocessed versions of structural and functional datasets previously made available by the ADHD-200 consortium, as well as initial standard subject-level analyses. The ADHD-200 Sample is pleased to announce the unrestricted public release of 776 resting-state fMRI and anatomical datasets aggregated across 8 independent imaging sites, 491 of which were obtained from typically developing individuals and 285 in children and adolescents with ADHD (ages: 7-21 years old). Accompanying phenotypic information includes: diagnostic status, dimensional ADHD symptom measures, age, sex, intelligence quotient (IQ) and lifetime medication status. Preliminary quality control assessments (usable vs. questionable) based upon visual timeseries inspection are included for all resting state fMRI scans. In accordance with HIPAA guidelines and 1000 Functional Connectomes Project protocols, all datasets are anonymous, with no protected health information included. They hope this release will open collaborative possibilities and contributions from researchers not traditionally addressing brain data so for those whose specialties lay outside of MRI and fMRI data processing, the competition is now one step easier to join. The preprocessed data is being made freely available through efforts of The Neuro Bureau as well as the ADHD-200 consortium. They ask that you acknowledge both of these organizations in any publications (conference, journal, etc.) that make use of this data. None of the preprocessing would be possible without the freely available imaging analysis packages, so please also acknowledge the relevant packages and resources as well as any other specific release related acknowledgements.
