Different Brain Correlates for Watching Real and Virtual Hand Actions (2001, background): “In addition, neural activities related to attention to actions and intention to act are also coded in the posterior parietal cortex, which may thus represent an interface between sensory and motor areas, in which cognitive functions related to sensorymotor transformation are coded (Andersen et al., ”
Perceptual awareness and its loss in unilateral neglect and extinction. (2001, background): “…are often invoked in such discussions, in fact parietal neurons also show clear sustained activity in delays periods of working memory tasks, where an animal must withhold a spatial response to a stimulus which has been removed until a go signal is presented (e.g. Andersen et al., 1985, 1997).”
Posture influences motor imagery: An fMRI study (2006, background): “…largely recurrent computational architecture of the parieto-frontal network (Burnod et al., 1999; Johnson et al., 1996), the posterior parietal cortex might have a privileged role for incorporating somatosensory information on the current body's position into a motor plan (Andersen et al., 1997).”
Fundamental components of attention. (2007, background): “Stimulus location also serves as a powerful filter for selecting information for intensive analysis in working memory and for guiding goal-directed behaviors (Andersen et al. 1997, Colby & Goldberg 1999, Maunsell & Treue 2006).”
