The hierarchical organization of the lateral prefrontal cortex.
Higher-level cognition depends on the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC), but its functional organization has remained elusive. An influential proposal is that the LPFC is organized hierarchically whereby progressively rostral areas of the LPFC process/represent increasingly abstract information facilitating efficient and flexible cognition. However, support for this theory has been limited. Here...
متن کاملLateral prefrontal cortex: architectonic and functional organization.
A comparison of the architecture of the human prefrontal cortex with that of the macaque monkey showed a very similar architectonic organization in these two primate species. There is no doubt that the prefrontal cortical areas of the human brain have undergone considerable development, but it is equally clear that the basic architectonic organization is the same in the two species. Thus, a com...

15 صفحه اولHuman Thought and the Lateral Prefrontal Cortex
Human thought is a remarkable evolutionary achievement and one of our species’ defining abilities. It has been closely linked to the prefrontal cortex (PFC) by converging evidence from a wide range of disciplines, from phylogenetic and ontogenetic development, to patient studies and single-cell recordings, to modern neuroimaging. Here I review work on the links between the lateral PFC and two d...
متن کاملThe Function and Organization of Lateral Prefrontal Cortex: A Test of Competing Hypotheses
The present experiment tested three hypotheses regarding the function and organization of lateral prefrontal cortex (PFC). The first account (the information cascade hypothesis) suggests that the anterior-posterior organization of lateral PFC is based on the timing with which cue stimuli reduce uncertainty in the action selection process. The second account (the levels-of-abstraction hypothesis...
