The role of the prefrontal cortex in dynamic filtering
Open accessAbstract
Functional neuroimaging and neuropsychological methods have broadened our understanding of the human prefrontal cortex. Converging evidence suggests that this brain region contributes to executive control of information processing. Both cognitive and neural-based models have attempted to delineate the manner in which the prefrontal cortex mediates executive control. An analysis of these findings and models suggests four prominent aspects of executive control—selecting, maintaining, updating, and rerouting information processing. These four aspects are couched in terms of dynamic filtering theory, which proposes that the prefrontal cortex acts as a selective gating or filtering mechanism that controls information processing.

Higher order cognitive control has been shown to influence sensory processing.
“Sensory processing may be associated with executive function because sensory processing has been shown to be influenced by higher order cognitive control [21, 22].”
From Sensory processing in preterm preschoolers and its association with executive function (2015) · cites this paper as [21]
Executive function can exert top-down control over sensory processing and influence which sensory stimuli gain conscious awareness.
“It is likely that executive function can also exert top-down control over sensory processing and influence which sensory stimuli gain conscious awareness [21, 22].”

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.
