Perceptual and cognitive processes have largely been inferred based on reaction times and
accuracies obtained from discrete responses. However, discrete responses are unlikely to …

Though several features of cognitive processing can be inferred from the discrete
measurement [eg, reaction time (RT), accuracy, etc.] of participants' conscious reports (eg …

It is well established that during the preparation and execution of goal-directed movements,
perceptual processing is biased towards the goal. Most of the previous work on the relation …

Recently, researchers have measured hand movements en route to choices on a screen to
understand the dynamics of a broad range of psychological processes. We review this …

Decision-making is central to human cognition. Fundamental to every decision is the ability
to internally represent the available choices and their relative costs and benefits. The most …

A dot-probe paradigm was used to provide physiological evidence for the parallel selection
of multiple movement goals before rapid hand movement sequences. Participants executed …

In theoretical accounts of perceptual decision-making, a decision variable integrates noisy
sensory evidence and determines action through a boundary-crossing criterion. Signals …

A perceptual judgment is typically characterized by constructing psychometric and
chronometric functions, ie, by mapping the accuracies and reaction times of motor choices …

Researchers in the field of active perception study how sensory processes coalesce with
motor actions to extract information from the world. Such actions intrinsically alter perceptual …

A central goal in cognitive science is to parse the series of processing stages underlying a
cognitive task. A powerful yet simple behavioral method that can resolve this problem is …
