Continual learning of context-dependent processing in neural networks (2018, background): “The PFC receives sensory inputs as well as contextual information, which enables it to choose sensory features most relevant to the present task to guide action[4, 5, 31].”
Simple Substrates for Complex Cognition (2008, background): “This computational challenge, and the resulting possibility of error, provides a spur towards automatization and the learning and acquisition of habitual competence.”
Interactions between frontal cortex and basal ganglia in working memory: A computational model (2001, background): “However, if the subject last saw a 2, the target sequence is B–Y.1 Thus, the task demand stimuli define an outer loop of active maintenance (maintenanceof task demands), within which there can be a number of inner loops of active maintenance for the A–”
Individual Differences in Preschoolers' Self-Regulation and Theory of Mind (2008, background): “…is broadly defined as the control or organization of behavior, or the active suppression process engaged for the purposes of pursuing a goal (Fuster, 1997; Kopp, 1989; Posner & Rothbart, 2007), and involves control over a variety of processes, including emotion (i.e., emotion regulation),…”
