The role of the frontal cortex in cognitive control: Toward an integration of cognivitive psychology and brain imagine / Intentional and cognitive control of action

The aim of the project is to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying cognitive control processes. In particular we are interested in investigating voluntary aspects of cognitive control. A second research area is the role of verbal instructions for behavioural regulation. Finally, we will investigate the neural mechanisms underlying inhibitory control.
- The project investigates the neural basis of cognitive control and intentional action. Furthermore, it investigates the neural mechanisme that are involved in the perception of intentional behaviour.
