Table 3 Decision-making performance. Descriptive statistics (mean ± standard deviation) of measures that inform the decision-making process, including standard behavioural metrics (upper part) and four main parameters of the diffusion decision model (lower part), as a function of the task and the condition.

  1. PGo: decision-making accuracy (percentage of Go-trials with correct responses); RTTot: mean reaction time for all Go-trials; ms: milliseconds; RTCorrect: mean reaction time for Go-trials with correct responses; RTError: mean reaction time for Go-trials with errors; IIV RT: intra-individual variability in reaction times; a: response caution ; a.u.: arbitrary unit; ν: drift rate; t0: non-decision time; z: starting point SSRT: stop signal reaction time; ms: milliseconds; SSD: stop signal delay; µStop: mean of the Gaussian component of the SSRTs distribution; σStop: standard deviation of the Gaussian component of the SSRTs distribution; τStop: mean of the exponential component of the SSRTs distribution; GF: Go failure (percentage of Go stimuli missed by the subject); TF: trigger failure (percentage of stop-signal missed by the subject).
