Aging and inhibitory control
… in working memory capacity, and a loss of inhibitory control. Although not inherently incompatible, each of the theories provides a unique interpretation of the observed pattern of psychological and neuronal data. To test the veracity of the inhibitory theory a series of experiments was …

Inhibitory Control of Muscle Activity in Sleep
In this thesis, I examined the inhibitory control of REM sleep motor activity using both a pharmacological rat model and a genetic mouse model. I characterized the role for GABA and glycine in mediating the REM-specific suppression of muscle activity as well as their involvement in regulating the …

A Multimodal Investigation of Age Differences in Inhibitory Control
Cognitive control – a set of mental processes that allow us to perform goal-directed actions and flexibly adapt our behavior under changing circumstances – is reduced in aging. Older age is also accompanied by changes in the structure and functioning of the frontoparietal network that supports …

Inhibitory Control of Contextual Fear Memory and Memory Specificity
… in the brain is mainly achieved by GABAergic inhibitory neurons which exert their effect by acting on multiple types of GABA receptors. In this dissertation, I examined the roles of specific types of GABAergic neurons and GABA receptors in learning and memory. The study consists of three major …

Resting-state Functional Connectivity Correlates of Inhibitory Control over Emotional Stimuli
<p>Inhibitory control is defined as the stopping or overriding of a mental process with or without intention. It is known as a motor process in which executive control suppresses an automated motor response. Currently, there is no existing research discussing the neural mechanisms of an emotional …

Individual Differences in Inhibitory Control Skills at Three Years of Age
… children participated in an investigation of inhibitory control (IC) at 3 years of age. Child IC was measured under various conditions in order to determine the impact that nonverbal and/or motivational task demands had on child IC task performance. Furthermore, task performance was examined …

Individual Differences in Inhibitory Control Skills at Four Years of Age
Inhibitory Control (IC), a vital facet of childhood development, involves the ability to suppress a dominant response, as well as the ability to suppress irrelevant thoughts and behaviors. This ability emerges during the first year of life and develops rapidly during the preschool years. A variety …

The Early Childhood Development of Inhibitory Control, Motor Control and Drawing Skills
Research has broadly shown that Inhibitory Control and drawing skills are directly associated in early childhood development. The current study extends this in three studies investigating the role of Motor Control in this relationship, and the differences between three different drawing skills in …

The Effect of Age-related Declines in Inhibitory Control on Audiovisual Speech Intelligibility
… Overall, younger adults demonstrated better inhibitory abilities and higher word identification performance than older adults. However, whereas no relationship was observed between inhibitory measures and word identification performance in younger adults, there was a significant relationship …

Cognitive Development in Late Childhood: An Examination of Working Memory and Inhibitory Control
An interactive framework of working memory and inhibitory control has been endorsed for examining cognitive development across the lifespan (Roberts & Pennington, 1996). According to this framework, the interaction between working memory and inhibitory control (WMIC) is necessary for adaptive daily …

INHIBITORY CONTROL AND ITS RELATION TO PERSONALITY/TEMPERAMENT, EXECUTIVE FUNCTION, AND THE BRAIN
<p>Inhibitory control, described as the ability to suppress one response in favor of a goal-directed response, is thought to play an important role in the development of emotional regulation as well as various forms of psychopathology, including ADHD. Up until very recently, inhibitory control has …

Inhibitory control mechanisms and their role in task switching: A multi-methodological approach
Executive control allows us to ignore distraction and switch between tasks in a flexible, yet organized fashion. While a hallmark of controlled behavior, distinctions among executive control processes are not thoroughly agreed upon. The present work explored the organization of two of these …

Development of Neuroconnectivity and Inhibitory Control: Relation to Social Cognition in Late Childhood
… on other cognitive processes, particularly inhibitory control, which allows for willful suppression of dominant responses. Many aspects of social behavior rely on inhibitory control to moderate impulsive or socially inappropriate behaviors and process complex perspective-taking. Furthermore, …

Functional MRI Activation of Inhibitory Control in Adolescents and Young Adults with Multiple Sclerosis
Inhibitory control, defined as the ability to withhold a response, is typically preserved in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), despite impairment in other executive functions. This study examined the concept of functional reorganization concerning inhibitory control using a simple Go/No-go …
