... Kornblum et al., 1990) between responses (i.e., body movements) and response-contingent perceptual effects (e.g., in the agent's environment). In the case of mouse-tracking, this common feature is usually manipulated through a spatial left-versusright arrangement of movement targets and the visual effects that are triggered by reaching a target ( Fig. 1; see Pfister et al., 2014;Schonard et al., 2021). These effects can be compatible (i.e., when a movement to the right evokes a visual effect on the right-hand side) or they can be incompatible (i.e., when a movement to the right evokes a visual effect on the hand side). Crucially, previous studies observed ongoing movements to be ...

... common denominator of all analyzed studies is that they used a setup with five relevant areas, as shown in Fig. 1: Movements began in a starting area in the lower middle of the screen and ended in one of two possible final movement locations. Depending on the response-effect compatibility mapping, action effects either occurred on the same side as the final movement location (dotted circle) or on the respective other side (solid circle).

... ensure that participants started the movement only after completing their decision. Consequently, to isolate influences on movement execution, the analyzed trajectories were truncated to the part between leaving the starting area and reaching the target area. All experiments assessed how anticipating an action effect shapes action execution (see Fig. 1B), that is, whether movements are systematically biased towards the location of their ensuing effect. With effect sizes ranging from d z = 0.38 to d z = 1.38, all experiments consistently showed that incompatible movements were more curved than compatible movements. However, we argue here that these effects were mainly driven by ...

When applying our cutoff criterion, the compatibility effect vanished for the spatial measures of AUC, F (1, 19) The solid vertical lines mark the point of maximal deviation from an ideal trajectory, with times on the x-axis normalized to percentage from start up this point to as well as from this point to reaching the target. Note that in this experiment, the data logging rate was substantially higher than the polling rate of the mouse. ...
