This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Some studies have suggested that women respond to emotional information differently at different times during the menstrual cycle. This study will investigate the effects of hormone variation during the menstrual cycle on attention and memory for emotional information and associated brain activity. This involves examining attention and memory processes at two times during the menstrual cycle, once when estrogen levels are low around the first day of a woman's period and once when estrogen levels are higher approximately 12 days later around ovulation. To detect related brain activation during the memory test we will use a technique called functional magnetic resonance imaging. This will help us determine if estrogen levels change the way women respond to emotional stimuli both subjectively and at the level of the brain. Approximately 20 women will participate in this study.

该子项目是利用该技术的众多研究子项目之一 资源由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目及 研究者 (PI) 可能已从 NIH 的另一个来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中表示。列出的机构是 对于中心来说，它不一定是研究者的机构。 一些研究表明，女性在月经周期的不同时间对情绪信息的反应不同。这项研究将调查月经周期期间激素变化对情绪信息的注意力和记忆以及相关大脑活动的影响。 这涉及在月经周期期间两次检查注意力和记忆过程，一次是在女性经期第一天左右雌激素水平较低时，一次是在大约 12 天后排卵前后雌激素水平较高时。为了在记忆测试期间检测相关的大脑活动，我们将使用一种称为功能磁共振成像的技术。 这将帮助我们确定雌激素水平是否会改变女性对情绪刺激的主观反应和大脑反应方式。大约 20 名女性将参与这项研究。
