title: [Effect of traumatic brain injury on control and suppression of inhibition processes].
abstract: Recent hypotheses have renewed discussion on the mechanisms linking executive functions and working memory in patients with traumatic brain injury. In this context, we studied the control and suppression functions of inhibition processes. Results obtained with a suppression paradigm showed that the traumatic brain injury patient makes a number of suppression errors and that suppression responses imply an important temporal loss in this population.
