He called this the Frontal Eye Field The frontal eye field projects to ocular motor structures to produce movements of the eyes and is reciprocally connected with extrastriate visual areas.

This means another neural process must intervene between target selection and saccade initiation and that process is of randomly variable timing. 0 100 200 0 100 200 The control of movement can be studied with the countermanding (stop signal) task N O S T O P S I G N A L T r i a l s R e a c t i o n T i m e success S T O P S I G N A L T r i a l s C A N C E L L E D S t o p S i g n a l D e l a y success N O N C A N C E L L E D error Frontal Eye Field (as part of a network!)
