To lend this architecture a neurobiological plausibility, we have assigned the prediction and error units to neuronal populations in various cortical and subcortical structures.

- Beyond eye gaze: What else can eyetracking reveal about cognition and cognitive development? (2016, background): “…stimulation research corroborate the close link between attention and gaze, showing that the frontal eye fields (FEF), which control eye movements, are also implicated in the deployment of covert visual attention (Awh et al., 2006; Corbetta et al., 1998; Grosbras et al., 2005; Müller et al., 2005).”
