To understand subjective evaluation of an option, various disciplines have quantified the
interaction between reward and effort during decision making, producing an estimate of …

For over 100 years, eye movements have been studied and used as indicators of human
sensory and cognitive functions. This review evaluates how eye movements contribute to …

Given two rewarding stimuli, animals tend to choose the more rewarding (or less effortful)
option. However, they also move faster toward that stimulus [1–5]. This suggests that reward …

Prominent theories of decision making suggest that the basal ganglia (BG) play a causal
role in deliberation between action choices. An alternative hypothesis is that deliberation …

Recent theoretical models suggest that deciding about actions and executing them are not
implemented by completely distinct neural mechanisms but are instead two modes of an …

We used a dynamical systems perspective to understand decision-related neural activity, a
fundamentally unresolved problem. This perspective posits that time-varying neural activity …

Decision-makers must often balance the desire to accumulate information with the costs of
protracted deliberation. Optimal, reward-maximizing decision-making can require dynamic …

Communication plays an integral role in human social dynamics and is impaired in several
neurodevelopmental disorders. Mice are used to study the neurobiology of social behavior; …

Recent work suggests that while animals decide between reaching actions, neurons in
dorsal premotor (PMd) and primary motor (M1) cortex reflect a dynamic competition between …

Humans often slow down after mistakes (post-error slowing [PES]), but the neural
mechanism and adaptive role of PES remain controversial. We studied changes in the …
