“…The absence of a significant association between anticipatory changes in mu and time to behavioral response may be attributed to the fact that participants were required to delay the reporting of their responses for 750 ms, until the display instructed them to respond, while previous investigations required an immediate response (Jones et al, 2010;Haegens et al, 2012;Van Ede et al, 2014). Lateralization has been shown to have an impact on preparation for behavioral responses, particularly in predicting reaction time, above and beyond contralateral or ipsilateral mu (or visual alpha) power alone (Van Ede et al, 2014;Haegens et al, 2011;McKinney & Euler, 2019;Shalev, Van Ede & Nobre, 2019). Changes in mu power during anticipation of the tactile stimulus, rather than in response to that stimulus, drove the association of the mu rhythm with performance on the executive function tasks.…”
