This narrative review addresses the neural bases of two executive functions: criterion
setting, that is, the capacity to flexibly set up and select task rules and associations between …

Whether inhibition is a unitary or multifaceted construct is still an open question. To clarify
the electrophysiological distinction among the different types of inhibition, we used a …

The current study investigated behavioral and electrophysiological (event-related potential;
ERP) differences associated with task switching in a sample of young and older monolingual …

Executive functions refer to high-level cognitive processes that, by operating on lower-level
mental processes, flexibly regulate and control our thoughts and goal-directed behavior …

Task‐switching paradigms, which involve task repetitions and between‐task switches, have
long been used as a benchmark of cognitive control processes. When mixed and single …

Typically, in task-switching contexts individuals are slower and less accurate when
repeating a task in mixed blocks compared to single-task blocks (mixing cost) and when …

Although it is increasingly recognized that evaluation is a key phase for a two-fold creativity
model, the neural model is not yet well understood. To this end, we constructed a theoretical …

Numerous studies have explored the neural mechanisms related to task switching or rule
shifting, but few have revealed the neural substrates related to rule shifting at different …

Conflict-control is a core function of cognitive control. Although numerous studies have
considered cognitive control to be domain-general, the shared and distinct brain responses …

The ability to flexibly switch between tasks is a hallmark of cognitive control. Despite
previous studies that have investigated whether different task-switching types would be …
