Two decades of cross-species neuroscience research on rapid action-stopping in the
laboratory has provided motivation for an underlying prefrontal–basal ganglia circuit. Here …

The past two decades have witnessed an explosion of interest in the cognitive and neural
mechanisms of adaptive control processes that operate in selective attention tasks. This has …

Emotions are able to impact our ability to control our behaviors. However, it is not clear
whether emotions play a detrimental or an advantageous effect on action control and …

The ability to dynamically change motor outputs, such as stopping an initiated response, is
an important aspect of human behavior. A hyperdirect pathway between the inferior frontal …

Beta oscillations (∼ 13 to 30 Hz) have been observed during many perceptual, cognitive,
and motor processes in a plethora of brain recording studies. Although the function of beta …

Since the dawn of cognitive neuroscience, emotions have been recognized to impact on
several executive processes, such as action inhibition. However, the complex interplay …

Abstract The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study® is a 10-year
longitudinal study of children recruited at ages 9 and 10. A battery of neuroimaging tasks are …

The ability to stop already-initiated actions is a key cognitive control ability. Recent work on
human action-stopping has been dominated by two controversial debates. First, the …

Action-stopping is a canonical executive function thought to involve top-down control over
the motor system. Here we aimed to validate this stopping system using high temporal …

Performance monitoring is an important executive function that allows us to gain insight into
our own behaviour. This remarkable ability relies on the frontal cortex, and its impairment is …
