A new method that merged artificial intelligence with electrical brain stimulation improved brain functions related to self-control and mental flexibility.
Neuroimaging can be used to assess a person's risk of suicidal behavior. Those with mood disorders, a history of suicidal thoughts, and those with a history of suicide attempts have less connectivity in the cognitive control network. They also have reduced connectivity between the cognitive control network and the default mode network.
Researchers investigate the teenage brain and answer questions as to why behaviors change so much during these years.
The activity of the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) during motivated control reflects the calculation of surprise. The findings take cognitive control research to new heights by providing insight into how the dACC works as a component of a brain network that supports motivated behaviors.
Deep brain stimulation improves performance on cognitive control tasks and increases theta oscillations in the medial, and lateral prefrontal cortex.
Researchers are embarking on a new project to better understand the mechanisms of cognitive control.They hope to generate a specific mathematical model for each individual's brain activity in order to understand how cognitive control differs between people.
Cognitive control training that focuses on important factors while ignoring distractions enhances information processing and enables the ability to "learn to learn".
A new study reveals how the brain manages to perform learned categorization while under stress.
A new study sheds light on why children born with very low birth weight often suffer from cognitive problems.
Scientists are beginning to understand the neuroscience behind sensory processing disorder and are developing new therapies to help those with SPD.
Researchers report two neural networks broadly overlap in people who intentionally let their minds wander.
A new study reports mothers who demonstrate better emotional control and problem solving abilities have a more positive influence on their child's behavior.
