Article Title:Control of language use: cognitive modeling of the hemodynamics of Stroop task performance

Abstract:
The control of language use has in its simplest form perhaps been most intensively studied using the color-Word Stroop task. The authors review chronometric and neuroimaging evidence on Stroop task performance to evaluate two prominent, implemented models of control in naming and reading: GRAIN and WEAVER+ +. Computer simulations are reported. which reveal that WEAVER++ offers a more satisfactory account of the data than GRAIN. In particular. we report WEAVER++ simulations of the BOLD response in anterior cingulate cortex during Stroop performance. Aspects of single-word production and perception in the Stroop task are discussed in relation to the wider problem of the control of language use. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
