The anterior frontomedian cortex and evaluative judgment: An fMRI study
TL;DR: The results show a functional dissociation between the activations in the anterior frontomedian cortex and in the inferior precuneus, which was mainly activated by episodic retrieval processes, supporting its function as a multimodal association area that integrates the different aspects of retrieved and newly presented information.

Validity of the behavior rating inventory of executive function in children with ADHD and/or Tourette syndrome
E. Mark Mahone,Paul T. Cirino,Paul T. Cirino,Laurie E. Cutting,Laurie E. Cutting,Paula M. Cerrone,Paula M. Cerrone,Kathleen M. Hagelthorn,Kathleen M. Hagelthorn,Jennifer R. Hiemenz,Jennifer R. Hiemenz,Harvey S. Singer,Harvey S. Singer,Martha B. Denckla,Martha B. Denckla +14 more
TL;DR: The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function showed a strong relationship with interviews and other parent rating measures of behaviors seen in ADHD, and future attempts to validate the BRIEF should focus on differences within subtypes of ADHD (e.g., inattentive, combined subtypes), and separating ADHD from other clinical groups in which EF is reported to be a problem.

Cognitive Processes in Decisions Under Risk are not the Same as in Decisions Under Uncertainty.
Kirsten G. Volz,Gerd Gigerenzer +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that the cognitive processes for making decisions in a world of risk are not the same as those for dealing with uncertainty, and it is unlikely that the authors' brains are adapted to them.

The Cerebral Response during Subjective Choice with and without Self-reference
Sterling C. Johnson,Taylor W. Schmitz,Tisha N. Kawahara-baccus,Howard A. Rowley,Andrew L. Alexander,Jonghoon Lee,Richard J. Davidson +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicated greater activation in the AMPFC, RSC, and caudate nucleus during internal subjective decision-making, and suggest that self-referential processing, rather than subjective judgments among ambiguous response alternatives, accounted for the AMPs and RSC response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reading is believing: the truth effect and source credibility.
Linda A. Henkel,Mark E. Mattson +1 more
TL;DR: The authors explored how source reliability influences people's tendency to rate statements as more credible when they were encountered earlier (the truth effect) and found that statements read multiple times were perceived as more valid and were more often correctly identified on a general knowledge test than statements read once or not at all.

Severe disturbance of higher cognition after bilateral frontal lobe ablation Patient EVR
TL;DR: After bilateral ablation of orbital and lower mesial frontal cortices, a patient had profound changes of behavior that have remained stable for 8 years, and was considered a “malingerer.”

Patterns of Hand Preference in a Student Population
Gary G. Briggs,Robert D. Nebes +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that a family history of left-handedness was significantly related to the handedness of the subject and the present form of the Annett inventory provides an easily scorable inventory for determininghandedness of large groups as well as for use in individual testing situations.

Magnetic resonance imaging and computerized tomography in relation to the neurobehavioral sequelae of mild and moderate head injuries
Harvey S. Levin,Eugenio G. Amparo,Howard M. Eisenberg,David H. Williams,Walter M. High,Craig B. McArdle,Richard L. Weiner +6 more
TL;DR: Twenty patients admitted for minor or moderate closed-head injury were studied to investigate the relationship between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and neurobehavioral sequelae and found deficits in frontal lobe functioning and memory were related to the size and localization of the lesions as defined by MRI.
