Comparing alternative metrics to assess performance on the Iowa Gambling TaskDavid A Gansler
Department of Psychology, Suffolk University, 41 Temple Street, Boston, MA 02114, USA
J Clin Exp Neuropsychol 33:1040-8. 2011..Future research with an eye to modifying the paradigm and/or administration procedures to increase intertrial consistency might also give a needed boost to construct and criterion validity...
Hierarchical organization of cortical morphology of decision-making when deconstructing Iowa Gambling Task performance in healthy adultsDavid A Gansler
Department of Psychology, Suffolk University, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
J Int Neuropsychol Soc 18:585-94. 2012..The CD-AB metric construct failure may reflect an artificial amalgamation of processes. The D-A metric appears to more successfully combine multiple levels of representation (dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, sub-cortical, cerebellar)...
Does the iowa gambling task measure executive function?David A Gansler
Department of Psychology, Suffolk University, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Arch Clin Neuropsychol 26:706-17. 2011..Its associative strength with attention is twice that of EF. Conceptually, the IGT is a multi-trait task involving novel problem-solving and attentional domains to a greater extent, and executive functioning to a lesser extent...
A multivariate approach to aggression and the orbital frontal cortex in psychiatric patientsDavid A Gansler
Department of Psychology, Suffolk University, Boston, MA, USA Department of Psychiatry, Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, USA

Department of Psychology, Suffolk University, Boston, MA, USA
Psychiatry Res 191:16-23. 2011..The LPFC appears relevant to the higher-order aspects of a cortical self-control network, and that relevance is dependent upon the robust contribution of the OFC...

Psychology Service, Department of Veterans Affairs Healthcare System, Boston Campus, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
Alcohol Clin Exp Res 28:667-75. 2004..Evidence suggests that alcoholics exhibit particular deficits in brain systems involving the prefrontal cortex, but few studies have directly compared patients with and without Korsakoff's syndrome on measures of prefrontal integrity...
