IN THIS STUDY, the authors investigated the selectivity of frontal lobe lesion effects in the domains of automatic and controlled processing. Luria (1980) noted that lesions in the frontal lobes mostly affect self-generated control processes. In their extension of Luria's theory, Norman and Shallice (1986) suggested that a supervisory system, which is the "chief executive" of the brain, handles nonroutine behaviors when there is no known solution to the task at hand and when inappr...

Response Modulation Deficits: Implications for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Psychopathy
Journal of Cognitive Psychotherapy ; Laboratory evidence indicates that a specific information-processing deficiency underlies the behavioral manifestations of psychopathy. Specifically, the automatic direction of attention and controlled processing to stimuli or information that are peripheral to ongoing goal-directed behavior or a

Personality from a controlled processing perspective: An fMRI study of neuroticism, extraversion, and self-consciousness
Cognitive, Affective and Behavioral Neuroscience ; Although neuroticism has been central to most theories of personality, self-reported neuroticism has had limited success in predicting expected behavioral outcomes. The reason for this may be due, in part, to the imprecision of self-reports. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship
Transfer, control, and automatic processing in a complex motor task: an examination of bounce juggling.
Journal of Motor Behavior ; ABSTRACT. The authors evaluated the hypothesis that controlled and automatic processes are opposite ends of a continuum of learning (e.g., R. M. Shiffrin & W. Schneider, 1977) vs. an alternative, concurrent emergence hypothesis (e.g., J. M. Bebko et al., 2003; G. Logan, 1989). The authors also
