Neural Mechanisms Mediating the Effects of Food Cues and Acute Exercise: a functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Functional Connectivity Investigation
… the dorsal anterior cingulate (dorsal ACC), a frontal attention processing area, and the nucleus accumbens, a central reward processing area. Moreover, we conducted functional connectivity analysis to examine other areas of the brain that were positively or negatively correlated with these two …

Impulsivity and Reward Sensitivity: Attentional and Emotional Factors Underlying Stimulus-Reward Learning
… may be linked, consistent with evidence that the orbital frontal cortex (OFC) is implicated in both processes. This study examined the relationship between impulsive traits, assessed by the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS) and the Eysenck (EIQ), and performance on three behavioral tasks that …

INHIBITORY CONTROL AND ITS RELATION TO PERSONALITY/TEMPERAMENT, EXECUTIVE FUNCTION, AND THE BRAIN
… between inhibitory control and the superior frontal cortex (SFC) and orbital frontal cortex (OFC) volumes. In order to assess subareas of the OFC and SFC, an innovative parcellation method was used. Results suggested that the temperament and executive function measures of inhibitory control …

Assessing the effects of adolescent PCB exposure on executive functions in humans and animals
… are mediated to a large extent by the prefrontal cortex (PFC). The dopamine (DA) system is a neurochemical system thought to play a critical role in modulating these cognitive functions, and the cognitive deficits seen with early PCB exposure may be mediated by DA dysfunction. Previous PCB …
