(A) Experimental design. Subjects were cued with predictive information associated with each upcoming button press. This cue could either be a left- or right-cue (i.e., specific action planning), a double-cue (i.e., general action planning), or a no-go-cue (i.e., planning to not act). Subsequently, there was a jittered latency period, followed by the go signal indicating subjects which button to press (Left-cue, Right-cue and Double-cue) or not (No-go-cue). (B) Behavioral results. Main effect of trial type for reaction times (RTs; ***p < 0.001). The X axis represents trial type, plain black fill are left button presses and upward diagonal black fill are right button presses. The Y axis represents mean RTs. Error bars denote the standard error of the mean and n.s. = non-significant difference.
