Distractor-Specific Single Neuron Activity Predicts Visual Working Memory Task Outcomes
Jia Lakhamraju,

Abstract:
This paper explores the relationship between neural activity and behavioral performance in the form of visual working memory (VWM) task outcomes, by answering the question: Are there any significant differences in the firing rates of individual neurons during the distractor presentation period of a VWM task between success and error trials that can predict the outcome of a trial? Distractor-specific single neuron firing rates during a VWM task were analyzed to answer this question. … Show more
