A Problem-Solving Task Specialized for Functional Neuroimaging: Validation of the Scarborough adaptation of the Tower of London (S-TOL) using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Problem-solving is an executive function subserved by a network of neural structures of which the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is central. Whereas several studies have evaluated the role of the DLPFC in problem-solving, few standardized tasks have been developed specifically for use with f...
