Abstract

The mechanism and evidence for self-regulatory (SR) ego-depletion remains unclear. Some research has found catecholamine neurotransmitters to be related to SR control. Parkinson Disease (PD) is a disease affecting the catecholamine, dopamine. The current study sought to examine SR-depletion in a group of individuals with PD.
