Age-related Changes in Brain Activity across the Adult Lifespan (2006, background): “…anterior medial frontal activity during self-reference tasks (Fossati et al., 2003; Craik et al., 1999) and posterior cingulate activity during visuospatial attention tasks (Small et al., 2003), suggesting a role for these regions in monitoring the internal and external environments, respectively.”
A Brain Mechanism for Facilitation of Insight by Positive Affect (2009, unknown): “On the other hand, the posterior cingulate is thought to be involved in visuospatial expectancy (Small et al., 2003), and the anterior cingulate is more likely to be involved in cognitive control and possibly in switching between solution candidates (or other thought processes), which is likely an i”
Functional Specialization within Rostral Prefrontal Cortex (Area 10): A Meta-analysis (2006, methodology): “Furthermore, the suggestion by Christoff, Ream, et al. that all regions of BA 10 are specialized for the processing of self-generated information is hard to reconcile with the findings of Gilbert, Frith, et al. (2005) and Small et al. (2003).”
Progressive increase of frontostriatal brain activation from childhood to adulthood during event‐related tasks of cognitive control (2006, background): “Posterior and anterior cingulate form part of the midline attentional system whereby posterior cingulate is particularly relevant for the dynamic reallocation of visual-spatial attention [Mesulam et al., 2001; Small et al., 2003].”
Functional grouping and cortical-subcortical interactions in emotion: A meta-analysis of neuroimaging studies (2008, unknown): “, 1997) or in allocating spatial attention (Mesulam et al., 2001; Small et al., 2003).”
The gateway hypothesis of rostral prefrontal cortex (area 10) function. (2007, result): “Ref. [ 52 ]). However, here lies the largest apparent contradiction between this account and some others.”
Cerebral correlates of alerting, orienting and reorienting of visuospatial attention: an event-related fMRI study (2004, background): “A recent event-related fMRI study that dissociated validly cued trials with reaction time benefits from those without benefits also supports the suggestion of intraparietal down-regulation under conditions of spatial orienting (Small et al., 2003).”
A new neural framework for visuospatial processing (2011, background): “Activity in the region is also correlated with the speed of target detection 121 and the increase in that speed for cued targets 122 , suggesting that it has a role in the allocation of visual attention throughout a display in response to cues.”
The neural bases of cognitive conflict and control in moral judgment. (2004, background): “This interpretation draws converengagement of brain areas commonly associated with gent evidence from a recent study of spatial attention deliberative thought processes strengthens this view. ( Small et al., 2003 ).”
