DOI: 10.1007/s12671-020-01329-2
Abstract: Objectives Many cognitive changes occur in later life, including declines in attentional control and executive functioning. These cognitive domains appear to be enhanced with mindfulness training, particularly focused attention mindfulness (FAM) meditation, suggesting this practice… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/bs.pbr.2019.03.015
Abstract: The cognitive effects of sleep loss are often attributed to compromised functioning of the prefrontal cortex (PFC). However, compromised PFC functioning does not account for well-known effects of sleep deprivation on vigilance. Furthermore, the executive… read more here.
