“…These findings are often attributed as evidence for sensory O-R binding that occurs when we anticipate outcomes. Some researchers have used neuroimaging and electrophysiological techniques to more directly demonstrate anticipation of sensory outcomes (Band, van Steenbergen, Ridderinkhof, Falkenstein, & Hommel, 2009 ; Kühn & Brass, 2010 ; Kühn, Keizer, Rombouts, & Hommel, 2010 ; Pfister, Melcher, Kiesel, Dechent, & Gruber, 2014 ; Vincent, Hsu, & Waszak, 2016 ; Waszak & Herwig, 2007 ; Zwosta, Ruge, & Wolfensteller, 2015 ). In the study of Kühn et al ( 2010 ), for example, participants were asked to prepare either hand or facial actions, during which anticipatory activations in the relevant perceptual areas (extrastriate body area and fusiform face area, respectively) were observed.…”

“…In the study of Kühn et al ( 2010 ), for example, participants were asked to prepare either hand or facial actions, during which anticipatory activations in the relevant perceptual areas (extrastriate body area and fusiform face area, respectively) were observed. In an attempt to compare sensory and affective outcome representations, Vincent and colleagues used EEG and investigated the prediction error signal generated by unexpected outcomes (Vincent et al, 2016 ). Participants pushed four response keys that consistently yielded the same picture of a face (either an adult’s or child’s face with either a positive or negative expression).…”

Outcome-response (O-R) priming is at the core of various associative theories of human intentional action. This is a simple and parsimonious mechanism by which activation of outcome representations (e.g. thinking about the light coming on) leads to activation of the associated motor patterns required to achieve it (e.g. pushing the light switch). In the current manuscript, we review the evidence for such O-R associative links demonstrated by converging (yet until now, separate) strands of research. While there is a wealth of evidence that both the perceptual and motivational properties of an outcome can be encoded in the O-R association and mediate O-R priming, we critically examine the integration of these mechanisms and the conditions under which motivational factors constrain the sensory O-R priming effect. We discuss the clinical relevance of this O-R priming mechanism, whether it can satisfactorily account for human goal-directed behaviour, and the implications for theories of human action control.
