Temporal dynamics underlying perceptual decision making: Insights from the interplay between an attractor model and parietal neurophysiology

Recent neurophysiological studies in awake, behaving primates have revealed that neurons in certain brain areas appear to integrate sensory evidence over time during the performance of perceptual decision-making tasks. Neurons in the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) of rhesus monkeys exhibit such de...
