Multivariate decoding methods were developed originally as tools to enable accurate
predictions in real-world applications. The realization that these methods can also be …

Considerable information about mental states can be decoded from noninvasive measures
of human brain activity. Analyses of brain activity patterns can reveal what a person is …

Over the last decade, many neuroimaging studies have assessed the human brain networks
underlying action observation and imitation using a variety of tasks and paradigms …

The multivariate analysis of brain signals has recently sparked a great amount of interest, yet
accessible and versatile tools to carry out decoding analyses are scarce. Here we introduce …

The fully updated eighth edition of Cognitive Psychology: A Student's Handbook provides
comprehensive yet accessible coverage of all the key areas in the field ranging from visual …

Since its introduction, multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA), or 'neural decoding', has
transformed the field of cognitive neuroscience. Underlying its influence is a crucial …

The way the cognitive system scans the visual environment for relevant information–visual
search in short–has been a long-standing central topic in vision science. From its inception …

The dominant view that perceptual learning is accompanied by changes in early sensory
representations has recently been challenged. Here we tested the idea that perceptual …

When spatial attention is directed toward a particular stimulus, increased activity is
commonly observed in corresponding locations of the visual cortex. Does this attentional …

Patterns of brain activity contain meaningful information about the perceived world. Recent
decades have welcomed a new era in neural analyses, with computational techniques from …
