Task-related hemodynamic responses:

• Endogenous responses in the absence of a visual stimulus at the earliest stages of visual cortical processing.

• Spatially global and entrained to task timing.

V1, Ispilateral hemisphere: widespread hemodynamic activity unrelated to visual stimulus or spatial attention

Experimental ProtocolLow Reward

0

• Orientation discrimination task; tone feedback.

• Separate runs (of 15 trials) for four conditions (easy vs. hard, low reward vs. high reward).

Conclusions

• Task-related responses entrained to task timing.

• Pupil dilation also modulated by difficulty, reward, and correct/incorrect feedback.

-> Task-related responses reflects arousal.
