Neurocognitive mechanisms of cognitive control: the role of prefrontal cortex in action selection, response inhibition, performance monitoring, and reward-based learning. (2004, background): “…reward-based association learning The neurocognitive processes involved in decision making are especially relevant in choices that involve some perplexity, that is, when the alternatives are difficult to distinguish, have uncertain pay-offs or require prior knowledge to resolve them (Schall, 2001).”
The physics of optimal decision making: a formal analysis of models of performance in two-alternative forced-choice tasks. (2006, methodology): “The figure does not show the actual data, but it is a sketch based on data described by Britten et al. (1993), Shadlen & Newsome (2001), and Schall (2001).”
The simplest complete model of choice response time: linear ballistic accumulation. (2008, unknown): “The model we have described is Usher and McClelland’s (2001) ‘‘leaky competing accumulator” (also known as the ‘‘mutual inhibition” model).”

A Recurrent Network Mechanism of Time Integration in Perceptual Decisions (2006, background): “Recently, physiologists using behaving nonhuman primates have begun to reveal firing activities that are correlated with simple decisions (Romo and Salinas, 2001; Schall, 2001; Shadlen and Gold, 2004).”
The Influence of Behavioral Context on the Representation of a Perceptual Decision in Developing Oculomotor Commands (2003, background): “…have demonstrated neural correlates of perceptual decisions in association and motor cortices, which contain neurons that appear to represent the transformation of sensory information into the preparation for action (Glimcher, 2001; Gold and Shadlen, 2001; Romo and Salinas, 2001; Schall, 2001).”
Decision making in recurrent neuronal circuits. (2008, background): “…1996, 2001; Romo and Salinas, 2001; Roitman and Shadlen, 2002; Romo et al., 2004; Heekeren et al., 2008), target selection (Hanes and Schall, 1996; Schall, 2001, 2004; Cisek and Kalaska, 2005; Scherberger and Andersen, 2007), economic choice behavior (Platt and Glimcher, 1999; Sugrue et al.,…”
The Basal Ganglia and Cortex Implement Optimal Decision Making Between Alternative Actions (2007, methodology): “The neural basis of decision making in cortex has been studied extensively using single-cell recordings (Britten, Shadlen, Newsome, & Movshon, 1993; Kim & Shadlen, 1999; Schall, 2001).”
