Heterogeneity within the frontoparietal control network and its relationship to the default and dorsal attention networks
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Significance: The frontoparietal control network (FPCN) contributes to executive control, the ability to deliberately guide action based on goals. While the FPCN is often viewed as a unitary domain general system, it is possible that the FPCN contains a fine-grained internal organization, with separate zones involved in different types of executive control. Here, we use graph theory and meta-analytic functional profiling to demonstrate that the FPCN is composed of two separate subsystems: FPCN A is connected to the default network and is involved in the regulation of introspective processes, whereas FPCN B is connected to the dorsal attention network and is involved in the regulation of perceptual attention. These findings offer a distinct perspective on the systems-level circuitry underlying cognitive control.

Exteroceptive and interoceptive stimuli can activate lateral and medial frontoparietal networks in the brain that overlap with regions involved in the dorsal attentional network and the default mode network, respectively.
“Moreover, in addition to the prefrontal cortex, Dixon et al. (2018) suggests that exteroceptive and interoceptive stimuli can activate lateral and medial frontoparietal networks in the brain that overlap with regions involved in the dorsal attentional network and the default mode network, respectively.”

The paper reports that FPCN B is more strongly connected with the dorsal attention network, while FPCN A is more strongly connected with the default network; its Discussion also links them to perceptual attention and introspective thought, respectively. But the Differential Coupling Patterns section describes these networks as spatially segregated, not overlapping, and the paper does not establish that exteroceptive and interoceptive stimuli activate lateral and medial frontoparietal networks as claimed.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDixon et al. found in a meta-analysis that FPCN-A is more involved in mentalizing, emotional processing, and complex social reasoning than other FPCN regions.
“Moreover, Dixon et al. found in a meta-analysis that FPCN-A is more involved in mentalizing, emotional processing, and complex social reasoning than other regions of the FPCN, which is consistent with a role for SMG and DLPFC in representing idiosyncratic interpretations of an animated shapes movie.”

SMG and DLPFC belong to a proposed FPCN subnetwork, FPCN-A, which has been shown to be more highly correlated with the DMN across various tasks.
“In particular, both SMG and DLPFC are part of a proposed FPCN subnetwork, FPCN-A, that has been shown to be more highly correlated with DMN in a variety of tasks ranging from classic cognitive control tasks, resting state, social-cognitive tasks, and movie watching (Dixon et al., 2018).”

Although schema-reliance and associative strength vary across the spectrum of simulation tasks, neither process is unique to past or future simulation, and both remembering and imagining involve coupling of the DMN and frontoparietal control network.
“although schema-reliance and associative strength vary across this spectrum of simulation tasks, from past events through to novel or implausible future events, neither process is unique to the simulation of past or future events, and both remembering and imagining is associated with coupling of the DMN and frontoparietal control network (Dixon et al., 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
