Robust inference and correlates from genetic associations with personality
Abstract Personality traits describe stable differences in how people think, feel and behave, and how they interact with and experience their social and physical environments1,2. Many questions remain unanswered about associations between DNA and personality traits, such as their robustness, their generalizability and the biological and social pathways through which they act.
Beyond composite scores in chronotype assessment: item-level predictive patterns in the Morningness–Eveningness Questionnaire
Abstract Chronotype represents individual differences in circadian preferences that influence sleep-wake patterns, cognitive performance, and clinical outcomes across the lifespan. Given its growing relevance for clinical research and application, efficient and reliable chronotype assessment is essential. However, widely used tools like the Morningness–Eveningness-Questionnaire (MEQ) rely on composite scores, despite methodological concerns about multidimensionality and unequal item contributions.
Aging on the road: neural and behavioral correlates of cognitive control during distracted driving
Abstract Objective: Aging increases crash risk through failures to prioritize safety-critical actions amid competing information. The neural basis of adaptive cognitive control under these demands remains insufficiently understood. Methods: This study examined age effects on braking prioritization in 44 drivers (23 younger, 21 older) using a car-following simulation with lane keeping, in which participants withheld sign responses whenever brake signals took priority.

The Interplay Between Multisensory Processing and Attention in Working Memory: Behavioral and Neural Indices of Audiovisual Object Storage
1 Introduction To navigate through a complex, multisensory environment, our senses need to interact with each other constantly. This applies not only to low-level perceptual mechanisms but also to higher-order cognitive functions such as working memory. However, current working memory research is strongly dominated by vision, and our understanding of how multisensory objects are encoded and maintained in working memory remains limited.
Resting-state EEG data before and after cognitive activity across the adult lifespan and a 5-year follow-up - Scientific Data
Abstract This dataset consists of 64-channels resting-state EEG recordings of 608 participants aged between 20 and 70 years, 61.8% female, as well as follow-up measurements after approximately 5 years of 208 participants, starting 2021. The EEG was measured for three minutes with eyes open and eyes closed before and after a 2-hour block of cognitive experimental tasks. The data set is part of the Dortmund Vital Study, a prospective study on the determinants of healthy cognitive aging.
EEG Correlates of Cognitive Dynamics in Task Resumption after Interruptions: The Impact of Available Time and Flexibility
Abstract Interruptions are a common aspect of everyday working life, negatively affecting both task performance and long-term psychological well-being. However, research suggests that the effects of interruptions can be mitigated in several ways, such as the opportunity to anticipate the interruptions and preparation time.
The Interplay Between Multisensory Processing and Attention in Working Memory: Behavioral and Neural Indices of Audio-Visual Object Storage
Abstract Although real-life events are multisensory, how audio-visual objects are stored in working memory is an open question. At a perceptual level, evidence shows that both top-down and bottom-up attentional processes can play a role in multisensory interactions.
