Extended Data Fig. 8: Baseline DS firing rate correlates with reaction but not movement times in the fixation version of the interval discrimination task.

(a) Average TED implant speeds aligned to stimulus onset recorded during control blocks in the fixation version of the interval discrimination task (DS cohort, N = 6 animals). Solid black lines and shaded gray patches represent individual animal medians and interquartile ranges, respectively. (b) Distribution of correlation coefficients between baseline firing rates of individual striatal neurons (N = 483) and subsequent reaction (top; one-sample two-tailed t-test, t(482) = −8.56, P = 1.55e-16) or movement times (bottom; one-sample two-tailed t-test, t(482) = 0.15, P = 0.88) for the DS-recorded animals trained on the fixation variant of the interval discrimination task (N = 3).
