Response inhibition paradigms, as for example stop signal and go/no-go tasks, are often
used to study cognitive control processes. Because of the apparent demand to stop a motor …

Over the last two decades, a large number of studies have concluded that bilingualism
enhances executive functions. However, other studies have reported no significant results …

Background: Develo** reliable and specific neural markers of cognitive processes is
essential to improve understanding of healthy and atypical brain function. Despite extensive …

Despite an extensive literature on the neural substrates of response inhibition, when and
where this process occurs in the brain remain unclear. The present study aimed to shed light …

As people age, their performance on tasks requiring cognitive control often declines. Such a
decline is frequently explained as either a general or specific decline in cognitive functioning …

Combining walking with a demanding cognitive task is traditionally expected to elicit
decrements in gait and/or cognitive task performance. However, it was recently shown that …

The usefulness of the event‐related potential (ERP) method can be compromised by
violations of the underlying assumptions, for example, confounding variations of latency and …

While aging and stress are both known to affect cognitive functions, little is known on
whether and how age modulates stress effects on executive functions and their neural …

Fitts' law and throughput based on effective measures are two mathematical models
frequently used to analyze human motor performance in a standardized pointing task, eg, to …

Although, in everyday life, patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are
frequently distracted by goal-irrelevant affective stimuli, little is known about the neural and …
