因果扰动为大脑机制和大脑功能之间的关系提供了最强有力的测试。在认知神经科学中,令人信服的因果扰动很难实现。在最近的一篇论文中,Ni等人巧妙地使用神经精神药物哌甲酯(利他林)来因果测试支持目标导向注意的大脑机制。
Causal perturbations provide the strongest tests of the relationships between brain mechanism and brain function. In cognitive neuroscience, persuasive causal perturbations are difficult to achieve. In a recent paper, Ni et al. cleverly use the neuropsychiatric drug methylphenidate (Ritalin) to causally test the brain mechanisms that support goal-directed attention.
