“…3A, upper ). This is consistent with previous observations of an evidence-independent buildup component in signals related to motor preparation attributed to gradually increasing urgency ( Cisek et al, 2009 ; Hanks et al, 2014 ; Murphy et al, 2016 ; Standage et al, 2011 ; Thura et al, 2012 ; Thura and Cisek, 2014, 2016 ), seen sometimes in anticipation of evidence ( Corbett et al, 2021 ; Kelly et al, 2021 ). This growing urgency component, which in evidence-accumulation models combines with cumulative evidence in a decision variable building towards a constant action-triggering threshold, is mathematically equivalent to, and a well established neural implementation of, a collapsing decision bound ( Churchland et al, 2008 ; O’Connell et al, 2018 ).…”
