Our Brains Reveal Our Choices Before We’re Even Aware of Them

Researchers find neural activation patterns were predictive of the contents of voluntary visual imagery as far as 11 seconds before the choice of what to imagine. These results suggest that the contents of future visual imagery can be biased by current or prior neural representations.
