Fig. 2

a Responses aligned to Cue 1 onset. The cartoons show Cue 1 (colored checkerboard) appearing inside or outside the RF (dashed circle). The middle row shows population peri-stimulus response histograms computed by z-scoring the raw FR within each neuron (using all of its data in the task), averaging across trials within each neuron, and averaging across neurons (n = 68). The bottom panels show regression coefficients indicating the effects of uncertainty (βUNC_neural, yellow) and reward (βREW_neural, green). The traces are averaged across cells (n = 68) and shading shows ±2 SEM (equivalent to 95% confidence interval). b Responses aligned to mask onset. Same format as in a. Saccades away from fixation had an average latency of 193.2 ± 0.22 ms. Across the trials contributing to the analyses in the different panels, the Spearman correlations between REW and UNC regressors were not significant for any cell (range, −0.11 to 0.19). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
