The neural basis of the speed–accuracy tradeoff

TLDR
Recent studies that show SAT is modulated in association and pre-motor areas rather than in sensory or primary motor areas and suggest that emphasis on response speed increases the baseline firing rate of cortical integrator neurons.

The Diffusion Decision Model: Theory and Data for Two-Choice Decision Tasks

TL;DR: The diffusion decision model is reviewed to show how it translates behavioral data accuracy, mean response times, and response time distributions into components of cognitive processing, including research in the domains of aging and neurophysiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Expected Value of Control: An Integrative Theory of Anterior Cingulate Cortex Function

TL;DR: This work presents a normative model of EVC that integrates three critical factors: the expected payoff from a controlled process, the amount of control that must be invested to achieve that payoff, and the cost in terms of cognitive effort.
Journal ArticleDOI

From reactive to proactive and selective control: developing a richer model for stopping inappropriate responses

TL;DR: This article reviews recent developments in the cognitive neuroscience of stopping responses and argues that proactive inhibitory control may have wider validity than reactive control as an experimental model for stopping inappropriate responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structural basis of inter-individual differences in human behaviour and cognition

TL;DR: It is proposed that inter-individual differences can be used as a source of information to link human behaviour and cognition to brain anatomy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-stage dynamic signal detection: a theory of choice, decision time, and confidence.

TL;DR: A random walk/diffusion theory-2-stage dynamic signal detection (2DSD) theory-that accounts for all 3 measures using a common underlying process that explains all known interrelationships between the 3 indices of performance.

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

Dynamic causal modelling.

TL;DR: As with previous analyses of effective connectivity, the focus is on experimentally induced changes in coupling, but unlike previous approaches in neuroimaging, the causal model ascribes responses to designed deterministic inputs, as opposed to treating inputs as unknown and stochastic.

A Theory of Memory Retrieval.

TL;DR: A theory of memory retrieval is developed and is shown to apply over a range of experimental paradigms, and it is noted that neural network models can be interfaced to the retrieval theory with little difficulty and that semantic memory models may benefit from such a retrieval scheme.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Neural Basis of Decision Making

TL;DR: This work focuses on simple decisions that can be studied in the laboratory but emphasize general principles likely to extend to other settings, including deliberation and commitment.

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.
