The “dorsal attention network” or “frontoparietal network” refers to a network of cortical
regions that support sustained attention and working memory. Recent work has …

The neural basis of decision making has been an elusive concept largely due to the many
subprocesses associated with it. Recent efforts involving neuroimaging, neuropsychological …

Rationale Some of the behavioral consequences of deficits in N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)
glutamate receptor function are thought to arise from the disinhibition of cortical …

The goal of this study was to investigate the neurocognitive processes of mental imagery in
deductive reasoning. Behavioral studies yielded four sorts of verbal relations:(1) visuospatial …

Anatomical studies in the macaque cortex and functional imaging studies in humans have
demonstrated the existence of different cortical areas within the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) …

Human neuroimaging studies conducted during visuospatial working memory tasks have
inconsistently detected activation in the prefrontal cortical areas depending presumably on …

Spatial representations are processed in the service of several different cognitive functions.
The present study capitalizes on the Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) method of meta …

A hallmark of primate, and particularly human, behavior is cognitive control, the ability to
integrate information from a multitude of sources and use that information to flexibly guide …

Chronic alcoholism is associated with impairment in sustained attention and visual working
memory. Thus, alcoholics have reduced ability, but not necessarily inability, to perform these …

This review focuses on the viability of working memory impairment as an endophenotypic
marker of a schizophrenia diathesis. It begins with an introduction of the construct of working …
