A basic survival need is the ability to respond to, and persevere in the midst of, experiential
challenges. Mechanisms of neuroplasticity permit this responsivity via functional adaptations …

Intact cognitive control or executive function has characteristic patterns in both behavior and
functional neurocircuitry. Functional neuroimaging studies have shown that a frontal …

Objective: Cognitive deficits are a common feature of psychiatric disorders. The authors
investigated the nature of disruptions in neural circuitry underlying cognitive control …

Chronic stress‐related psychiatric diseases, such as major depression, posttraumatic stress
disorder, and schizophrenia, are characterized by a maladaptive organization of behavioral …

Prefrontal cortical executive functions comprise a number of cognitive capabilities necessary
for goal directed behavior and adaptation to a changing environment. Executive dysfunction …

Cognitive control is essential for efficient information processing and behavioral response
under conditions of uncertainty and underlies the broad range of “executive functions.” While …

Deficits in brain networks that support cognitive regulatory functions are prevalent in many
psychiatric disorders. Findings across neuropsychology and neuroimaging point to broad …

Disadvantageous decision‐making and impaired volitional control over actions, thoughts,
and emotions are characteristics of a wide range of mental disorders such as addiction …

Chronic stress and depressive-like behaviors in basic neuroscience research have been
associated with impairments of neuroplasticity, such as neuronal atrophy and synaptic loss …

Twenty years ago, cognitive impairments were recognized as an unmet treatment need in
schizophrenia. Basic science discoveries in neuroplasticity had led to cognitive training …
