Stimulus and response conflict processing during perceptual decision making.
Encoding and dealing with conflicting information is essential for successful decision making in a complex environment. In the present fMRI study, stimulus conflict and response conflict are contrasted in the context of a perceptual decision-making dot-motion discrimination task. Stimulus conflict was manipulated by varying dot-motion coherence along task-relevant and task-irrelevant dimensions...
متن کاملHumans Optimize Decision-Making by Delaying Decision Onset
Why do humans make errors on seemingly trivial perceptual decisions? It has been shown that such errors occur in part because the decision process (evidence accumulation) is initiated before selective attention has isolated the relevant sensory information from salient distractors. Nevertheless, it is typically assumed that subjects increase accuracy by prolonging the decision process rather th...
متن کاملAdolescent-onset GABAA α1 silencing regulates reward-related decision making.
The GABAA receptor mediates fast, inhibitory signaling, and cortical expression of the α1 subunit increases during postnatal development. Certain pathological stimuli such as stressors or prenatal cocaine exposure can interfere with this process, but causal relationships between GABAA α1 deficiency and complex behavioral outcomes remain unconfirmed. We chronically reduced GABAA α1 expression se...
متن کاملMental chronometry: beyond onset latencies in the lexical decision task.
Four experiments addressed the influence of variables on lexical decision performance after response initiation has occurred. In Experiment 1, participants made an arm movement in one direction for word trials and pressed a button with the other hand for nonword trials. The results indicated that word frequency not only modulated the speed to initiate the arm movement, but also modulated the ac...
متن کاملDissociating sensory from decision processes in human perceptual decision making
A key question within systems neuroscience is how the brain translates physical stimulation into a behavioral response: perceptual decision making. To answer this question, it is important to dissociate the neural activity underlying the encoding of sensory information from the activity underlying the subsequent temporal integration into a decision variable. Here, we adopted a decoding approach...
