Specificity of the effect of a nicotinic receptor polymorphism on individual differences in visuospatial attention.

Journal of cognitive neuroscience - 1 Oct 2005

Greenwood Pamela M, Fossella John A, Parasuraman Raja

Abstract excerpt

Cortical neurotransmitter availability is known to exert domain-specific effects on cognitive performance. Hence, normal variation in genes with a role in neurotransmission may also have specific effects on cognition. We tested this hypothesis by examining associations between polymorphisms in genes affecting cholinergic and noradrenergic neurotransmission and individual differences in visuospatial attention....
