The neuroimaging basis of apathy: Empirical findings and conceptual challenges.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Evidence for working memory (WM) deficits in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is increasing. However, findings regarding the underlying neural substrates are heterogeneous. Moreover, the influence of cognitive demand on the severity of these deficits and associated activation alterations is a matter of de...

abstract：:Smooth pursuit eye movements (SP) are driven by moving objects. The pursuit system processes the visual input signals and transforms this information into an oculomotor output signal. Despite the object's movement on the retina and the eyes' movement in the head, we are able to locate the object in space implying coor...
