Emotion and motivation have crucial roles in determining human behavior. Yet, how they
interact with cognitive control functions is less understood. Here, the basic elements of a …

This review surveys human event-related brain potential (ERP) and event-related magnetic
field (ERF) approaches to psychopharmacology and psychopathology, and the way in which …

Cognition and emotion interact to determine ongoing behaviors. In this study, we
investigated the interaction between cognition and emotion during response inhibition using …

Cognitive control processes involving prefrontal cortex allow humans to overrule and inhibit
habitual responses to optimize performance in new and challenging situations, and …

Successful behavior requires a finely-tuned interplay of initiating and inhibiting motor
programs to react effectively to constantly changing environmental demands. One …

A growing number of studies have investigated how motivation interacts with particular
cognitive functions, including attention, working memory, and other executive functions. In …

Deficits in response inhibition and heightened impulsivity have been linked to psychiatric
disorders and aggression. They have been investigated in clinical groups as well as …

Behavioral adjustments require interactions between distinct modes of cognitive control and
response inhibition. Hypothetically, fast and global inhibition is exerted in the reactive …

Response inhibition mechanisms are mediated via cortical and subcortical networks. At the
cortical level, the superior frontal gyrus, including the supplementary motor area (SMA) and …

Response inhibition is an important cognitive-control function that allows for already-initiated
or habitual behavioral responses to be promptly withheld when needed. A typical paradigm …
