“…Arousal makes an important contribution to the conceptual space illustrated in Figure 2 because it modulates the homeostasis of the executive (see Arnsten, 2009 for a review) and attentional networks (see Coull, 1998 and Aston-Jones and Cohen, 2005 for review) via the dopaminergic and noradrenergic pathways. For instance, both extremes of low (Harrivel et al, 2013;Durantin et al, 2015) and high arousal can disengage the DLPFC (Goldberg et al, 1998;Arnsten, 2009;Qin et al, 2009;Causse et al, 2013;Durantin et al, 2014;Fairclough et al, 2019) and impair performance (see Figure 3 for summary). Similarly, low (Dehais et al, 2018) and high levels of arousal (Hancock and Warm, 1989;Tracy et al, 2000;Pecher et al, 2011) can alter the interactions between the dorsal and ventral attentional networks and indistinctly that lead either to inattentional phenomena (Molloy et al, 2015;Todd et al, 2005) or effort withdrawal (Oei et al, 2012;Dehais et al, 2015).…”
