Role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in processing temporal anomalies retained in working memory
This deactivation occurs because the temporal anomaly does not require ongoing maintenance for later comparison, thus demanding fewer cognitive resources from the DLPFC. This seemingly counterintuitive effect can be attributed to the temporal aspects being irrelevant to the primary task goals. This finding highlights the crucial role of implicit temporal interference and establishes a strong connection between timing and executive cognitive processes.
