“…In humans, brain imaging has revealed that this area of the PFC is activated in many different experimental paradigms, each revealing a specific role in meeting the cognitive challenge associated with a particular task. Thus, BA46-9/46 has been reported to engage in tasks requiring, strategic deception in a two-person bargaining game (Bhatt et al, 2010 ), concentration (Koch et al, 2006 ), sustained monitoring and detection of visuomotor incongruence (Schnell et al, 2007 ), arithmetic processing (Menon et al, 2002 ), sustained attention to motion (Thakral and Slotnick, 2009 ), imaging moving stimuli (Roland and GulyĂĄs, 1995 ; Goebel et al, 1998 ; Schendan and Stern, 2007 ), counteracting susceptibility to proactive interference (Wolf et al, 2010 ), integration demand and expectation of integration (De Pisapia et al, 2007 ), high-level cognitive planning and mental manipulation (Amiez and Petrides, 2007 ), maintenance of WM and concentration requiring mental effort (Zarahn et al, 2005 ), decisional processes governing oculomotor behavior (Pierrot-Deseilligny et al, 2005 ), language switching (Wang et al, 2007 ), maintenance of task performance in Touretteâs syndrome (Marsh et al, 2007 ), selection from WM and of movements in willed task actions (Rowe et al, 2000 ), active maintenance of distractor-resistant memory (Sakai et al, 2002 ) and data-driven scientific discovery (Zhong et al, 2011 ). Activation of the DLPFC or middle frontal gyrus (often interpreted as homologous to BA46-9/46) has been reported when a task required executive control (KĂŒbler et al, 2006 ), low confidence, high risk decisions requiring concentration (Fleck et al, 2006 ), verbal fluency (Abrahams et al, 2003 ), manipulation of information (Marvel and Desmond, 2010 ), the mental rotation of objects (Just et al, 2001 ), automatic retrieval of technical problems and breaking of mental sets (Dandan et al, 2013 ), self-control (Friese et al, 2013 ), higher levels of cognitive control/processing (Volle et al, 2008 ), a domain-independent, extra-mnemonic device to focus attention on items to be remembered (Curtis and DâEsposito, 2003 ), inhibition of the stereotyped responses (Kadota et al, 2010 ), higher-order rule switching (Yoshida et al, 2010 ) and critical cognitive control (Koric et al, 2012 ).…”
