Cerebellum development during childhood and adolescence: a longitudinal morphometric MRI study (2009, background): “A similar pattern was seen in the cerebral cortex, where areas such as the prefrontal cortex thought to have appeared later in evolution also attained a mature state later in development (Fuster, 2002; Gogtay et al., 2004).”
Navigating the Affordance Landscape: Feedback Control as a Process Model of Behavior and Cognition. (2016, positive): “Brain Mechanisms Supporting Hierarchical Affordance Competition It has been suggested that the expansion of the frontal cortex, especially prominent among primates, made possible the extension of planning to more abstract and more temporally extended activity [27].”
Childhood poverty: specific associations with neurocognitive development. (2006, background): “Given the complex nature of SES and its correlates, the list of possible causes is long, including: physical health factors such as prenatal care, nutrition and lead exposure; psychological factors such as stress, parental availability and childrearing practices; and genetic factors.”
Tract Profiles of White Matter Properties: Automating Fiber-Tract Quantification (2012, result): “This theory is consistent with reports of late maturation of frontal lobe white matter and frontal lobe dependent cognitive skills [41,42,48].”
Socioeconomic Disparities Affect Prefrontal Function in Children (2009, background): “The human PFC has a prolonged period of postnatal development (e.g., Fuster, 2002; Casey, Giedd, & Thomas, 2000), and major stages of cognitive development are associated with development of the PFC ( Johnson, 1997).”
Whole-brain voxel-based statistical analysis of gray matter and white matter in temporal lobe epilepsy (2004, background): “, 1975; Young, 1993), which is crucial in cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and emotional behavior (Fuster, 2002; Milner et al., 1985; Squire and Zola-Morgan, 1988).”
The cognitive neuroscience of creativity (2004, background): “The cerebral cortex, and in particular the prefrontal cortex, is at the top of that hierarchy, representing the neural basis of higher cognitive functions (e.g., Frith & Dolan, 1996; Fuster, 2002).”
Influence of family socioeconomic status on IQ, language, memory and executive functions of Brazilian children (2016, background): “Such actions are self-organized, by evaluating their suitability and efficiency to the intended purpose, in order to elect the most efficient strategies, solving thus immediate and/or medium to long term problems (Banich 2009; Fuster 2002).”
Assessment of Hot and Cool Executive Function in Young Children: Age-Related Changes and Individual Differences (2005, result): “…were found for all four measures of EF, consistent with the notion that both hot and cool aspects of EF develop rapidly during the preschool years (e.g., Zelazo & Müller, 2002)—a period during which PFC as a whole undergoes considerable growth (e.g., see Diamond, 2002; Fuster, 2002, for reviews).”
Extinction circuits for fear and addiction overlap in prefrontal cortex. (2009, background): “These findings are consistent with a welldocumented role of the prefrontal cortex in executive function and emotional regulation (Miller 2000; Fuster 2002; Quirk and Beer 2006; Sotres-Bayon et al. 2006).”
Meta-analytic evidence for a superordinate cognitive control network subserving diverse executive functions (2012, background): “Recent views of the PFC highlight its role in higher cognitive functions by supporting coordinated activation of multiple brain areas within the “cognitive control network,” including the DLPFC, medial frontal cortex (including the anterior cingulate cortex [ACC]), parietal cortex, motor areas, and ”
Development of large-scale functional networks from birth to adulthood: a guide to neuroimaging literature (2017, background): “These areal boundaries appear very early in development (Kostovic et al., 1995) and each area is thought to make a distinct contribution to information processing (Cohen et al., 2008; Felleman and Van Essen, 1991; Fuster, 2002; O'Leary and Nakagawa, 2002; Sur and Rubenstein, 2005).”
