Journal ArticleDOI

Conflict monitoring and cognitive control.

TL;DR: Two computational modeling studies are reported, serving to articulate the conflict monitoring hypothesis and examine its implications, including a feedback loop connecting conflict monitoring to cognitive control, and a number of important behavioral phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anterior cingulate cortex, error detection, and the online monitoring of performance

TL;DR: Results confirm that this region shows activity during erroneous responses, but activity was also observed in the same region during correct responses under conditions of increased response competition, which suggests that the ACC detects conditions under which errors are likely to occur rather than errors themselves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal dynamics of brain activation during a working memory task

TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging is used to examine brain activation in human subjects during performance of a working memory task and to show that prefrontal cortex along with parietal cortex appears to play a role in active maintenance.
Journal ArticleDOI

The variable nature of cognitive control: a dual mechanisms framework.

TL;DR: Recent research is summarized that demonstrates how the DMC framework provides a coherent explanation of three sources of cognitive control variation - intra-individual, inter-individual and between-groups - in terms of proactive versus reactive control biases.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Parametric Study of Prefrontal Cortex Involvement in Human Working Memory

TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging is used to probe PFC activity during a sequential letter task in which memory load was varied in an incremental fashion, providing a "dose-response curve" describing the involvement of both PFC and related brain regions in WM function.
