During the fatigue-inducing mental tasks in the present study, the prefrontal cortex, which is associated with the processing of executive functions such as visuospatial working memory and divided attention in the advanced trail making test and kana pick-out test, respectively, may have been continuously activated.

Cognitive processes that require the integration of executive processing with emotional processing may be influenced by both mood and 5-HT (which would explain recent findings in which mood state and 5-HT interact to bias cognition) (17), and simple "cold" tasks, which do not require higher prefrontal processing, may be unaffected by both mood and ATD.
If PMdr is classified as more prefrontal-like, then convergence of fibres from these areas indicates interaction between regions processing different aspects of executive function.
Objectively-measured deficits are variable but are most commonly observed in the areas of processing speed, aspects of executive functioning and, to a lesser degree, in learning and memory [ 3, 4].
The assumption was made that processing of number semantics, executive processes associated with 2-way decision making and error monitoring, had little effect on activity with amodal processes, linguistic or memory related, associated with narrative production.
The last category I distinguish is the type 2 processing of the central executive in working memory: decision making, planning, overruling experience, and self-regulation.
Frontal lobe development and myelination are critical and interruption of this process results in slowed information processing and poor development of executive functioning [ 67, 68].
Consequently, it is not possible to determine the nature and range of cognitive functions critically impacted (e.g. speed of processing, executive functioning, attention) and how these relate to changing biological and neurological functioning.
Factor scores for the cognitive abilities of processing speed, executive function (a second-order factor composed of subdomains of fluency, working memory, and switching), and episodic memory were examined based on a previously published confirmatory factor analysis (Hedden et al., 2012a).
McGurk et al. [ 73] included 26 randomized control trials showing a medium range of the effect size of 6 from 7 estimated cognitive functions, specifically in attention, speed of processing, executive functioning, verbal working memory, verbal learning and memory, and visual learning and memory.
To investigate the relation between these aspects of executive processing, we embedded an event-related oddball paradigm within a blocked design.
