Performance monitoring is an important executive function that allows us to gain insight into
our own behaviour. This remarkable ability relies on the frontal cortex, and its impairment is …

In many circumstances alternative courses of action and thoughts have to be inhibited to
allow the emergence of goal-directed behavior. However, this has not been the accepted …

Inhibitory control describes the suppression of goal-irrelevant stimuli and behavioral
responses. Current developmental taxonomies distinguish between Response Inhibition …

Classic cognitive theory conceptualizes executive functions as involving multiple specific
domains, including initiation, inhibition, working memory, flexibility, planning, and vigilance …

Inhibitory control enables humans to stop prepotent motor activity, and is commonly studied
using go/no‐go or stop‐signal tasks. In stop‐signal tasks, prepotent motor activity is elicited …

In this review, we examine the structural connectivity of a recently-identified fiber pathway,
the frontal aslant tract (FAT), and explore its function. We first review structural connectivity …

It has been argued that emotion, pain and cognitive control are functionally segregated in
distinct subdivisions of the cingulate cortex. However, recent observations encourage a …

Coordinated interactions between the central and autonomic nervous systems are crucial for
survival due to the inherent propensity for human behavior to make errors. In our ever …

Childhood obesity rates have risen dramatically over the past few decades. Although obesity
has been linked to poorer neurocognitive functioning in adults, much less is known about …

Neuropsychological approaches represent an important avenue for identifying susceptibility
and resiliency factors relating to the development and maintenance of posttraumatic stress …
