Striatum-Centered Fiber Connectivity Is Associated with the Personality Trait of Cooperativeness. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Cooperativeness is an essential behavioral trait evolved to facilitate group living. Social and cognitive mechanisms involved in cooperation (e.g., motivation, reward encoding, action evaluation, and executive functions) are sub-served by the striatal ...

Top-Down Control of Motor Cortex Ensembles by Dorsomedial Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]
, 2006 SummaryDorsomedial prefrontal cortex is critical for the temporal control of behavior. Dorsomedial prefrontal cortex might alter neuronal activity in areas such as motor cortex to inhibit temporally inappropriate responses.

Neuropsychology of prefrontal cortex
Indian Journal of Psychiatry, 2008 The history of clinical frontal lobe study is long and rich which provides valuable insights into neuropsychologic determinants of functions of prefrontal cortex (PFC). PFC is often classified as multimodal association cortex as extremely processed information from various sensory modalities is integrated here in a precise fashion to form the ...

Biasing the perception of ambiguous vocal affect: a TMS study on frontal asymmetry [PDF]
, 2013 Several sources of evidence point toward a link between asymmetry of prefrontal brain activity and approach–withdrawal tendencies. Here, we tested the causal nature of this link and examined if the categorization of an ambiguous approach- or withdrawal ...

Brain, 1999 By Joaquin M. Fuster. 1997. Pp. 352. Philadelphia: Lippincott-Raven.Price £60. ISBN 0-397-51849-8. In the first edition of The Prefrontal Cortex the author set out his hypothesis concerning the functions of the prefrontal association cortex. These are conceived as being not modality specific but as integrative in nature, orchestrating the \`sensory ...
