... An individual is typically considered an adult at age 18, although the age of adulthood varies for different legal and social policies. A key question is how cognitive capacities relevant to these policies change with development. The current study used an emotional go/no-go paradigm and functional ...

... In the classic taxonomy of episodic memory [1,2], what, where and when, have been traditionally regarded as equally important properties of an episodic memory [2,4].

TO THE EDITOR: I agree with the gist of the authors’ Viewpoint (5) but not that the PFC can “sustain exercise despite severe deficiencies in motor control.” PFC function is well described in the cognitive/emotional/behavioral literature (2), and we assigned a similar role to the PFC in our review, a ...

Executive functions



Executive functions (also known as cognitive control and supervisory attentional system) is an umbrella term for the management (regulation, control) of cognitive processes, including working memory, reasoning, task flexibility, and problem solving as well as planning and execution.The executive system is a theorized cognitive system in psychology that controls and manages other cognitive processes, such as executive functions. The prefrontal areas of the frontal lobe are necessary but not solely sufficient for carrying out these functions.
