very much so. I think it is just a more modern way of referring to
association cortex really! Posner and Petersen's (1990) description of
"posterior and anteior attentional systems" are more clear, I find. Limbic
systems strongly innervate ventromedial/orbitofrontal PFC and dorsolateral
PFC has recpirocal connections to parietal cortex. To exclude the PFC from
attentional networks would be folly.
