Anatomy and function of the orbital frontal cortex, II: Function and relevance to obsessive-compulsive disorder
DH Zald and SW Kim
Department of Psychology, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis 55455, USA.
The authors review neurophysiological, neurobehavioral, and
neuropsychological investigations of the orbital frontal cortex (OFC) in
human and non-human primates. The article critically examines the role of
the OFC in 1) recognition of reinforcers; 2) stimulus- reinforcer learning;
3) modulation of responses based on changes in reinforcement contingencies;
4) emotions, social behavior, and autonomic regulation; 5) mnemonic
functions; and 6) rule learning. Examining these functional areas with
reference to the OFC's anatomical and neurophysiological properties, the
authors suggest ways in which the OFC might contribute to
obsessive-compulsive disorder.
