Functional Equivalence of Imagined vs. Real Performance of an Inhibitory Task: An EEG/ERP Study.

abstract：:The mesocorticolimbic dopamine (DA) system linking the dopaminergic midbrain to the prefrontal cortex and subcortical striatum has been shown to be sensitive to reinforcement in animals and humans. Within this system, coexistent segregated striato-frontal circuits have been linked to different functions. In the presen...
