Subjects sedated by noradrenergic α2 agonists can switch rapidly from a state of extremely low to almost full consciousness following phasic increases in arousal or cognitive demand. Such flexibility is not displayed by traditional sedatives, such as the benzodiazepine diazepam. Experimentally, the phasic modulation of α2 effect by arousing or distracting stimuli can counteract the deleterious cognitive...
Changes in physiological arousal frequently accompany cognitive performance. Many studies sought to identify the neural correlates of heightened arousal as indexed by skin conductance responses (SCR). However, the observed regional activations may be confounded by task events. We addressed this issue by recording SCR in 25 adults performing a stop signal task (SST) during functional magnetic resonance...
