EEG correlates of sensorimotor processing: independent components involved in sensory and motor processing

Abstract Sensorimotor processing is a critical function of the human brain with multiple cortical areas specialised for sensory recognition or motor execution. Although there has been considerable research into sensorimotor control in humans, the steps between sensory recognition and motor execution...
