Convergent evidence highlights the differential contributions of various regions of the
prefrontal cortex in the service of cognitive control, but little is understood about how the …

The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and associated regions of the medial frontal wall
have often been hypothesized to play an important role in cognitive control. We have …

Planning and executing volitional actions in the face of conflicting habitual responses is a
critical aspect of human behavior. At the core of the interplay between these 2 control …

Response inhibition refers to the suppression of prepared or initiated actions. Typically, the
go/no-go task (GNGT) or the stop signal task (SST) are used interchangeably to capture …

The capacity to evaluate the outcomes of our actions is fundamental for adapting and
optimizing behavior and depends on an action-monitoring system that assesses ongoing …

The primary aim of this study was to examine how response inhibition is reflected in
components of the event‐related potential (ERP), using the stop‐signal paradigm as a tool …

The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) is a critical component of the human mediofrontal neural
circuit that monitors ongoing processing in the cognitive system for signs of erroneous …

To head rather than heed to temptations is easier said than done. Since tempting actions are
often contextually inappropriate, selective suppression is invoked to inhibit such actions …

The ability to suppress one's impulses and actions constitutes a fundamental mechanism of
cognitive control, thought to be subserved by the right inferior frontal cortex (rIFC). The …

An essential facet of adaptive and versatile behavior is the ability to prioritize actions in
response to dynamically changing circumstances. The field of potential actions afforded by a …
