Recent research using functional magnetic resonance imaging has revealed that memory retrieval often places considerable demands on prefrontal cortex (PFC), a region known to underpin complex decision-making. Regional dissociations within PFC suggest that memory retrieval recruits several decision processes shared with complex decision making in non-memory domains. Here we briefly review data highlighting the role of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) during memory and non-memory judgments, which suggest that dlPFC is sensitive to decision complexity during memory retrieval. As decision complexity increases, decision makers may be more susceptible to stress and/or fatigue with consequent failures of memory judgment.
最近使用功能磁共振成像的研究表明，记忆提取常常对前额叶皮质（PFC）提出相当高的要求，该区域是已知支持复杂决策的区域。PFC内的区域分离表明，记忆提取会调用几个与非记忆领域复杂决策共有的决策过程。在这里，我们简要回顾强调背外侧前额叶皮质（dlPFC）在记忆和非记忆判断中的作用的数据，这些数据表明dlPFC在记忆提取过程中对决策复杂性敏感。随着决策复杂性的增加，决策者可能更容易受到压力和/或疲劳的影响，从而导致记忆判断失误。
