Meta-analytic evidence for a superordinate cognitive control network subserving diverse executive functions

TL;DR: In this article, a common pattern of activation was observed in the prefrontal, dorsal anterior cingulate, and parietal cortices across executive function domains, supporting the idea that executive functions are supported by a superordinate cognitive control network.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the division of attention: a disproof of the single channel hypothesis.

TL;DR: In two experiments reported here, it is shown that people can attend to and repeat back continuous speech at the same time as taking in complex, unrelated visual scenes, or even while sight-reading piano music.

Human walking and higher‐level gait disorders, particularly in the elderly

TL;DR: A nosologic classification of gait disorders is suggested that may be of value to clinicians and will consider the requirements for walking, their neuroanatomic and neurophysiologic bases, and the voluminous, but confusing, clinical literature and how it relates to their classification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomical and physiological foundations of cerebellar information processing

TL;DR: A model of spinocerebellar interactions in which the structure–functional organizing principle is a division of the cerebellum into discrete microcomplexes is presented, which reveals salient features of cerebellar information processing.

How similar are fluid cognition and general intelligence? A developmental neuroscience perspective on fluid cognition as an aspect of human cognitive ability

TL;DR: It is concluded that ongoing development of neurobiologically grounded measures of fluid cognitive skills appropriate for young children will play a key role in understanding early mental development and the adaptive success to which it is related, particularly for youngChildren facing social and economic disadvantage.
