In less than three decades, the concept “cerebellar neurocognition” has evolved from a mere
afterthought to an entirely new and multifaceted area of neuroscientific research. A close …

Patients with cerebellar damage often present with the cerebellar motor syndrome of
dysmetria, dysarthria and ataxia, yet cerebellar lesions can also result in the cerebellar …

The right middle fontal gyrus (MFG) has been proposed to be a site of convergence of the
dorsal and ventral attention networks, by serving as a circuit-breaker to interrupt ongoing …

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

Anatomical, clinical and imaging findings suggest that the cerebellum is engaged in
cognitive and affective functions as well as motor control. Evidence from converging …

Working memory subsumes the capability to memorize, retrieve and utilize information for a
limited period of time which is essential to many human behaviours. Moreover, impairments …

Executive functions (EFs) make possible mentally playing with ideas; taking the time to think
before acting; meeting novel, unanticipated challenges; resisting temptations; and staying …

Survival can depend on the ability to change a current course of action to respond to
potentially advantageous or threatening stimuli. This" reorienting" response involves the …

Clinical, experimental and neuroimaging studies indicate that the cerebellum is involved in
neural processes beyond the motor domain. Cerebellar somatotopy has been shown for …

Evidence for a role of the human cerebellum in cognitive functions comes from anatomical,
