Miltner et al., 1997; Cohen, 2011; Luu and Tucker, 2001; Luu et al., 2004; Luu, et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2005; Bokura et al., 2001; Pandey et al., 2012). The observed theta increases for no-go stimuli are consistent with an initial detection of demands of motor inhibition associated with no-go stimuli, similar to the well documented no-go N2 component (Pfefferbaum et al., 1985; Falkenstein et al., 1999; Kok, 1986). Together with previous work, the present results add weight to the notion of a common ACC-based frontal midline theta underlying a number of ERP negativities (e.g., ERN, FN, N2; cf. Cavanagh et al., 2011). These findings are consistent with recent observations of a broader salience network identified via fMRI, in which the ACC plays a central role (Seeley et al.. 2007).
