Theory Change in Cognitive Neurobiology: The Case of the Orbitofrontal Cortex. [PDF]
ABSTRACT How do theories of the functions of parts of the brain change? I argue that computational hypotheses help explain the nature of theorizing in cognitive neurobiology. I will focus on the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a frontal region of the brain implicated in an array of cognitive functions.
