Cognition and comportment are subserved by interconnected neural networks that allow
high‐level computational architectures including parallel distributed processing. Cognitive …

The posterior parietal cortex and frontal cortical areas to which it connects are responsible
for sensorimotor transformations. This review covers new research on four components of …

Accounts of visually directed actions usually assume that their planning begins with an
intention to act. This article describes three experiments that challenged this view through …

Understanding the long association pathways that convey cortical connections is a critical
step in exploring the anatomic substrates of cognition in health and disease. Diffusion tensor …

The role of dopamine in behaviour and decision-making is often cast in terms of
reinforcement learning and optimal decision theory. Here, we present an alternative view …

Abstract one objective of the chapter is to present a... conception of attention... that
emphasizes the constraints of behavioral coherence and univocal perceptual-motor control …

The close integration between visual and motor processes suggests that some visuomotor
transformations may proceed automatically and to an extent that permits observable effects …

Negative priming has traditionally been viewed as a reflection of an inhibitory mechanism of
attention. However, recent accounts have suggested that negative priming does not reflect …

Abstract certain enduring assumptions about the nature of attention and about the functional
architecture of cognitive and perceptual-motor processes continue to exert their hold/two …

Functional MRI was used to examine cerebral activations in 12 subjects while they
performed a spatial attention task. This study applied more stringent behavioural and …
