The study of decision making spans such varied fields as neuroscience, psychology,
economics, statistics, political science, and computer science. Despite this diversity of …

Traditional approaches to human information processing tend to deal with perception and
action planning in isolation, so that an adequate account of the perception-action interface is …

Most of our knowledge about the functional organization of neuronal systems is based on
the analysis of the firing patterns of individual neurons that have been recorded one by one …

Unifying principles of movement have emerged from the computational study of motor
control. We review several of these principles and show how they apply to processes such …

The hand endows us with unparalleled precision and versatility in our interactions with
objects, from mundane activities such as gras** to extraordinary ones such as virtuoso …

Delays in sensorimotor loops have led to the proposal that reaching movements are
primarily under pre-programmed control and that sensory feedback loops exert an influence …

▪ Abstract The posterior parietal cortex (PPC), historically believed to be a sensory structure,
is now viewed as an area important for sensory-motor integration. Among its functions is the …

To identify subdivisions of the human parietal cortex, we collected fMRI data while ten
subjects performed six tasks: gras**, pointing, saccades, attention, calculation, and …

The posterior parietal cortex and frontal cortical areas to which it connects are responsible
for sensorimotor transformations. This review covers new research on four components of …

In macaque monkeys, the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is concerned with the integration of
multimodal information for constructing a spatial representation of the external world (in …
