Functional role of the supplementary and pre-supplementary motor areas
The supplementary motor complex consists of the supplementary motor area, the
supplementary eye field and the pre-supplementary motor area. In recent years, these areas …

Human volition: towards a neuroscience of will
P Haggard - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2008 - nature.com
The capacity for voluntary action is seen as essential to human nature. Yet neuroscience
and behaviourist psychology have traditionally dismissed the topic as unscientific, perhaps …

[HTML][HTML] Supra-personal cognitive control and metacognition
The human mind is extraordinary in its ability not merely to respond to events as they unfold
but also to adapt its own operation in pursuit of its agenda. This 'cognitive control'can be …

Motivation and cognitive control in the human prefrontal cortex
F Kouneiher, S Charron, E Koechlin - Nature neuroscience, 2009 - nature.com
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) subserves cognitive control, that is, the ability to select thoughts
or actions in relation to internal goals. Little is known, however, about how the PFC …

Control mechanisms in bilingual language production: Neural evidence from language switching studies
J Abutalebi, DW Green∗ - Language and cognitive processes, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
A key question in bilingual language production research is how bilingual individuals control
the use of their two languages. The psycholinguistic literature concerning language control …

Have we been asking the right questions when assessing response inhibition in go/no-go tasks with fMRI? A meta-analysis and critical review
M Criaud, P Boulinguez - Neuroscience & biobehavioral reviews, 2013 - Elsevier
The popular go/no-go paradigm is supposed to ensure a reliable probing of response
inhibition mechanisms. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have …

Functional connectivity delineates distinct roles of the inferior frontal cortex and presupplementary motor area in stop signal inhibition
The neural basis of motor response inhibition has drawn considerable attention in recent
imaging literature. Many studies have used the go/no-go or stop signal task to examine the …

Preparation to inhibit a response complements response inhibition during performance of a stop-signal task
Inhibition of inappropriate responses is an essential executive function needed for
adaptation to changing environments. In stop-signal tasks, which are often used to …

Cortical glutamate and GABA are related to compulsive behaviour in individuals with obsessive compulsive disorder and healthy controls
There has been little analysis of neurochemical correlates of compulsive behaviour to
illuminate its underlying neural mechanisms. We use 7-Tesla proton magnetic resonance …

Gamma-band activity in human prefrontal cortex codes for the number of relevant items maintained in working memory
Previous studies in electrophysiology have provided consistent evidence for a relationship
between neural oscillations in different frequency bands and the maintenance of information …
