Prestimulus alpha power predicts fidelity of sensory encoding in perceptual decision making
Pre-stimulus α power has been shown to correlate with the behavioral accuracy of perceptual decisions. In most cases, these correlations have been observed by comparing α power for different behavioral outcomes (e.g. correct vs incorrect trials). In this paper we investigate such covariation within the context of behaviorally-latent fluctuations in task-relevant post-stimulus neural activity. S...
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...
متن کاملStuck in a Moment: EEG Alpha Power Predicts Perceptual Perseveration
A major question in neuroscience is how the intrinsic state of the neuronal network determines the perception of a complex stimulus and enhances the propensity to either switch or remain attentive to a particular perceptual interpretation. To understand the mechanisms of the spontaneous drive of the brain to explore alternative interpretations of unchanging stimuli, we recorded high-density ele...
متن کاملPrestimulus Alpha Power Influences Tactile Temporal Perceptual Discrimination and Confidence in Decisions.
Recent studies have demonstrated that prestimulus alpha-band activity substantially influences perception of near-threshold stimuli. Here, we studied the influence of prestimulus alpha power fluctuations on temporal perceptual discrimination of suprathreshold tactile stimuli and subjects' confidence regarding their perceptual decisions. We investigated how prestimulus alpha-band power influence...
متن کاملPerceptual discrimination in static and dynamic noise: the temporal relation between perceptual encoding and decision making.
The authors report 9 new experiments and reanalyze 3 published experiments that investigate factors affecting the time course of perceptual processing and its effects on subsequent decision making. Stimuli in letter-discrimination and brightness-discrimination tasks were degraded with static and dynamic noise. The onset and the time course of decision making were quantified by fitting the data ...
