“…Neuroimaging methods can also be extremely useful in disentangling different processes that might underlie the same behavior. A recent study by Beste et al (2021) illustrates this. Working in the theory of event coding framework, they administered a perception-action integration task to 32 TS patients and 27 typically developing controls.…”

“…Therefore, it is unlikely that impaired or enhanced functioning of procedural memory as a whole could underlie any disorder. As discussed above, some recent studies that separated multiple learning processes in a single domain have already provided some interesting results in Tourette's syndrome (Yaniv et al, 2017;Beste et al, 2021;Tóth-Fáber et al, 2021). Furthermore, the components could also have distinct relationships with other cognitive functions, for example they might depend more or less on working memory capacity, executive functions or attentional resources Nemeth, 2013, 2015;Otto et al, 2013a,b).…”

Tourette’s syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by repetitive movements and vocalizations, also known as tics. The phenomenology of tics and the underlying neurobiology of the disorder have suggested that the altered functioning of the procedural memory system might contribute to its etiology. However, contrary to the robust findings of impaired procedural memory in neurodevelopmental disorders of language, results from TS have been somewhat mixed. We review the previous studies in the field and note that they have reported normal, impaired, and even enhanced procedural performance. These mixed findings may be at least partially be explained by the diversity of the samples in both age and tic severity, the vast array of tasks used, the low sample sizes, and the possible confounding effects of other cognitive functions, such as executive functions, working memory or attention. However, we propose that another often overlooked factor could also contribute to the mixed findings, namely the multiprocess nature of the procedural system itself. We propose that a process-oriented view of procedural memory functions could serve as a theoretical framework to help integrate these varied findings. We discuss evidence suggesting heterogeneity in the neural regions and their functional contributions to procedural memory. Our process-oriented framework can help to deepen our understanding of the complex profile of procedural functioning in TS and atypical development in general.

“…In the current issue of Biological Psychiatry: Global Open Science , Beste et al. ( 9 ) present evidence suggesting that motor symptoms observed in GTS arise from alteration in sensorimotor processing that occurs during perceptual decision making. Specifically, when incoming sensory information triggers a motor response, binding can occur where the specific action becomes associated with particular features of the input.…”

“…Beste et al. ( 9 ) then used whole-brain EEG reconstruction methods to evaluate if the integration process was governed by distinct patterns of neural oscillatory activity across the widely distributed brain networks in GTS and control subjects. The results revealed similar functional activation patterns in the beta band where the neural oscillation was primarily associated with inferior parietal and temporal regions in both GTS and control subjects.…”
