prefrontal function in sbp

Failure of selfregulation represents a deficit in information-processing, attention, planning, reasoning, selfmonitoring,or inhibition of a specific brain function or behavior (Baumeister et al., 1994; Giancola et al., 1996a, b).

Failure of self-regulation is hypothesized to result at the neurobiological level in a loss of
control of a brain structure over specific neural systems underlying relatively independent brain
functions, such as stress, anxiety, reward, pain, habits, and decision-making. This loss of
control has often been attributed to a dysfunction of the frontal lobes or hypofrontality
(Bechara, 2005; Mishkin, 1964; Pribram, 1956) and subsequent dysregulation of the different
subcortical cognitive systems controlled by the prefrontal cortex.
