We meta-analyzed imaging studies on theory of mind and formed individual task groups
based on stimuli and instructions. Overlap in brain activation between all task groups was …

Functional neuroimaging studies have started unravelling unexpected functional attributes
for the posteromedial portion of the parietal lobe, the precuneus. This cortical area has …

To be rational is to be able to reason. Thirty years ago psychologists believed that human
reasoning depended on formal rules of inference akin to those of a logical calculus. This …

The fully updated eighth edition of Cognitive Psychology: A Student's Handbook provides
comprehensive yet accessible coverage of all the key areas in the field ranging from visual …

Precuneus responds to a wide range of cognitive processes. Here, we examined how the
patterns of resting state connectivity may define functional subregions in the precuneus …

Individual differences in general intelligence have been associated with differences in brain
structure and function. The currently most popular theory of the neural bases of intelligence …

“Is there a biology of intelligence which is characteristic of the normal human nervous
system?” Here we review 37 modern neuroimaging studies in an attempt to address this …

Evidence from functional neuroimaging studies on resting state suggests that there are two
distinct anticorrelated cortical systems that mediate conscious awareness: an “extrinsic” …

Much of cognitive research on deductive reasoning has been preoccupied with advocating
for or against visuospatial (mental model theory) or linguistic/syntactic (mental logic theory) …

We propose an integrative cognitive neuroscience framework for understanding the
cognitive and neural foundations of religious belief. Our analysis reveals 3 psychological …
