Ultra-rapid categorisation in non-human primates

Erratum to: Anim Cogn DOI 10.1007/s10071-008-0139-2

In Fig. 6 of the paper “Ultra-rapid categorization in non-human primates” by Girard et al., all arrows were erroneously in the wrong direction. This error does not affect any of the paper’s conclusions.

Fig. 6

Constant time factors between minimum RTs of macaque monkey (left) and human (right) when eye (top) or hand (bottom) movements are considered. Time factors between species or between effectors are indicated close to the arrows that indicate the computation (for instance 0.67 in the top row is the time factor computed by minimum saccadic RT in the monkey/minimum saccadic RT in man). Minimum RTs for forced-choice saccades are mean minimum RTs of subjects. Minimum RTs for manual responses are minimum RTs of the population responses. Manual responses for monkeys are taken from a go/no-go task (Fabre-Thorpe et al. 1998); manual responses for humans are taken from the same go/no-go task (290 ms) or a forced choice manual task (270 ms) (Bacon-Mace et al. 2007)

The authors apologize for this error.
