Cognitive control theory suggests that goal-directed behavior is governed by a dynamic
interplay between areas of the prefrontal cortex. Critical to cognitive control is the detection …

To detect erroneous action outcomes is necessary for flexible adjustments and therefore a
prerequisite of adaptive, goal-directed behavior. While performance monitoring has been …

We review two decades of research on the error-related negativity (ERN or Ne), a
component of the event-related brain potential that accompanies errors in speeded …

We conducted a literature review to examine the functional significance of the error positivity
(Pe), an error-related electrophysiological brain potential often observed in combination with …

The ability to detect and compensate for errors is crucial in producing effective, goal-directed
behavior. Human error processing is reflected in two event-related brain potential …

Error‐processing research has demonstrated that the brain uses a specialized neural
network to detect errors during task performance but the brain regions necessary for …

Despite the existence of speech errors, verbal communication is successful because
speakers can detect (and correct) their errors. The standard theory of speech-error detection …

The error-related negativity (ERN) is a negative deflection approximately 50ms following an
erroneous response, and is thought to reflect activity of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), a …

Error processing results in a number of consequences on multiple levels. The posterior
frontomedian cortex (pFMC) is involved in performance monitoring and signalling the need …

From its discovery in the early 1990s until this day, the error-related negativity (ERN)
remains the most widely investigated electrophysiological index of cortical error processing …
