| Research Abstract |
In the present study, I used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the neural correlates of false recognition and deception in healthy individuals. I reported that the increased prefrontal activity was found in deception relative to false recognition and that the increased medial temporal-lobe (right anterior hippocampal) activity was found in false recognition relative to deception. As for the neural correlates of deception, I conducted a neuropsychological study of patients with Parkinson's disease and reported that the prefrontal cortex plays an important role in deception. I also published a review article on these findings.
