Detecting movement preparation with HYDRE: a hybrid model of temporal and spectral brain signals

This study introduces HYDRE, a hybrid model combining temporal, spectral, and Riemannian features to decode motor preparation from brain signals, achieving above-chance decoding up to 1400ms before movement.

Learning regularities in noise engages both neural predictive activity and representational changes

This study shows that learning regularities in noise involves both rapid neural predictive activity and slower representational changes, with the former preceding behavioral improvements.

No evidence of neural feature-specific pre-activation during the prediction of an upcoming stimulus

The paper reanalyzes Demarchi et al.'s data and shows that their findings on pre-activation during prediction can be explained by sequence structure bias, concluding no evidence of anticipatory predictive perception.

Spatial distance and temporal attentional focus modulate voluntary action preparation and awareness

This study examines how spatial proximity, attentional focus, and anticipated action outcomes influence motor preparation and action awareness using EEG and virtual reality.

The sense of agency in near and far space: where do we stand?

The paper reassesses evidence on whether spatial distance affects the sense of agency, finding no distance effect and suggesting distance influences temporal perception independently of agency.

Humans progressively feel agency over events triggered before their actions

The paper investigates how humans adapt their sense of agency when consequences precede their actions in an AI-assisted environment, finding implicit learning occurs within an hour.

No evidence in favour of the existence of 'intentional' binding

The paper tests whether intentional binding, a measure of the sense of agency, is caused by action intention or sensory integration, and finds no evidence for intentional binding.

Statistical learning occurs during practice while high-order rule learning during rest period

The paper distinguishes between statistical learning during task performance and high-order rule learning during rest periods using visuomotor sequence tasks.

Causal modulation of right fronto-parietal phase synchrony with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation during a conscious visual detection task

This study shows that rhythmic TMS increases high-beta synchrony between right frontal and parietal regions, enhancing visual detection sensitivity.

Entrainment of local synchrony reveals a causal role for high-beta right frontal oscillations in human visual consciousness

This study shows that rhythmic high-beta stimulation of the right Frontal Eye Field enhances visual detection through entrainment of local oscillations.

The ventral stream receives spatial information from the dorsal stream during configural face processing

The paper investigates whether configural face processing involves interactions between ventral and dorsal visual streams using TBS and fMRI, finding reduced ventral activity and connectivity during configural processing when dorsal regions are stimulated.
