Nonspecific inhibition of the motor system during response preparation
Motor system excitability is transiently inhibited during the preparation of responses.
Previous studies have attributed this inhibition to the operation of two mechanisms, one …

Top-down suppression of incompatible motor activations during response selection under conflict
Top-down control is critical to select goal-directed actions in changeable environments,
particularly when several options compete for selection. This control system is thought to …

Auditory white noise exposure results in intrinsic cortical excitability changes
Cortical excitability is commonly measured by applying magnetic stimulation in combination
with measuring behavioral response. This measure has, however, some shortcomings …

Influence of reward on corticospinal excitability during movement preparation
Current models of decision making postulate that action selection entails a competition
within motor-related areas. According to this view, during action selection, motor activity …

[HTML][HTML] Neurophysiological modulations in the (pre) motor-motor network underlying age-related increases in reaction time and the role of GABA levels–a bimodal …
It has been argued that age-related changes in the neurochemical and neurophysiological
properties of the GABAergic system may underlie increases in reaction time (RT) in older …

Hasty sensorimotor decisions rely on an overlap of broad and selective changes in motor activity
Humans and other animals are able to adjust their speed–accuracy trade-off (SAT) at will
depending on the urge to act, favoring either cautious or hasty decision policies in different …

Towards assessing corticospinal excitability bilaterally: Validation of a double-coil TMS method
Abstract Background For several decades, Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has
been used to monitor corticospinal excitability (CSE) changes in various contexts …

Response bias reveals the role of interhemispheric inhibitory networks in movement preparation and execution
Human movement is influenced by various cognitive processes, such as bias, that
dynamically shape competing movement representations. However, the neurophysiological …

Generic inhibition of the selected movement and constrained inhibition of nonselected movements during response preparation
Previous studies have identified two inhibitory mechanisms that operate during action
selection and preparation. One mechanism, competition resolution, is manifest in the …
