| Description | This study concerned the intracerebrally located generators of the Contingent Negative Variation in two different paradigm settings: (i) motor output required, (ii) silent counting required (non-motor control condition).The CNV potential generators varied between motor and non-motor tasks. The intracerebral distribution of the potentials linked with expectation is task dependent. Our main conclusion is that the executive network is more active during the motor task than during counting task. |
