Department of Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
Psychol Rev 113:201-33. 2006..Taken together, the results presented indicate that recurrent neural networks may offer a useful framework for understanding short-term memory for serial order... - Distraction and action slips in an everyday task: evidence for a dynamic representation of task contextMatthew M Botvinick
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104 6241, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 12:1011-7. 2005..The observed effect provides differential support for existing models of sequential behavior and offers a highly constraining benchmark for future theories... - Effects of domain-specific knowledge on memory for serial orderMatthew M Botvinick
Department of Psychiatry and Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104 6241, USA
Cognition 97:135-51. 2005..This prediction was tested and confirmed in an experiment evaluating recall for sequences based on an artificial grammar... - Regularization in short-term memory for serial orderMatthew Botvinick
Department of Psychiatry and Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104 6241, USA
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 31:351-8. 2005..This regularization effect squares well with recent trace redintegration and Bayesian models of serial recall, and appears to represent an analog of the schema-based error patterns observed in other domains of memory... - Viewing facial expressions of pain engages cortical areas involved in the direct experience of painMatthew Botvinick
Department of Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania, PA 19104 6241, USA
Neuroimage 25:312-9. 2005..In addition, they lend support to the idea that common neural substrates are involved in representing one's own and others' affective states... - Conflict monitoring and anterior cingulate cortex: an updateMatthew M Botvinick
University of Pennsylvania, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 10104 6241, USA
Trends Cogn Sci 8:539-46. 2004..Recent research has also begun to shed light on the larger function of the ACC, suggesting some new possibilities concerning how conflict monitoring might fit into the cingulate's overall role in cognition and action... - Neuroscience. Probing the neural basis of body ownershipMatthew Botvinick
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 10104-6241, USA
Science 305:782-3. 2004 - Doing without schema hierarchies: a recurrent connectionist approach to normal and impaired routine sequential actionMatthew Botvinick
Department of Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104 6241, USA
Psychol Rev 111:395-429. 2004..Degrading this representation led to errors resembling those observed both in everyday behavior and in apraxia. Analysis of the model's function yielded numerous predictions relevant to both normal and apraxic performance... - Resolving conflict: a response to Martin and Cheng (2006)Sharon L Thompson-Schill
Department of Psychology, University of Pennsylvania, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104 6241, USA

Department of Psychology, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ, USA
Psychol Rev 111:931-59. 2004..It is concluded that the ERN can be explained in terms of response conflict and that monitoring for conflict may provide a simple mechanism for detecting errors... - The conflict adaptation effect: it's not just primingMarkus Ullsperger
Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, Germany
Cogn Affect Behav Neurosci 5:467-72. 2005..We discuss the data with respect to the conflict-monitoring and repetition-priming accounts... - Multilevel structure in behaviour and in the brain: a model of Fuster's hierarchyMatthew M Botvinick
Psychology Department and Institute in Neuroscience, Princeton University, Green Hall, Princeton, NJ 08540, USA
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 362:1615-26. 2007.... - Hierarchical models of behavior and prefrontal functionMatthew M Botvinick
Department of Psychology, Princeton Neuroscience Institute, Green Hall, Princeton, NJ 08540, USA
Trends Cogn Sci 12:201-8. 2008..In addition to offering explanations for some key aspects of behavior and functional neuroanatomy, the latest models also pose new questions for empirical research... - Error-likelihood prediction in the medial frontal cortex: a critical evaluationSander Nieuwenhuis
Department of Psychology, Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands
Cereb Cortex 17:1570-81. 2007..We conclude that although the EL hypothesis presents an elegant integrative account of pMFC function, it requires additional empirical support to remain tenable...
