Cognitive control mechanisms resolve conflict through cortical amplification of task-relevant information

T. Egner, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Medicine
Nature Neuroscience
6 November 2005

A prominent model of how the brain regulates attention proposes that the anterior cingulate cortex monitors the occurrence of conflict between incompatible response tendencies and signals this… Expand

The neural correlates and functional integration of cognitive control in a Stroop task

T. Egner, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Medicine
NeuroImage
15 January 2005

We collected event-related fMRI data on a color-word naming Stroop task and found distinct fronto-parietal networks of current trial conflict detection and conflict adaptation through cognitive control. Expand

fMRI Evidence for Cortical Modification during Learning of Mandarin Lexical Tone

Y. Wang, J. Sereno, A. Jongman, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Medicine
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience
1 October 2003

Functional magnetic resonance imaging was employed before and after six native English speakers completed lexical tone training as part of a program to learn Mandarin as a second language.… Expand

Intentional false responding shares neural substrates with response conflict and cognitive control

J. M. Nuñez, B. Casey, T. Egner, T. Hare, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Medicine
NeuroImage
1 March 2005

The ability to deceive others is a high-level social and cognitive function. Expand

Neural Integration of Top-Down Spatial and Feature-Based Information in Visual Search

T. Egner, Jim M. Monti, E. Trittschuh, C. Wieneke, J. Hirsch, M-Marsel Mesulam
Psychology, Medicine
The Journal of Neuroscience
11 June 2008

Visual search is aided by previous knowledge regarding distinguishing features and probable locations of a sought-after target. However, how the human brain represents and integrates concurrent… Expand

Separate conflict-specific cognitive control mechanisms in the human brain

T. Egner, M. Delano, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Computer Science
NeuroImage
1 April 2007

We propose a non-centralized, modular architecture of cognitive control, where separate control resources operate in parallel, and are recruited in a context-sensitive manner. Expand

Neural Dynamics of Rejection Sensitivity

E. Kross, T. Egner, K. Ochsner, J. Hirsch, G. Downey
Psychology, Computer Science
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience
1 June 2007

We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to explore whether individual differences in RS are mediated by differential recruitment of brain regions involved in emotional appraisal and/or cognitive control. Expand

The spatial resolution capacity of human foveal retina

J. Hirsch, C. Curcio
Physics, Medicine
Vision Research
1989

An image on the retina of a human eye enters the visual system through an array of photoreceptors that sets the boundaries on the spatial detail available for neural representation. In order to… Expand

The dorsal medial frontal cortex is sensitive to time on task, not response conflict or error likelihood

J. Grinband, Judith Savitskaya, T. Wager, T. Teichert, V. Ferrera, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Computer Science
NeuroImage
15 July 2011

The dorsal medial frontal cortex (dMFC), including the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and the supplementary motor area, is highly active during choice behavior, even when no decisions are made. Expand

Detection of time-varying signals in event-related fMRI designs

J. Grinband, T. Wager, M. Lindquist, V. Ferrera, J. Hirsch
Psychology, Computer Science
NeuroImage
15 November 2008

In neuroimaging research on attention, cognitive control, decision-making, and other areas where response time (RT) is a critical variable, the temporal variability associated with the decision is often assumed to be inconsequential to the hemodynamic response (HDR). Expand
