The complexity of the behaviour described by the term “prospective memory” meant that it
was not at all clear, when the earliest studies were conducted, that this would prove a fruitful …

Evidence for developmental aspects of fear-targets and anxiety suggests a complex but
stable pattern whereby specific kinds of fears emerge at different periods of development …

The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is a central part of the default mode network (DMN) and
part of the structural core of the brain. Although the PCC often shows consistent deactivation …

Humans can vividly imagine possible future events. This faculty, episodic prospection,
allows the simulation of distant outcomes and desires. Here, we provide evidence for the …

The ability to mentally simulate possible futures (episodic future thinking) is of fundamental
importance for various aspects of human cognition and behavior, but precisely how humans …

Areas associated with the default mode network (DMN) are substantially similar to those
associated with meditation practice. However, no studies on DMN connectivity during resting …

Much of humans' success rests on foresight, the ability to predict what will happen or what is
needed in the future. Surprisingly little is known about how this faculty develops. In three …

Mental simulations are often focused on a goal in the future or a problem to be solved.
Recent neuroimaging studies have associated mental simulations of the future with default …

It has recently been suggested that brain areas crucial for mentalizing, including the medial
prefrontal cortex (mPFC), are not activated exclusively during mentalizing about the …
