The relations among inhibition and interference control functions: a latent-variable analysis. (2004, methodology): “(Nigg, 2000, p. 222) Reflecting these differences in definitions, a number of tasks have been used to tap these processes (Kok, 1999; Nigg, 2001).”
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): “Nigg (2000, 2001), following earlier authors (Derryberry & Rothbart, 1997; Eisenberg et al., 1997; Rosenberg & Innate and unconditioned response Child reaches directly for an object rather than around an obstacle; attention is captured by a looming object Reflexes Startle to a loud noise Single…”
The functional architecture of human empathy. (2004, background): “We argue that empathy requires some form of active inhibitory mechanism (i.e., the deliberate suppression of a cognition or response to achieve an internally represented goal [Nigg, 2001]) and the contribution of the prefrontal cortex has an essential role in this regulation process (Fuster, 1989).”
A computational model of inhibitory control in frontal cortex and basal ganglia. (2011, background): “…these include the right inferior frontal gyrus (rIFG; Aron, Fletcher, Bullmore, Sahakian, & Robbins, 2003; Chambers et al., 2007; Sakagami et al., 2001; Xue, Aron, & Poldrack, 2008), the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC; Funahashi, Chafee, & Goldman-Rakic, 1993; Johnston & Everling,…”
Neuropsychological Analyses of Comorbidity Between Reading Disability and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: In Search of the Common Deficit (2005, background): “A large body of research indicates that groups with ADHD differ significantly from groups without ADHD on a variety of neurocognitive measures (see reviews by Barkley, 1997a, 1997b; Nigg, 2000, 2001; Pennington, 2002; Pennington & 40 WILLCUTT ET AL.”

Reported self-control is not meaningfully associated with inhibition-related executive function: A Bayesian analysis (2018, background): “in cross-sectional designs to assess individual differences in inhibition and impulsivity (Davidson, Amso, Anderson, & Diamond, 2006; Hall, 2012; Nigg, 2001; Snyder, 2012).”
Verbal Memory Interference in Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Meta-Analytic Review (2022, methodology): “Behavioral inhibition (BI) reflects the cognitive ability to suppress irrelevant information from interfering with a primary task or goal (Friedman & Miyake, 2004; Nigg, 2001), and is often impaired in ADHD populations (Alderson et al.”
Models of Response Inhibition in the Stop-Signal and Stop-Change Paradigms (2008, background): “…disorder (e.g., Nigg, 2001; Oosterlaan et al., 1998; Schachar and Logan, 1990), obsessive-compulsive disorder (e.g., Chamberlain et al., 2006; Menzies et al., 2007; Penades et al., 2007), and substance abuse disorders (e.g., Monterosso et al., 2005; Nigg et al., 2006).”
