The ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC) is a section of the prefrontal cortex located on the inferior frontal gyrus, bounded superiorly by the inferior frontal sulcus and inferiorly by the lateral sulcus.
Ventrolateral prefrontal cortex refers to a region in the frontal lobes of the brain that is associated with inhibiting responses and selecting appropriate responses to achieve goals. It is involved in tasks such as reappraisal and suppression of emotions, as well as implicit emotion regulation.
Concepts of cognitive control (CC) and executive function (EF) are defined in terms of their relationships with goal-directed behavior versus habits and controlled versus automatic processing, and...
We can divide the primate prefrontal cortex into broad regions: the orbitofrontal cortex; the dorsal prefrontal cortex; the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex; the ventromedial prefrontal cortex; the anterior cingulate cortex; and the frontal pole (Figure 1).
For many years, the functional role of the ventrolateral Pre-Frontal Cortex (PFC) was associated with executive functions, specifically in the context of non-affective cognitive processes. However, recent research has suggested that the ventrolateral PFC is also involved in the attention system.
Prefrontal cortex. Abstract. The ventromedial and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex are two major prefrontal regions that usually interact in serving different cognitive functions. On the...
Understanding ventrolateral prefrontal cortex variation in primates is critical to determining the neuroanatomical changes that underlie human-specific abilities such as the emergence of...
