“…Further, in an fMRI study on auditory cortex activity during silence in healthy participants, Hunter et al found that increased ACC activation was correlated with co-activation of the auditory cortex and concluded that endogenous auditory activity, such as musical hallucinations, is modulated by the brain's "default mode" comprised of the ACC (37). Studies have further described this altered activation in hallucinators as a shift in resting-state activity of the default mode network to sensorimotor areas, such as the primary auditory cortex, as shown in Figure 4, and other studies (73,75,76,79). Thus, this suggests that attentional biases, such as those that may be triggered by ACC stimulation, can alter the resting state of sensory networks during silence, thereby initiating spontaneous activations that produce hallucinations or imagined percepts.…”

The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has been extensively implicated in the functional brain network underlying chronic pain. Electrical stimulation of the ACC has been proposed as a therapy for refractory chronic pain, although, mechanisms of therapeutic action are still unclear. As stimulation of the ACC has been reported to produce many different behavioral and perceptual responses, this region likely plays a varied role in sensory and emotional integration as well as modulating internally generated perceptual states. In this case series, we report the emergence of subjective musical hallucinations (MH) after electrical stimulation of the ACC in two patients with refractory chronic pain. In an N-of-1 analysis from one patient, we identified neural activity (local field potentials) that distinguish MH from both the non-MH condition and during a task involving music listening. Music hallucinations were associated with reduced alpha band activity and increased gamma band activity in the ACC. Listening to similar music was associated with different changes in ACC alpha and gamma power, extending prior results that internally generated perceptual phenomena are supported by circuits in the ACC. We discuss these findings in the context of phantom perceptual phenomena and posit a framework whereby chronic pain may be interpreted as a persistent internally generated percept.

Trait self-control (TSC), defined as the capacity to alter predominant response to promote desirable long-term goals, has been found to facilitate emotional well-being (EWB). However, the neural correlates underlying this association remain unclear. The present study estimated resting-state brain activity and connectivity with amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) and functional connectivity (rsFC) among late adolescents. Whole-brain correlation analysis showed that higher TSC was associated with increased ALFF in regions within the executive control network (inferior frontal gyrus, IFG) and the salience network (anterior insula, AI) and decreased ALFF in regions (e.g., medial frontal gyrus, MFG; posterior cingulate, PC) within the default-mode network (DMN). TSC was also linked with the integration (e.g., increased IFG-PC connectivity) and segregation (e.g., decreased AI-MFG connectivity) among brain networks. Mediation analysis indicated that TSC totally mediated the links from the IFG and the precuneus, FC of the AI and regions of the DMN (e.g., bilateral PC, MFG), to EWB. Additionally, ALFF in the IFG and the MFG could predict negative affect in the pandemic through TSC. These findings suggest that TSC is involved in several regions and functional organizations within and between brain networks and mediated the association between neural correlates and emotional wellness in adolescence.

“…According to dual-process theories, self-control often is reduced to the inhibition of impulsive behaviors (Heatherton & Wagner, 2011;Hofmann et al, 2009;Metcalfe & Mischel, 1999). While inhibitory control is certainly one route of selfcontrol, there are multiple alternative strategies of successful self-control (Fujita, 2011), e.g., by anticipation of future outcomes, which is necessary to pursue long-term goals (Goschke, 2014;Krönke et al, 2020b;Kruschwitz et al, 2018;Soutschek et al, 2016). At the neurobiological level, there is large consensus that cognitive control regions, such as the prefrontal cortex (PFC), play a major role in self-control.…”

Despite its relevance for health and education, the neurocognitive mechanism of real-life self-control is largely unknown. While recent research revealed a prominent role of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex in the computation of an integrative value signal, the contribution and relevance of other brain regions for real-life self-control remains unclear. To investigate neural correlates of decisions in line with long-term consequences and to assess the potential of brain decoding methods for the individual prediction of real-life self-control, we combined functional magnetic resonance imaging during preference decision making with ecological momentary assessment of daily self-control in a large community sample (N = 266). Decisions in line with long-term consequences were associated with increased activity in bilateral angular gyrus and precuneus, regions involved in different forms of perspective taking, such as imagining one’s own future and the perspective of others. Applying multivariate pattern analysis to the same clusters revealed that individual patterns of activity predicted the probability of real-life self-control. Brain activations are discussed in relation to episodic future thinking and mentalizing as potential mechanisms mediating real-life self-control.
