Journal ArticleDOI
"Pray or Prey?" dissociation of semantic memory retrieval from episodic memory processes using positron emission tomography and a novel homophone task.
TL;DR: The present results clarify and extend recent attempts to understand the neural basis of semantic memory retrieval, by actively controlling for the confounding effects of episodic memory encoding and retrieval processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the Perigenual Anterior Cingulate and Orbitofrontal Cortex in Contingency Learning in the Marmoset
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of excitotoxic lesions of the perigenual anterior cingulate cortex (pgACC), a region of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), and the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) on contingency learning in the marmoset monkey using a touchscreen-based paradigm was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lesions of the dorsal noradrenergic bundle simultaneously enhance and reduce responsivity to novelty in a food preference test
TL;DR: DNAB lesions have been shown to have two, apparently contradictory effects in a food preference test: to increase neophobia to a novel environment, and to increase the tendency to eat novel food in a novel environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distractibility during selection-for-action: differential deficits in Huntington's disease and following frontal lobe damage.
TL;DR: It was found that that both HD and frontal groups were significantly more distractible than controls for RT, but they had a different pattern of errors, highlighting the critical importance of lateral, rather than orbital or medial, PFC for attention to action.
