Serotonin 5-HT1A receptor binding and self-transcendence in healthy control subjects-a replication study using Bayesian hypothesis testing.

PeerJ 2018 Gina Griffioen, Granville J. Matheson, Simon Cervenka et al.

A putative relationship between markers for the serotonin system and the personality scale self-transcendence (ST) and its subscale spiritual acceptance (SA) has been demonstrated in a previous PET study of 5-HT1A receptor binding in healthy control subjects. The results could however not be replicated in a subsequent PET study at an independent centre. In this study, we performed a replication...

Individual differences in the proneness to have flow experiences are linked to dopamine D2-receptor availability in the dorsal striatum.

Neuroimage November 2, 2012 Örjan De Manzano, Simon Cervenka, Aurelija Jucaite et al.

Flow is a subjective experience of high but effortless attention, enjoyment, and low self-awareness that can occur during the active performance of challenging tasks. The dispositional proneness to experience flow is associated with personality traits that are known to be influenced by dopaminergic neural systems. Here, for the first time, we investigated relations between flow proneness and...
