Evidence against perfect integration of sensory information during perceptual decision making.
Perceptual decision making is often modeled as perfect integration of sequential sensory samples until the accumulated total reaches a fixed decision bound. In that view, the buildup of neural activity during perceptual decision making is attributed to temporal integration. However, an alternative explanation is that sensory estimates are computed quickly with a low-pass filter and combined wit...
متن کاملNeural activity in macaque parietal cortex reflects temporal integration of visual motion signals during perceptual decision making.
Decision-making often requires the accumulation and maintenance of evidence over time. Although the neural signals underlying sensory processing have been studied extensively, little is known about how the brain accrues and holds these sensory signals to guide later actions. Previous work has suggested that neural activity in the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) of the monkey brain reflects the...
متن کاملTemporal dynamics underlying perceptual de - cision making : Insights from the interplay be - tween an attractor model and parietal neuro - physiology Abbreviated title : Temporal dynamics during decision making
Recent neurophysiological studies in awake, behaving primates have revealed that neurons in certain brain areas appear to integrate sensory evidence over time during the performance of perceptual decision-making tasks. Neurons in the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) of rhesus monkeys exhibit such decisionrelated signals while the animals view and judge the direction of a visual motion display. ...

متن کاملBuilding Bridges between Perceptual and Economic Decision-Making: Neural and Computational Mechanisms
Investigation into the neural and computational bases of decision-making has proceeded in two parallel but distinct streams. Perceptual decision-making (PDM) is concerned with how observers detect, discriminate, and categorize noisy sensory information. Economic decision-making (EDM) explores how options are selected on the basis of their reinforcement history. Traditionally, the sub-fields of ...
متن کاملCausal Role of Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Human Perceptual Decision Making
The way that we interpret and interact with the world entails making decisions on the basis of available sensory evidence. Recent primate neurophysiology [1-6], human neuroimaging [7-13], and modeling experiments [14-19] have demonstrated that perceptual decisions are based on an integrative process in which sensory evidence accumulates over time until an internal decision bound is reached. Her...
