TL;DR
Lower error-related activity in the anterior cingulate cortex and less performance adjustment after error commission are consistent with the hypothesis that disturbances in anterior cedulate cortex function are related to a specific alteration in an evaluative component of executive functioning-the internal monitoring of performance.

Results confirm that this region shows activity during erroneous responses, but activity was also observed in the same region during correct responses under conditions of increased response competition, which suggests that the ACC detects conditions under which errors are likely to occur rather than errors themselves.

Information-processing research provides an important viewpoint from which to understand the group of schizophrenias and recent advances and novel applications of these techniques in "boundary" populations such as high-risk children and schizotypal patients are discussed.

676 Citations1993Schahram Akbarian
Findings are consistent with a disturbance of the subplate during development in which the normal pattern of programmed cell death is compromised and accompanied by a defect in the normal orderly migration of neurons toward the cortical plate, likely to have serious consequences for the establishment of anormal pattern of cortical connections leading to a potential breakdown of frontal lobe function in schizophrenics.

Results using event-related fMRI confirm that the anterior cingulate cortex does show error related activity but that the same region of the brain also shows increased response related activity during correct responses associated with response competition, suggesting a re-conceptualization of the contribution of the ACC to executive processes that support an evaluative role.
