Choice-related neural signals are easily confounded with stimulus-driven activity in analysis

Evidence

In choice analyses, it is imperative to restrict the analysis to those trials in which neural modulation related to choice can be clearly disassociated from the auditory stimulus. If this analysis is not carefully conducted, apparent choice activity may be conflated with stimulus-related activity. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4885
