Combining Performance-Based and Self-Reported Measures of Executive Functions: Are Both Meaningful in Predicting Study Success in Higher Education Students?

Manuhuwa, (Diane) (Phd); Fleer, (Joke) (Professor); Snel - de Boer, (Mirjam) (Onderzoeker); Graaf, (Jan Willem) de (Lector)

Abstract: Research in higher education has revealed a significant connection between executive functions (EFs) and study success. Previous investigations have typically assessed EFs using either neuropsychological tasks, which provide direct and objective measures of core EFs components such as inhibition, …

Emotional problems and academic performance

Wijbenga, Lisette; van der Velde, Jorien (Rehabilitation); Korevaar, E.L. (Rehabilitation); Reijneveld, S.A.; Hofstra, Jacomijn (Rehabilitation); de Winter, A.F.

Increasing mental health issues, such as emotional problems, pose a threat for the academic performance of undergraduate students. We propose a route connecting emotional problems and academic performance through executive functioning skills (EFS). Despite the abundance of research on the topic of EFS, …

The TNFR1 antagonist Atrosimab reduces neuronal loss, glial activation and memory deficits in an acute mouse model of neurodegeneration

Ortí-Casañ, N.; Boerema, A.S. (Lid Lectoraat); Köpke, K.; Ebskamp, A.; Keijser, J.; Zhang, Y.; Chen, T.; Dolga, A.M.; Broersen, K.; Fischer, R.; Pfizenmaier, K.; Kontermann, R.E.; Eisel, U.L.M.

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and its key role in modulating immune responses has been widely recognized as a therapeutic target for inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Even though inhibition of TNF-α is beneficial for the treatment of certain inflammatory diseases, total neutralization …

The roles of arithmetic fluency and executive functioning in mathematical problem-solving

J.M.M. Kaskens; S.L. Goei; J.E.H. van Luit; L. Verhoeven; E. Segers

This study is conducted to further understand the direct and indirect contributions of executive functioning (visuospatial updating, verbal updating, inhibition, shifting) and arithmetic fluency to mathematical problem-solving in 458 fourth-grade students. Arithmetic fluency along with visuospatial and …

Inter-individual variation in chlorpyrifos toxicokinetics characterized by physiologically based kinetic (PBK) and Monte Carlo simulation comparing human liver microsome and Supersome™ cytochromes P450 (CYP)-specific kinetic data as model input

Zhao, S.; Wesseling, S.; Rietjens, I.M.C.M.; Strikwold, M. (Lector)

The present study compares two approaches to evaluate the effects of inter-individual differences in the biotransformation of chlorpyrifos (CPF) on the sensitivity towards in vivo red blood cell (RBC) acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition and to calculate a chemical-specific adjustment factor (CSAF) …

GMP Compliant Synthesis of Canagliflozin, a Novel PET Tracer for the Sodium−Glucose Cotransporter 2

Heeres, André (Biobased Chemistry & Refinery); van der Hoek, Sjoukje; Antunes, Inês F.; Attia, Khaled A.; Jacquet, Olivier; Bulthuis, Marian; Zijlma, Rolf; Boersma, Hendrikus H.; van Goor, Harry; Visser, Ton J.; Heerspink, Hiddo J. L.; Elsinga, Philip H.; Stevens, Jasper

Inhibition of the sodium−glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) by canagliflozin in type 2 diabetes mellitus results in large between-patient variability in clinical response. To better understand this variability, the positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [18F]canagliflozin was developed via a Cu-mediated …

Comparison of the microbial communities in anaerobic digesters treating high alkalinity synthetic wastewater at atmospheric and high-pressure (11 bar)

Zhao, Jing; Li, Yu; Marandola, Clara; Krooneman, Janneke (Bioconversion And Fermentation Technology); Euverink, Gerrit Jan Willem

High-pressure anaerobic digestion is an appealing concept since it can upgrade biogas directly within the reactor. However, the decline of pH caused by the dissolution of CO2 is the main barrier that prevents a good operating high-pressure anaerobic digestion process. Therefore, in this study, a high-pressure …

Sitting duck or scaredy-cat

Nieuwenhuys, Arne; Weber, Jeroen; van der Hoeve, Roy; Oudejans, Raôul R.D.

Purpose: Law enforcement may require police officers to inhibit intuitive responses to high threat and thereby affect their emotional reaction and operational effectiveness. Upon this premise, the current study reports two experiments which compare the impact of two relevant shot execution strategies …
