Temporal dynamics of attentional selection in adult male carriers of the fragile X premutation allele and adult controls

Temporal dynamics of attentional selection in adult male carriers of the fragile X premutation allele and adult controls

Carriers of the fragile X premutation allele (fXPCs) have an expanded CGG trinucleotide repeat size within the emph{FMR1} gene and are at increased risk of developing Fragile X-associated Tremor Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS). Previous research has shown that male fXPCs with FXTAS exhibit cognitive decline...
