The human frontal cortex helps mediate working memory, a system that is used for
temporary storage and manipulation of information and that is involved in many higher …

Positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
have been extensively used to explore the functional neuroanatomy of cognitive functions …

Classic cognitive theory conceptualizes executive functions as involving multiple specific
domains, including initiation, inhibition, working memory, flexibility, planning, and vigilance …

The superior frontal gyrus (SFG) is located at the superior part of the prefrontal cortex and is
involved in a variety of functions, suggesting the existence of functional subregions …

The human dorsal frontal cortex has been associated with the most sophisticated aspects of
cognition, including those that are thought to be especially refined in humans. Here we used …

The authors investigated the distinctiveness and interrelationships among visuospatial and
verbal memory processes in short-term, working, and long-term memories in 345 adults …

Though many neuroscientific methods have been brought to bear in the search for functional
specializations within prefrontal cortex, little consensus has emerged. To assess the …

We performed meta-analyses on 60 neuroimaging (PET and fMRI) studies of working
