Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California at Berkeley, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 22:837-47. 2010..Functional connectivity analyses give rise to the hypothesis that RLPFC draws on hippocampal representations of mental relations during the process of relational integration... 
"Brain is to thought as stomach is to ??": investigating the role of rostrolateral prefrontal cortex in relational reasoningCarter Wendelken
University of California, Davis, CA, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 20:682-93. 2008..g., Is shoe to foot as glove is to hand? --> "yes"). The RLPFC was engaged more strongly by the comparison subtask relative to completion, suggesting that the RLPFC is particularly involved in comparing relational structures...- Maintaining structured information: an investigation into functions of parietal and lateral prefrontal corticesCarter Wendelken
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, UC Berkeley, CA 94720, United States
Neuropsychologia 46:665-78. 2008..Functional connectivity analysis indicates interaction between dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and superior parietal cortex, especially when organization is required... - Neural evidence for dissociable components of task-switchingEveline A Crone
Center for Mind and Brain, University of California, Davis, USA
Cereb Cortex 16:475-86. 2006..Activation profiles of posterior parietal cortex, basal ganglia and rostrolateral PFC are also examined and discussed... - A functional and structural study of emotion and face processing in children with autismBlythe A Corbett
Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of California, Davis, CA 95817, USA
Psychiatry Res 173:196-205. 2009.... - Brain regions mediating flexible rule use during developmentEveline A Crone
Center for Mind and Brain, University of California, Davis, California 95616, USA
J Neurosci 26:11239-47. 2006..These findings suggest that two components of task-switching--rule retrieval and task-set suppression--follow distinct neurodevelopmental trajectories... - Retrieving rules for behavior from long-term memorySarah E Donohue
Psychology Department and Center for Mind and Brain, University of California at Davis, 202 Cousteau Place, Suite 201, Davis, CA 95616, USA
Neuroimage 26:1140-9. 2005..Left VLPFC was reliably engaged while subjects attempted to interpret the signs but did not differ according to knowledge or experience. These data implicate postMTG in rule storage and VLPFC in rule retrieval... - Analogical reasoning and prefrontal cortex: evidence for separable retrieval and integration mechanismsSilvia A Bunge
Department of Psychology and Center for Mind and Brain, University of California at Davis, Davis, CA 95616, USA
Cereb Cortex 15:239-49. 2005..Right dorsolateral PFC exhibited a profile consistent with a role in response selection rather than retrieval or integration. These findings indicate that verbal analogical reasoning depends on multiple, PFC-mediated computations... - Left, but not right, rostrolateral prefrontal cortex meets a stringent test of the relational integration hypothesisSilvia A Bunge
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California at Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
Neuroimage 46:338-42. 2009..We argue that the integration of disparate mental relations by left RLPFC is a fundamental process that supports higher-level cognition in humans... - Comparing the bird in the hand with the ones in the bushSilvia A Bunge
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute and Department of Psychology, University of California at Berkeley, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
Neuron 62:609-11. 2009..In this issue of Neuron, Boorman and colleagues shed new light on the roles of lateral frontopolar and ventromedial prefrontal cortices in task switching and decision making... - Association of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex dysfunction with disrupted coordinated brain activity in schizophrenia: relationship with impaired cognition, behavioral disorganization, and global functionJong H Yoon
