Body image distortion reveals amygdala activation in patients with anorexia nervosa -- a functional magnetic resonance imaging study.

abstract：:We examined age effects on Movement related potentials (MRPs) in 13 young (mean age = 29.3 years) and 13 old (mean age = 67.2 years) normal adults in right, left and bimanual self-paced button press conditions. Both the groups generated a slowly rising readiness potential (RP) at about 1000 ms, a negative shift (NS') ...
