A model of dual control mechanisms through anterior cingulate and prefrontal cortex interactions

TLDR
A computational model is presented that describes dual mechanisms of cognitive control through interactions between the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) that provided an excellent fit to both the behavioral and brain imaging data from a previous detailed empirical study on humans performing the color-word version of the Stroop task.About:

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
On the relationship between anxiety and error monitoring: a meta-analysis and conceptual framework.
TL;DR: It is argued that anxious apprehension/worry is the dimension of anxiety most closely associated with error monitoring and the conceptual framework helps explain this more specific relationship between anxiety and enhanced ERN and delineates the unique roles of worry, conflict processing, and modes of cognitive control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation by binding: a learning account of cognitive control.
Tom Verguts,Wim Notebaert +1 more
TL;DR: This work proposes that conflict situations such as Stroop incongruent-stimuli lead to arousal and noradrenalin release throughout the brain, which facilitates binding between task-relevant cortical areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating and differentiating aspects of self-regulation: effortful control, executive functioning, and links to negative affectivity.
TL;DR: Comparisons and differences between effortful control, based on the psychobiological model of temperament, and executive functioning are examined and empirically tested, and a potential framework for guiding future work directed at integrating and differentiating aspects of self-regulation is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Nature and Transfer of Cognitive Skills
TL;DR: The primitive elements theory of cognitive skills is presented, which makes it possible to construct detailed process models of 2 classic transfer studies in the literature and produces better fits of the amount of transfer than Singley and Anderson's (1985) identical productions model.

Neural networks and physical systems with emergent collective computational abilities
TL;DR: A model of a system having a large number of simple equivalent components, based on aspects of neurobiology but readily adapted to integrated circuits, produces a content-addressable memory which correctly yields an entire memory from any subpart of sufficient size.
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.

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.

Anterior cingulate conflict monitoring and adjustments in control

TL;DR: Using the Stroop color-naming task and controlling for repetition effects, it is demonstrated that ACC conflict-related activity predicts both greater prefrontal cortex activity and adjustments in behavior, supporting a role of ACC conflict monitoring in the engagement of cognitive control.

On the time relations of mental processes: An examination of systems of processes in cascade.
TL;DR: In this paper, a cascade model is presented and it is shown to be compatible with the general form of the relation between time and accuracy in speed-accuracy trade-off experiments.
