Emotional foundations of cognitive control
Often seen as the paragon of higher cognition, here we suggest that cognitive control is
dependent on emotion. Rather than asking whether control is influenced by emotion, we ask …

Dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex in addiction: neuroimaging findings and clinical implications
RZ Goldstein, ND Volkow - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2011 - nature.com
The loss of control over drug intake that occurs in addiction was initially believed to result
from disruption of subcortical reward circuits. However, imaging studies in addictive …

Frontal midline theta reflects anxiety and cognitive control: meta-analytic evidence
Evidence from imaging and anatomical studies suggests that the midcingulate cortex (MCC)
is a dynamic hub lying at the interface of affect and cognition. In particular, this neural system …

Neurophysiology of performance monitoring and adaptive behavior
Successful goal-directed behavior requires not only correct action selection, planning, and
execution but also the ability to flexibly adapt behavior when performance problems occur or …

Making sense of all the conflict: a theoretical review and critique of conflict-related ERPs
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 …

Influence of cognitive control and mismatch on the N2 component of the ERP: a review
Recent years have seen an explosion of research on the N2 component of the event‐related
potential, a negative wave peaking between 200 and 350 ms after stimulus onset. This …

The role of the medial frontal cortex in cognitive control
Adaptive goal-directed behavior involves monitoring of ongoing actions and performance
outcomes, and subsequent adjustments of behavior and learning. We evaluate new findings …

Cognitive bias modification and cognitive control training in addiction and related psychopathology: Mechanisms, clinical perspectives, and ways forward
The past decade has witnessed a surge in research on training paradigms aimed at directly
influencing cognitive processes in addiction and other psychopathology. Broadly, two …

Post-error adjustments
When our brain detects an error, this process changes how we react on ensuing trials.
People show post-error adaptations, potentially to improve their performance in the near …
