Neural Measures of Human Decision Making Track Evidence Accumulation in Learned Space

2026-01-23

Abstract excerpt

Neural decision-making flexibly integrates evidence across sensory, mnemonic, and semantic domains. Yet prior demonstrations have focused on evidence that is either directly available in stimuli, retrieved from established representations, or computed relative to fixed perceptual frameworks. A fundamental question remains: does neural evidence accumulation extend to decisions based on evidence that must be comput...
