The anti-saccade task has emerged as an important task for investigating the flexible control
that we have over behaviour. In this task, participants must suppress the reflexive urge to …

The ability to suppress reflexive responses in favor of voluntary motor acts is crucial for
everyday life. Both abilities can be tested with an oculomotor task, the antisaccade task. This …

A new academic field, neuroeconomics, has emerged at the border of the social and natural
sciences. In Foundations of Neuroeconomic Analysis, Paul Glimcher argues that a …

The introduction of a temporal gap between the disappearance of an initially fixated target
and the appearance of an eccentric saccadic target results in a general reduction of …

This book is a succinct introduction to the orienting of attention. Richard Wright and
Lawrence Ward describe the covert orienting literature clearly and concisely, illustrating it …

Diversity in behavioral responses to sensory stimuli has been attributed to variations in
preparatory set. Variability in oculomotor responses toward identical visual stimuli has been …

Complex visual scenes require that a target for an impending saccadic eye movement be
selected from a larger number of possible targets. We investigated whether changing the …

Significant advances in cognitive neuroscience can be achieved by combining techniques
used to measure behavior and brain activity with neural modeling. Here we apply this …

We investigated how the brain switches between the preparation of a movement where a
stimulus is the target of the movement, and a movement where a stimulus serves as a …

Because real-world scenes typically contain many different potential objects of interest,
selecting one goal from many is clearly a fundamental problem faced by the saccadic …
