One of the most effective treatments of anxiety is exposure therapy: a person is exposed to specific feared situations or objects that trigger anxiety. This exposure process may be done through actual exposure, with visualization, by imagination or using virtual reality (VR), that provides users with computer simulated environments with and within which they can interact. VR is made possible by th...<br/><br/>Alessandra Gorini, Giuseppe Riva (2008) <i>Expert Rev Neurother</i> <i></i> <i></i> 8: 2 215-233<br/>

The pathological eating behaviour of patients with anorexia nervosa reflects a deficit in planning real-life strategies that can be observed in an experimental setting through the Gambling Task, a tool designed to detect and measure decision-making abilities. We examined the role of Gambling Task performance as a predictor of treatment outcome in anorectic patients, and we evaluated changes in dec...<br/><br/>Paolo Cavedini, Claudia Zorzi, Tommaso Bassi, Alessandra Gorini, Clementina Baraldi, Alessandro Ubbiali, Laura Bellodi (2006) <i>Psychiatry Res</i> <i></i> <i></i> 145: 2-3 179-187<br/>

Current approaches to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have suggested that neurobiological abnormalities play a crucial role in the etiology and course of this psychiatric illness. In particular, a fronto-subcortical circuit, including the orbitofrontal cortex, basal ganglia and thalamus appears to be involved in the expression of OCD symptoms. Neuropsychological studies have also shown that pa...<br/><br/>Paolo Cavedini, Alessandra Gorini, Laura Bellodi (2006) <i>Neuropsychol Rev</i> <i></i> <i></i> 16: 1 3-15<br/>

Psychological studies of deductive reasoning have shown that subjects' performance is affected significantly by the content of the presented stimuli. Specifically, subjects find it easier to reason about contexts and situations with a social content. In the present study, the effect of content on brain activation was investigated with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while subjects wer...<br/><br/>Nicola Canessa, Alessandra Gorini, Stefano F Cappa, Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini, Massimo Danna, Ferruccio Fazio, Daniela Perani (2005) <i>Hum Brain Mapp</i> <i></i> <i></i> 26: 1 30-43<br/>

A positron emission tomography (PET) study was conducted to investigate the neurofunctional correlate of auditory within-modality and auditory-to-visual cross-modality stem completion priming. Compared to the auditory-to-auditory priming condition, cross-modality priming was associated with a significantly larger regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) decrease at the boundary between left inferior te...<br/><br/>G A Carlesimo, P Turriziani, E Paulesu, A Gorini, C Caltagirone, F Fazio, D Perani (2004) <i>Neuropsychologia</i> <i></i> <i></i> 42: 1 14-24<br/>
