Abstract
The basal ganglia is certainly one of the major centers of the central nervous system controlling voluntary movement and posture1, but its precise role is still far from understanding. Only experimental studies in monkeys with various conditioned voluntary movements or with experimentally produced involuntary movements were carried out to observe neural activities of the basal ganglia associated with these particular conditions.
