The role of stimulus salience and attentional capture across the neural hierarchy in a stop-signal taskCarsten N Boehler
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, United States of America
PLoS ONE 6:e26386. 2011
..Activity profiles in frontal areas, in turn, were activated mainly by task-relevant Stop-trials, presumably reflecting a combination of triggered top-down attentional influences and inhibitory motor-control processes...
The influence of different Stop-signal response time estimation procedures on behavior-behavior and brain-behavior correlationsC Nicolas Boehler
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Duke University, Durham, NC, USA
Behav Brain Res 229:123-30. 2012
..In sum, the current results highlight that different SSRT-estimation procedures can strongly influence the distribution of SSRT values across subjects, which in turn can ramify into correlational analyses with other parameters...
The influence of reward associations on conflict processing in the Stroop taskRuth M Krebs
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, USA
Cognition 117:341-7. 2010
..These observations imply that the prospect of reward enhances the processing of task-relevant stimulus information, whereas incongruent reward-related information in a task-irrelevant dimension can impede task performance...
