Examining the effects of active versus inactive bilingualism on executive control in a carefully matched non-immigrant sample (2015, positive): “general intelligence; Duncan, 2010). Miyake et al. (2000) reconciled the unity and diversity accounts. Using a latent variable analysis across various executive control tasks, they argued that there are three subcomponents: updating, inhibition, and shifting (also called ‘task switching’). The three”
Motivation and cognitive control: from behavior to neural mechanism. (2015, background): “…in reward and motivation, effortbased decision making, and cognitive control function dorsal anterior cingulate and presupplementary cortices, dorsal premotor cortex, the anterior insula, and the intraparietal cortex (Cole & Schneider 2007, Duncan 2010, Niendam et al. 2012, Power & Petersen 2013).”
Broad domain generality in focal regions of frontal and parietal cortex (2013, methodology): “We will refer to these regions as the multiple-demand or MD system, following Duncan (4).”

Process Overlap Theory: A Unified Account of the General Factor of Intelligence (2016, background): “The same areas that compose the “cognitive control network” have also been labeled the “multiple demand system” in order to directly refer to the fact that they are involved in diverse cognitive activities (Duncan, 2010).”
Cognition in skilled action : meshed control and the varieties of skill experience (2016, background): “Some of the primary functions that have been associated with cognitive control in this tradition include controlling attention, the active maintenance and processing of information (working memory), the flexible integration of information related to the current situation and activities, setting and ”
