“…Indeed, such subjects display longer RTs and worse performance. In humans, procrastination following antisaccade has been associated with neural modulation in the frontal eye field (FEF) and PF measured using magnetoencephalography [19] and functional magnetic resonance imaging [20] approaches.…”

Recent decisions about actions and goals can have effects on future choices. Several studies have shown an effect of the previous trial history on neural activity in a subsequent trial. Often, but not always, these effects originate from task requirements that make it necessary to maintain access to previous trial information to make future decisions. Maintaining the information about recent decisions and their outcomes can play an important role in both adapting to new contingencies and learning. Previous goal decisions must be distinguished from goals that are currently being planned to avoid perseveration or more general errors. Output monitoring is probably based on this separation of accomplished past goals from pending future goals that are being pursued. Behaviourally, it has been shown that the history context can influence the location, error rate and latency of successive responses. We will review the neurophysiological studies in the literature, including data from our laboratory, which support a role for the frontal lobe in tracking previous goal selections and outputs when new goals need to be accomplished.

“…Furthermore, shorter reaction time latencies of the motor response were associated with an increase in the neural activity in the superior colliculus when the previous trial was the same as the current trial (Dorris et al 2000;Fecteau and Munoz 2003;Gore et al 2002). Similarly, fMRI (Manoach et al 2007) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) (Lee at al. 2011) studies of antisaccade-prosaccade tasks in humans have shown changes in the activity of the frontal eye fields to be correlated with previous antisaccade trials and greater reaction time latencies.…”

Lukos JR, Choi JY, Santello M. Grasping uncertainty: effects of sensorimotor memories on high-level planning of dexterous manipulation. J Neurophysiol 109: 2937-2946, 2013. First published April 3, 2013 doi:10.1152/jn.00060.2013.-For successful object manipulation, the central nervous system must appropriately coordinate digit placement and force distribution. It is known that digit force planning is significantly influenced by previous manipulations even when object properties cannot be predicted on a trial-to-trial basis. We sought to determine whether this effect extends beyond force control to the coordination of digit placement and force. Subjects grasped and lifted an object whose center of mass (CM) was changed unpredictably across trials. Grasp planning was quantified by measuring the torque generated on the object at lift onset. We found that both digit placement and force were systematically affected by the CM experienced on the previous trial. Additionally, the negative covariation between digit forces and positions typically found for predictable CM presentations was also found for unpredictable CM trials. A follow-up experiment revealed that these effects were not dependent on visual feedback of object roll during object lift on the previous trial. We conclude that somatosensory feedback from previous grasp experience alone can affect high-level grasp planning by constraining the relation between digit force and position even when the task behavioral consequences cannot be reliably predicted. As learning of manipulations often involves interactions with objects in novel environments, the present findings are an important step to understanding the control strategies associated with the integration of sensorimotor memories and motor planning.

“…Therefore the effects could have originated from high cognitive control areas such as SEF and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (Desouza et al 2003) and propagate to, and take effect in, the eye movement control areas like FEF and SC. The location probability effects are likely to take place in the FEF and the SC by increasing the motor preparation level and consequently decreasing the saccade latencies (Connolly et al 2002(Connolly et al , 2005Koval et al 2004;Manoach et al 2007). …”

Liu C-L, Chiau H-Y, Tseng P, Hung DL, Tzeng OJL, Muggleton NG, Juan C-H. Antisaccade cost is modulated by contextual experience of location probability. J Neurophysiol 103: 1438 -1447, 2010. First published December 23, 2009 doi:10.1152/jn.00815.2009. It is well known that pro-and antisaccades may deploy different cognitive processes. However, the specific reason why antisaccades have longer latencies than prosaccades is still under debate. In three experiments, we studied the factors contributing to the antisaccade cost by taking attentional orienting and target location probabilities into account. In experiment 1, using a new antisaccade paradigm, we directly tested Olk and Kingstone's hypothesis, which attributes longer antisaccade latency to the time it takes to reorient from the visual target to the opposite saccadic target. By eliminating the reorienting component in our paradigm, we found no significant difference between the latencies of the two saccade types. In experiment 2, we varied the proportion of prosaccades made to certain locations and found that latencies in the high location-probability (75%) condition were faster than those in the low location-probability condition. Moreover, antisaccade latencies were significantly longer when location probability was high. This pattern can be explained by the notion of competing pathways for pro-and antisaccades in findings of others. In experiment 3, we further explored the degrees of modulation of location probability by decreasing the magnitude of high probability from 75 to 65%. We again observed a pattern similar to that seen in experiment 2 but with smaller modulation effects. Together, these experiments indicate that the reorienting process is a critical factor in producing the antisaccade cost. Furthermore, the antisaccade cost can be modulated by probabilistic contextual information such as location probabilities. I N T R O D U C T I O NThe saccadic eye movement system is an excellent model for studying the flexibility of human behaviors because of its extensively investigated neurophysiological basis (Basso and Wurtz 1997;Carpenter 1999;Schall 2004;Schall and Hanes 1993;Schiller and Kendall 2004; for review see Schall 2001 for review see Schall , 2009Schall and Thompson 1999). It is well known that pro-and antisaccades reflect the operation of different cognitive components. Over the last decade, researchers have shown that the saccadic eye movement system can be influenced by a wide range of cognitive factors, including attention (Baldauf and Deubel
