A cognitive signal for the proactive timing of action in macaque LIP
Abstract
Natural movements often occur without any immediate external event to cause them. In contrast to reactive movements, which are directly triggered by external cues, it is less clear how these proactive actions are initiated or when they will be made. We found that single neurons in the macaque's lateral intraparietal area (LIP) exhibit gradual firing rate elevations that reach a consistent value--which may correspond to a threshold--at the time of proactive, but not reactive, arm movements. This activity differs from sensory- and motor-related activity recorded in nearby cortical areas and could provide an internal trigger for action when abrupt external triggers in the visual input are unavailable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
