Cognitive control (with the closely related concepts of attention control and executive
function) encompasses the collection of processes that are involved in generating and …

Different levels of feedback, from sensory signals to verbal advice, are needed not only for
learning new skills, but also for monitoring performance. A great deal of research has …

Investigations into the neurophysiological underpinnings of control suggest that frontal theta
activity is increased with the need for control. However, these studies typically show this link …

Cognitive control involves both proactive and reactive processes. Paradigms that rely on
reactive control have shown that frontoparietal oscillatory synchronization in the theta …

Mind wandering during ongoing tasks can impede task performance and increase the risk of
failure in the laboratory as well as in daily‐life tasks and work environments. Neurocognitive …

Objective The feedback negativity (FN) is an event-related potential that differentiates
unfavorable versus favorable outcomes. Although thought to reflect error-related activity …

Reward processing in humans is carried out by an extensive fronto-subcortical network that
might be coordinated by fast oscillatory electrical activity. Previous studies have identified an …

Oscillatory activity has been proposed as a key mechanism in the integration of brain activity
of distant structures. Particularly, high frequency brain oscillatory activity in the beta and …

Low frequency oscillations in the theta range (4–8 Hz) are increasingly recognized as
having a crucial role in flexible cognition. Such evidence is typically derived from studies in …

Adaptively changing between different tasks while in locomotion is a fundamental
prerequisite of modern daily life. The cognitive processes underlying dual tasking have been …
