TLDR
The electrophysiological correlates of successful insight problem solving (Chinese logogriphs) were studied in 18 healthy subjects using high-density event-related potentials and "Aha" feeling might activate the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC).Citations

A Review of EEG, ERP, and Neuroimaging Studies of Creativity and Insight.

TL;DR: Divergent thinking does not appear to critically depend on any single mental process or brain region, and it is not especially associated with right brains, defocused attention, low arousal, or alpha synchronization, as sometimes hypothesized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroimaging creativity: A psychometric view
TL;DR: It is found that creativity research would benefit from psychometrically informed revision, and the addition of neuroimaging methods designed to provide greater spatial localization of function, in order to see the benefit of imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurocognitive poetics: methods and models for investigating the neuronal and cognitive-affective bases of literature reception.
TL;DR: Methods and models for investigating the neuronal and cognitive-affective bases of literary reading together with pertinent results from studies on poetics, text processing, emotion, or neuroaesthetics are discussed and outline current challenges and future perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI
The roles of the temporal lobe in creative insight: an integrated review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the contributions of discrete temporal regions to insight and found that the medial temporal regions are indicative of novelty recognition and detection, which is necessary for the formation of novel associations and the “Aha!” experience.

Can clouds dance? Part 2: an ERP investigation of passive conceptual expansion.

TL;DR: The results showed a graded N400 modulation for phrases judged to be unusual and inappropriate (nonsense) or unusual and appropriate (conceptual expansion, novel metaphorical) relative to usual and appropriate phrases.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is the P300 component a manifestation of context updating
TL;DR: The amplitude of the P300 component is controlled multiplicatively by the subjective probability and task relevance of eliciting events, whereas its latency depends on the duration of stimulus evaluation as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conflict monitoring and anterior cingulate cortex: an update
TL;DR: Recent research has begun to shed light on the larger function of the ACC, suggesting some new possibilities concerning how conflict monitoring might fit into the cingulate's overall role in cognition and action.

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.

Disconnexion syndromes in animals and man
TL;DR: This paper would never have been written without Professor Zangwill’s urging, and I am grateful to him for having brought me to a more careful review of the older literature and a more precise statement of my own ideas.
