The article discusses the mechanisms underlying the integration of afferent information into the structures of the Central Nervous System (CNS), on the basis of which a multisensory model (cross-modal afferentation) is developed. It is emphasized that such multisensory integration and the resulting response often lead to more selective and rapid reactions than the reaction caused by perception in the only one modality. However, the combined use of multisensory afferentations may lead to «conflict between different modalities». Using the concept of «human connectome» explains much better the processes occurring in the structures of the CNS, including multisensory integration, than schemes previously built on anatomical data. A key element in determining the type of the individual’s response to changing environmental conditions is the equally dynamic neuronal system of relations. This communication system depends on both external information and internal factors, including neuronal oscillations. These oscillations trigger the processes that result in the generation of new ideas (creative thinking), motivation to perform certain actions, and under certain conditions (including genetically determined) - the emergence of various types of neuropsychiatric disorders, including illusions, hallucinations, delusions (syndromes of Capgrás, Fregoli, intermetamorphosis, syndrome of own twins).

The Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (Figural Form A) and Sounds and Images were administered to 26 learning-disabled and 30 average students in Grades 3, 4, and 5. Significant differences between the two groups were noted on all measures except fluency. Although learning-disabled students produced an equivalent number of relevant creative responses in comparison to their average peers, they were less able to generate new ideas and change their initial approach.

SummaryIn 55 chronic schizophrenics, the occurrence of infectious diseases during their mothers’ pregnancies was investigated. Different psychiatric diagnostic systems were compared. Infections were reported by the mothers of familial and sporadic DSM III-R schizophrenics in equal proportion. However, applying Leonhard's classification, the frequency of infections was found to be significantly increased in ‘systematic’ schizophrenia (mainly exogenously induced in the view of Leonhard) compared to ‘unsystematic’ schizophrenia (mainly genetically determined according to Leonhard's findings). Most of the infections occurred during the second trimester (nine out of 13). Thus, in the ‘systematic’ forms of schizophrenia (low genetic loading), maternal infections in this crucial period of neurodevelopmenl would appear to be important causative factors in the cytoarchitectural deviance delected in the central nervous system of schizophrenics.

Experimental Autoimmune

The central nervous system (CNS) is an immune-privileged organ with the capacity to prevent excessive inflammation. Aside from the blood-brain barrier, active immunosuppressive mechanisms remain largely unknown. We report that a neuron-specific molecule, synaptic adhesion-like molecule 5 (SALM5), is a crucial contributor to CNS immune privilege. We found that SALM5 suppressed lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory responses in the CNS and that a SALM-specific monoclonal antibody promoted inflammation in the CNS, and thereby aggravated clinical symptoms of mouse experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. In addition, we identified herpes virus entry mediator as a functional receptor that mediates SALM5’s suppressive function. Our findings reveal a molecular link between the neuronal system and the immune system, and provide potential therapeutic targets for the control of CNS diseases.

30 undergraduates were allowed unlimited time to “think of ways to change or improve a door knob.” One group (Short Checklist) was taught to use a 7-item checklist which suggested general categories of ideas (i.e., change colors, shape, material, design/style, size; rearrange parts; add/subtract something). A second group (Long Checklist) used Osborn's (1963) “73 idea-spurring questions” as an idea checklist. Ss in the third group were instructed in the morphological synthesis procedure in which ideas for improving one quality of an object (e.g., color or shape) are listed along one axis and ideas for improving other qualities are listed along other axes. New ideas are produced by combining ideas on various axes. The fourth group (Control) received no instruction regarding techniques. The results showed that Ss in the Short-checklist and Morphological Synthesis Groups produced the greatest total number of ideas and the greatest number of high quality ideas. While the four groups did not differ significantly in the amount of S-determined problem-solving time, Ss in the Short-checklist Group used more time than Ss in the other groups, supporting earlier findings that the short checklist is stimulating and challenging.

This study discusses the dynamics of Indonesian student movement in the New Order era between 1966 until 1998. It also analyses the responses of the authority to their movement and its impact. This research uses the qualitative method of literature review and interviews where the arguments are presented in descriptive analysis. Based on Antonio Gramsci’s concept of hegemony, this study has uncovered the hegemonic means utilized by the authority to undermine student movement. The description of how this social formation was defragmented, justified and then integrated into bureaucratic processes where their existence was then consented as a subordinated class. In reality, the student movement under the New Order government was closely related to the situation of socio-politics and character of the regime. Nevertheless, the Asian economic crisis jolted the revival of the student movement to its initial vibrant state which brought down Suharto’s regime in 1998. This study has proven that hegemonic process also has a shelf-life as the masses will eventually see through the regime’s political construction. This eventuality was due to external and internal factors such as development of information technology, the rise of cyber-power, international politics and the emergence of new ideas.
