Recent studies have shown that visual information can trigger behavior within 150 msec, suggesting that visually guided responses to external events, in fact, precede conscious awareness of those events. However, is such a view correct? By using a texture discrimination task, we show that the brain relies on long-latency visual processing in order to guide perceptual decisions. Decreasing stimulus saliency leads to selective changes in long-latency visually evoked potential components reflecting scene segmentation. These latency changes are accompanied by almost equal changes in simple RTs and points of subjective simultaneity. Furthermore, we find a strong correlation between individual RTs and the latencies of scene segmentation related components in the visually evoked potentials, showing that the processes underlying these late brain potentials are critical in triggering a response. However, using the same texture stimuli in an antisaccade task, we found that reflexive, but erroneous, prosaccades, but not antisaccades, can be triggered by earlier visual processes. In other words: The brain can act quickly, but decides late. Differences between our study and earlier findings suggesting that action precedes conscious awareness can be explained by assuming that task demands determine whether a fast and unconscious, or a slower and conscious, representation is used to initiate a visually guided response.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1162\/jocn_a_00034","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,10]],"date-time":"2011-05-10T16:46:48Z","timestamp":1305046008000},"page":"3734-3745","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1162\/mitpressjournals.corrections.policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Act Quickly, Decide Later: Long-latency Visual Processing Underlies Perceptual Decisions but Not Reflexive Behavior"],"prefix":"10.1162","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Jacob","family":"Jolij","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1University of Groningen, The Netherlands"},{"name":"2University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands"},{"name":"3University of Exeter, UK"},{"name":"4Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H.
