Abstract

An event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging study of prefrontal cortex was conducted during which subjects performed a visual "oddball" target detection task. Exemplars of three stimulus categories were presented at a rate of one per 1.5 sec for 10 runs, each consisting of 132 trials. Standards were color squares of varying sizes that were presented on approximately 92% of trials. Targets were color circles of varying sizes presented irregularly on approximately 4% of trials. Novels were pictures of everyday objects that were also presented irregularly on approximately 4% of trials. Ten subjects participated in two separate sessions in which they were required to count mentally or to push a button whenever a target appeared. Targets evoked activation within prefrontal cortex, primarily within the middle frontal gyri (MFG). This MFG activation did not differ as a function of the required response. Novels did not evoke significant activity within this region despite evidence from a separate behavioral and event-related potential study demonstrating their strong influence on processing. In additional imaging sessions with two subjects, the rules were reversed to require a button press whenever an object, but not a circle, appeared. These former novels now evoked activation in the MFG, but the former target circles did not. These experiments indicate that MFG activation is reliably evoked by exemplars from arbitrary stimulus categories that are mapped by experimental rules onto an arbitrary covert or overt response.

  • Recent studies designed to isolate neural systems mediating specific aspects of executive function have shown that certain regions, such as dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and striatum, seem intricately involved in some aspects of executive function tasks but not others.

    “Recent studies designed to isolate the neural systems mediating specific aspects of EF have shown that certain regions, such as the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and striatum, seem intricately involved in some aspects of EF tasks but not others (28–30).”

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.
