Executive Control and the Frontal Lobe: Current Issues

Executive Control and the Frontal Lobe: Current Issues edited by Werner X. Schneider, Adrian M. Owen, John Duncan.

While the importance of the prefrontal cortex for 'higher-order'cognitive functions is largely undisputed, no consensus has been reached regarding the precise fractionation of these functions. For example, although some degree of regional specialization within the frontal lobe seems inevit...
