An electrophysiological signal that precisely tracks the emergence of error awareness

Recent electrophysiological research has sought to elucidate the neural mechanisms necessary for the conscious awareness of action errors. Much of this work has focussed on the error positivity (Pe), a neural signal that is specifically elicited by errors that have been consciously perceived. While...
