In our TICS Review in 2004, we proposed that a sector of the right inferior frontal cortex
(rIFC) in humans is critical for inhibiting response tendencies. Here we survey new …

Classically, the basal ganglia have been considered to have a role in producing habitual
and goal-directed behaviours. In this article, we review recent evidence that expands this …

In many circumstances alternative courses of action and thoughts have to be inhibited to
allow the emergence of goal-directed behavior. However, this has not been the accepted …

A better understanding of the neural systems underlying impulse control is important for
psychiatry. Although most impulses are motivational or emotional rather than motoric per se …

The subthalamic nucleus (STN) of the basal ganglia appears to have a potent role in action
and cognition. Anatomical and imaging studies show that different frontal cortical areas …

The direct and indirect efferent pathways from striatum ultimately reconverge to influence
basal ganglia output nuclei, which in turn regulate behavior via thalamocortical and …

Background: Several current theories emphasize the role of cognitive control in addiction.
The present review evaluates neural deficits in the domains of inhibitory control and error …

A growing body of preclinical evidence indicates that addiction to cocaine is associated with
neuroadaptive changes in frontostriatal brain systems. Human studies in cocaine-dependent …

Inappropriate response tendencies may be stopped via a specific fronto/basal
ganglia/primary motor cortical network. We sought to characterize the functional role of two …
