The frontal lobes are important for cognitive control, yet their functional organization remains
controversial. An influential class of theory proposes that the frontal lobes are organized …

The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) has a near-ubiquitous presence in the
neuroscience of cognitive control. It has been implicated in a diversity of functions, from …

Research on cognitive control and executive function has long recognized the relevance of
motivational factors. Recently, however, the topic has come increasingly to center stage, with …

Depression is a syndrome of stress-and emotion-dysregulation, involving compromised
structural integrity of frontal-limbic networks. Meta-analytic evidence indicates that volumetric …

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has consistently been implicated in cognitive
control of motor behavior. There is, however, considerable variability in the exact location …

Brain regions are often topographically connected: nearby locations within one brain area
connect with nearby locations in another area. Mapping these connection topographies, or …

Distancing is a type of emotion regulation that involves simulating a new perspective to alter
the psychological distance and emotional impact of a stimulus. The effectiveness and …

Dopaminergic networks modulate neural processing across a spectrum of function from
perception to learning to action. Multiple organizational schemes based on anatomy and …

Recent meta-analyses of structural and functional neuroimaging studies are converging on
a collective core of brain regions affected across most psychiatric disorders, centered on the …

In the last two decades the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has become one of the most
investigated areas of the brain. Extensive neuroimaging evidence suggests countless …
