Using a multi-scale biophysical model of the macaque supplementary eye field, this paper identifies the cellular origins of the error-related negativity and its theta rhythm, linking laminar current sources to the error-related negativity and the post-error positivity.
This review article explores the relationship between performance monitoring, frontal cortex function, and psychiatric disorders by discussing findings from studies on macaques and humans, highlighting the identification of specific neurons associated with error monitoring and proposing a theoretical framework that offers new insights into error signal computation in both species.
