Neural oscillations and synchronization differentially support evidence accumulation in perceptual and value-based decision making
Organisms make two types of decisions on a regular basis. Perceptual decisions are
determined by objective states of the world (eg, melons are bigger than apples), whereas …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation: decomposing the processes underlying action preparation
S Bestmann, J Duque - The Neuroscientist, 2016 - journals.sagepub.com
Preparing actions requires the operation of several cognitive control processes that
influence the state of the motor system to ensure that the appropriate behavior is ultimately …

Human scalp potentials reflect a mixture of decision-related signals during perceptual choices
Single-unit animal studies have consistently reported decision-related activity mirroring a
process of temporal accumulation of sensory evidence to a fixed internal decision boundary …

[HTML][HTML] Motor cortical signals reflecting decision making and action preparation
Decision making often requires accumulating evidence in favour of a particular option. When
choices are expressed with a motor response, these actions are preceded by reductions in …
