Long Term Studies

While dopamine agonists are still traditionally used as adjunct medications to improve performance and smooth out motor response complications in advanced levodopa-treated Parkinson's disease, they are increasingly used in monotherapy or early in combination with levodopa particularly in patients under 65 years of age. Long-term studies using bromocriptine showed efficacy in lowering the cumulative levodopa dose and reducing the early incidence of levodopa-related motor response complications. New dopamine agonists have recently shown efficacy as adjunct medications in short-term trials. While we now have more options to fit our individual patients' needs and tolerance, it is important to view the new agonists in the light of the results obtained with ergot derivatives. In this article, the rationale for use and efficacy profile of the ergolines are briefly reviewed.

The Impact

A test was done to see if reading a newspaper which consistently overrepresents foreigners as criminals strengthens the automatic association between foreign country and criminal in memory (i.e., implicit cultivation). Further, an investigation was done to find out if reading articles from the same newspaper produces a short-term effect on the same measure and if (1) emotionalization of the newspaper texts, (2) emotional reactions of the reader (indicated by arousal), and (3) attributed text credibility moderate the short-term treatment effect. Eighty-five participants were assigned to one of three experimental conditions. Participants in the control group received short factual crime texts, where the nationality of the offender was not mentioned. Participants in the factual treatment group received the same texts, but the foreign nationality was mentioned. Participants in the emotionalized treatment group received emotionalized articles (i.e., texts which are high in vividness and frequency) covering the same crimes, with the foreign nationality mentioned. Supporting empirical evidence for implicit cultivation and a short-term effect was found. However, only emotionalized articles produced a short-term effect on the strength of the automatic association, indicating that newspaper texts must have a minimum of stimulus intensity to overcome an effect threshold. There were no moderating effects of arousal or credibility pertaining to the impact on the implicit measure. However, credibility moderated the short-term effect on a first-order judgment (i.e., estimated frequency of foreigners of all criminals). This indicates that a newspaper’s effect on the strength of automatic associations is relatively independent from processes of propositional reasoning.
