Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex, Working Memory, and Prospective Coding for Action [PDF]
The role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in the control of behavior remains a topic of ongoing controversy. The discovery of sustained neural discharge in monkey DLPFC neurons during the retention interval of delayed-response (DR) tasks suggested that this region is involved in on ...

Dorsolateral and ventromedial prefrontal cortex orchestrate normative choice [PDF]
Humans are noted for their capacity to over-ride self-interest in favor of normatively valued goals. We examined the neural circuitry that is causally involved in normative, fairness-related decisions by generating a temporarily diminished capacity for costly normative behavior, a 'deviant' case, through non-invasive brain stimulation (repetitive ...

Unique and shared roles of the posterior parietal and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in cognitive functions [PDF]
The dorsolateral prefrontal and posterior parietal cortex are two parts of a broader brain network involved in the control of cognitive functions such as working memory, spatial attention, and decision making.

The role of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in attentional bias [PDF]
The DLPFC is thought to be critically involved in maintaining attention away from behaviourally irrelevant information, and in the establishment of attentional control settings. These play an important role in the phenomenon of top-down bias to features in the visual field - also known as attentional bias.

The Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Acute and Chronic Pain [PDF]
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is a functionally and structurally heterogeneous region and a key node of several brain networks, implicated in cognitive, affective, and sensory processing. As such, the DLPFC is commonly activated in experimental pain studies, and shows abnormally increased function in chronic pain populations.

The Role of the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex for Speech and Language Processing [PDF]
This review article summarizes various functions of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) that are related to language processing. To this end, its connectivity with the left-dominant perisylvian language network was considered, as well as its interaction with other functional networks that, directly or indirectly, contribute to language ...

Comparison of Strategy Signals in the Dorsolateral and Orbital Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]
Abstract behavior-guiding rules and strategies allow monkeys to avoid errors in rarely encountered situations. In the present study, we contrasted strategy-related neuronal activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFdl) and the orbital prefrontal cortex (PFo) of rhesus monkeys.

Lie-Specific Involvement of Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Deception [PDF]
Lies are intentional distortions of event knowledge. No experimental data are available on manipulating lying processes. To address this issue, we stimulated the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Fifteen healthy volunteers were tested before and after tDCS (anodal, cathodal, and sham).

Functional differentiation within the monkey cortex as revealed by near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
The role of prefrontal cortex in working memory (WM) is well established. However, questions remain regarding the topography and “domain-specific differentiation” of different types of information processing in the cortex.
