Cognitive control and right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex: Reflexive reorienting, motor inhibition, and action updating
Open accessAbstract
Delineating the functional organization of the prefrontal cortex is central to advancing models of goal‐directed cognition. Considerable evidence indicates that specific forms of cognitive control are associated with distinct subregions of the left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC), but less is known about functional specialization within the right VLPFC. We report a functional MRI meta‐analysis of two prominent theories of right VLPFC function: stopping of motor responses and reflexive orienting to abrupt perceptual onsets. Along with a broader review of right VLPFC function, extant data indicate that stopping and reflexive orienting similarly recruit the inferior frontal junction (IFJ), suggesting that IFJ supports the detection of behaviorally relevant stimuli. By contrast, other right VLPFC subregions are consistently active during motor inhibition, but not reflexive reorienting tasks, with posterior‐VLPFC being active during the updating of action plans and mid‐VLPFC responding to decision uncertainty. These results highlight the rich functional heterogeneity that exists within right VLPFC.

The anterior insula is associated with the integration of interoception and cognition, and the right anterior VLPFC with reflexive reorienting and response inhibition.
“The anterior insula is associated with the integration of interoception and cognition (Menon and Uddin, 2010), and the right anterior VLPFC with reflexive reorienting and response inhibition (Levy and Wagner, 2011).”
From Neural correlates of emotion acceptance<i>vs</i>worry or suppression in generalized anxiety disorder (2017) · cites this paper as Levy and Wagner, 2011
Only the right anterior VLPFC claim is attributed to Levy and Wagner; the anterior insula claim has a different citation. In “Right VLPFC: beyond stopping and attention” (page unavailable), the paper reports little evidence that right anterior VLPFC was involved in the reorienting or inhibition tasks. It instead identifies other right VLPFC subregions recruited by those tasks. (LLM, conf=0.90)

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.
