The role of prefrontal cortex in working-memory capacity, executive attention, and general fluid intelligence: An individual-differences perspective

TL;DR: Although the dorsolateral PFC is but one critical structure in a network of anterior and posterior “attention control” areas, it does have a unique executiveattention role in actively maintaining access to stimulus representations and goals in interference-rich contexts.
Journal ArticleDOI

What do verbal fluency tasks measure? Predictors of verbal fluency performance in older adults

TL;DR: The results highlight the hybrid character of both fluency tasks, which may limit their usefulness for research and clinical purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal pattern of regional brain volume change differentiates normal aging from MCI

TL;DR: Although age-related regional volume loss is apparent and widespread in nondemented individuals, mild cognitive impairment is associated with a unique pattern of structural vulnerability reflected in differential volume loss in specific regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Face perception after brain injury: selective impairments affecting identity and expression.

TL;DR: Response latency data confirmed the finding of a selective deficit in the processing of facial expressions, but produced evidence suggesting that impairments affecting familiar face recognition and unfamiliar face matching were not completely independent from each other in this group of ex-servicemen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Problem solving, working memory, and motor correlates of association and commissural fiber bundles in normal aging: a quantitative fiber tracking study.

TL;DR: The observed pattern of relations supports the possibility that regional degradation of white matter fiber integrity is a biological source of age-related functional compromise and may have the potential to limit accessibility to alternative neural systems to compensate for compromised function.
