TLDR
It is demonstrated that the requirement to perform a difficult perceptual judgment at the saccade landing location can reduce saccadic latency (by >15%) and increase saccades peak velocity.

Adaptive control of saccades via internal feedback

TL;DR: It appears that in controlling saccades, the brain relies on an internal feedback that has the characteristics of a fast-adapting forward model that monitors the motor commands, predicts their sensory consequences, and corrects eye trajectory midflight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mere effort and stereotype threat performance effects.

TL;DR: The mere effort account argues that stereotype threat participants are motivated to perform well, which potentiates the prepotent response, but also leads to efforts to counter this tendency if participants recognize that the response is incorrect, know the correct response, and have the opportunity to make it.
Journal ArticleDOI

The intrinsic value of visual information affects saccade velocities.

TL;DR: Rec reflexive saccades that were made to a laser light in anticipation of viewing an image of a face had the highest velocities and shortest durations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The LATER model of reaction time and decision.

TL;DR: A thorough discussion of the history behind this model, and how it can be applied to more complex decisions, including anti-saccades, Go-NoGo, countermanding and other situations where newly-arrived information means that ongoing decisions must be modified.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of eye tracking for understanding and improving diagnostic interpretation.

TL;DR: An overview of eye-tracking technology, the perceptual and cognitive processes involved in medical interpretation, how eye tracking has been employed to understand medical interpretation and promote medical education and training, and some of the promises and challenges for future applications of this technology are provided.

Neural Correlates of Decision Variables in Parietal Cortex

TL;DR: The data indicate that a decision-theoretic model may provide a powerful new framework for studying the neural processes that intervene between sensation and action.

The Role ,of Attention in the Programming of Saccades

TL;DR: The links between saccades and attention can be explained by a model in which perceptual attention determines the endpoint of the saccade, while a separate trigger signal initiates theSaccade in response to transient changes in the attentional locus.

The main sequence, a tool for studying human eye movements

TL;DR: Infrared photodiodes aimed at the iris-sclera border and a digital computer were used in experiments to derive the main sequence curves, which determine saccadic amplitude and peak velocity in the pulse width modulation model.

Matching behavior and the representation of value in the parietal cortex.

TL;DR: It is found that a simple model based on reward history can duplicate this behavior and that neurons in the parietal cortex represent the relative value of competing actions predicted by this model.
