The role of prefrontal cortex in cognitive control and executive function (2021, methodology): “‘s [137] meta-analytic study of 193 neuroimaging fMRI studies of EF showed broad patterns of activation across the lateral and medial PFC, including regions BA-9 and BA-46 (dlPFC) and BA-32 (rostral ACC), as well as both superior and inferior regions of the parietal lobes for tasks with predominantl”
Intrinsic architecture underlying the relations among the default, dorsal attention, and frontoparietal control networks of the human brain (2012, background): “We have demonstrated that a third, spatially interposed, “frontoparietal control” network (Niendam et al., 2012; Vincent, Kahn, Snyder, Raichle, & Buckner, 2008) plays a role in goal-directed cognition by flexibly coupling with either the default or dorsal attention network (Spreng & Schacter,…”
Nurturing Nature: How Brain Development Is Inherently Social and Emotional, and What This Means for Education (2019, background): “The Executive Control Network facilitates attention, allowing people to hold information in mind, shift strategies or approaches as necessary, and focus on the completion of goal-directed tasks (Beaty, Benedek, Kaufman, & Silvia, 2015; Niendam et al., 2012; Seeley et al., 2007).”
Broad domain generality in focal regions of frontal and parietal cortex (2013, neutral): “Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 107(25):11163–11170.”
The expected value of control: An integrative theory of anterior cingulate cortex function (2013, positive): “Numerous meta-analyses of the neuroimaging literature have confirmed the dACC’s involvement in controldemanding tasks (Nee et al., 2007; Niendam et al., 2012; Ridderinkhof et al., 2004; Shackman et al., 2011), and these have been supplemented by evidence of a causal relationship between dACC and…”
Towards a Universal Taxonomy of Macro-scale Functional Human Brain Networks (2019, positive): “…increased demands on moment-to-moment adjustments are associated with phasic activity in midcingulate and anterior insula (Wilk et al. 2012) is (Niendam et al. 2012). d Fronto-parietal network (yellow) (Gordon et al. 2017c) consistent with the conceptualization of the midcingulo-insular…”
A Correspondence between Individual Differences in the Brain's Intrinsic Functional Architecture and the Content and Form of Self-Generated Thoughts (2014, background): “This network is similar to the fronto-parietal control network [93]: a neural system that is important in engaging controlled processing across a wide range of different external tasks”
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).”
The differentiation of executive functions in middle and late childhood: A longitudinal latent-variable analysis (2014, background): “…development of abilities specific to each single executive function, possibly because the prefrontal cortex (a region of the brain that is commonly implicated in executive functioning, Niendam et al., 2012) has become functionally organised into fractionated systems by this age (Tsujimoto).”
Annual Research Review: On the relations among self-regulation, self-control, executive functioning, effortful control, cognitive control, impulsivity, risk-taking, and inhibition for developmental psychopathology (2016, neutral): “Thus, despite a close relation to EF, cognitive control is narrower than EF with a particular emphasis on resource allocation, information maintenance (working memory), and executive attention, rather than complex cognition (Botvinick & Cohen, 2014; Niendam et al., 2012).”
The wandering brain: Meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies of mind-wandering and related spontaneous thought processes (2015, positive): “The frontoparietal control network plays a central role in goal-directed cognition (Niendam et al., 2012).”
