State transition latencies. A: state diagram illustrates transition from one behavioral state to next. To eliminate spurious state transitions, predicted transition times were determined as the time at which the state decoder correctly predicted the new state at least β times out of the previous τ decision points (see inset). B: mean state transition latencies using LFP amplitude and spike recordings randomly sampled from only M1 arrays, PMv/PMd arrays, or all arrays. State transition latencies are reported as the difference between the predicted transition times and actual transition times as indicated by behavioral markers for Cue (baseline-reaction), OM (reaction-movement), and SH (movement-hold). Results were averaged across only those trials where decoding accuracy for each state was at least 25%. Asterisks indicate significant differences between state transition latencies. Error bars indicate SE.
