Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) of affect, cognition and behavior aims to provide a ‘window into person’s daily life’. But what should we look for through this window? In paper, compare statistical perspective, grounded in probability theory, with dynamic pattern complexity on two common phenomena EMA data: non-stationarity outlying values. From these are considered nuisances that be dealt with. contrast, may signal transitions from one another (e.g., transition neutral persistent sad mood), whereas values recovery perturbations stressful life events).

Selective engagement of long-latency reflexes in postural control through wobble board training

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(1)

Опубликована: Дек. 30, 2024

Long-latency reflexes (LLRs) are critical precursors to intricate postural coordination of muscular adaptations that sustain equilibrium following abrupt disturbances. Both disturbances and adaptive responses reflect excursions control from quiescent Gaussian stability under a narrow bell curve, beyond Gaussianity unfolding at many timescales. LLRs slow with age, accentuating the risk falls undermining dexterity, particularly in settings concurrent additional tasks. We investigated whether wobble board could cultivate engagement selectively healthy young participants executing suprapostural Trail Making Task (TMT). A additional-task demand constituted visual precision predominantly along anteroposterior (AP) axis mechanical instability mainly mediolateral (ML) axis. scrutinized planar center-of-pressure (CoP) trajectories quantify non-Gaussianity across various temporal scales. Wobble increased decreased compensatory adjustments (CPAs), indicated by peak CoP displacements over LLR-specific timescales (50-100 ms) progressively diminishing CPA-specific ([Formula: see text] ms). Engagement TMT did not show any noticeable influence on non-Gaussian sway patterns. Despite aligning unstable participants' ML axis, thus rendering posture more significantly AP reduced CPAs These findings offer initial mechanistic insights into how boards may bolster balance potentially reduce occurrence catalyzing selectively.

Ball Don't Lie: Commentary on Chemero (2024) and Wallot et al. (2024)

Topics in Cognitive Science, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Ноя. 8, 2024

The interaction-dominant approach to perception and action, originally formulated in the mid-1990s, has matured gained remarkable momentum as an entailment of dynamical hypotheses proposed at that time. This framework seeks explain fluid intricate interplay causality spanning entire organism by integrating high-dimensional details with low-dimensional constraints across various scales behavior. Both Chemero (2024) Wallot et al. have skillfully explored theoretical implications methodological challenges this perspective introduces. We echo Chemero's al.'s focus on multifractality, while also underscoring new efforts model synergetic relationships cascading dynamics inherent approach.

Entropy-Based Multifractal Testing of Heart Rate Variability during Cognitive-Autonomic Interplay

Entropy, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 25(9), С. 1364 - 1364

Опубликована: Сен. 21, 2023

Entropy-based and fractal-based metrics derived from heart rate variability (HRV) have enriched the way cardiovascular dynamics can be described in terms of complexity. The most commonly used multifractal testing, a method using q moments to explore range fractal scaling small-sized large-sized fluctuations, is based on detrended fluctuation analysis, which examines power–law relationship standard deviation with timescale measured signal. A more direct testing structure exists Shannon entropy bin (signal subparts) proportion. This work aims reanalyze HRV during cognitive tasks obtain new markers complexity provided by entropy-based spectra proposed Chhabra Jensen 1989.
