The present article on executive control addresses the issue of the locus of the Stroop effect
by examining neurophysiological components marking conflict monitoring, interference …

The inhibition of inappropriate behaviors is important for adaptive living in changing
environments. The present study investigated gender‐related behavioral inhibitory control …

The primate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)
focus attention on relevant signals and suppress noise in cognitive tasks. However, their …

Dorsolateral prefrontal areas 46 and 10 are involved in distinct aspects of cognition. Area 46
has a key role in working memory tasks, and frontopolar area 10 is recruited in complex …

Recent neuroimaging studies have been trying to investigate the neural correlates of
deception. To explore the temporal course of neural activity underlying deception, we …

The present study investigated neural correlations underlying the psychological processing
of stimuli with various degrees of self-relevance. Event-related potentials were recorded for …

Switching among cognitive tasks results in switch costs which are only partly reduced even
after sufficient task preparation. These residual switch costs are frequently explained in …

The study examined the relation between self-reported impulsivity and inhibitory control in
normal individuals. We compared stop** performance and neural correlates of stop** …

The lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) of the primate play
distinctive roles in the mediation of complex cognitive tasks. Compared with the LPFC …

People tell lies not only for their own self-interests but sometimes also to help others. Little is
known about the ways in which different types of goals modulate behaviors and neural …
