Bilingual Minds (2009, background): “Braver, Reynolds, and Donaldson (2003) asked participants to classify words according to whether they referred to objects that were natural versus created or whether the objects referred to were large versus small.”
Anterior prefrontal cortex: insights into function from anatomy and neuroimaging (2004, background): “In one recent study, sustained aPFC activity was observed when volunteers were required to switch between two tasks within a single block of trials, but not during single-task block”
The necessity of rostrolateral prefrontal cortex for higher-level sequential behavior (2015, neutral): “Importantly, prior studies using non-sequential tasks have routinely observed a sustained function in RLPFC (Braver et al., 2003; Dosenbach et al., 2006; Koechlin et al., 1999, 2003) rather than the ramping function observed here.”
Activation of Right Inferior Frontal Gyrus during Response Inhibition across Response Modalities (2007, methodology): “The rightdominant activation, on the other hand, contrasts with frontoparietal activation in the left hemisphere implementing other cognitive processes such as cognitive set shifting (Asari et al., 2005; Barber & Carter, 2005; Derrfuss et al., 2005; Konishi et al., 2005; Brass & von Cramon, 2004; Co”
An fMRI study of violations of social expectations: When people are not who we expect them to be (2011, positive): “, TPJ bilaterally, MPFC and precuneus) and for a number of lateral prefrontal regions ostensibly involved in some forms of cognitive control (Aron et al., 2004; Braver et al., 2004; Cools et al., 2002; Ochsner and Gross, 2005) (Table 1 and Fig.”
The variable nature of cognitive control: A dual-mechanisms framework (2012, neutral): “BX trials in the AXCPT [17, 37], switch-costs in cued task-switching [26, 32], proportion congruence and related effects in the Stroop [55, 57], and “recent negative” interference in item recognition working memory [21].”
Task Switching: Mechanisms Underlying Rigid vs. Flexible Self-control (2009, background): “Bryck and Mayr (2005) provided additional evidence supporting this assumption.”
A core system for the implementation of task sets. (2006, methodology): “Much of the current literature about higher-order task-set control processes has been focused on the dACC/msFC, dlPFC, and aPFC (Botvinick et al., 2004; Braver et al., 2003; Rushworth et al., 2004; Sakai and Passingham, 2003).”
Between-Task Competition and Cognitive Control in Task Switching (2006, background): “…involved in higher-level, domain-general functions such as the coordination of multiple concurrent goals, such as may be involved in task-switching (Koechlin et al., 1999, 2003; Christoff and Gabrieli, 2000; Fletcher and Henson, 2001; O’Reilly et al., 2002; Braver et al., 2003; Buckner, 2003).”
Common and unique components of response inhibition revealed by fMRI (2005, background): “Perhaps the most obvious alternative is that the present study used a block design, and so activation may reflect both trialspecific processes and sustained control-related processes (Braver et al., 2003).”
