A new method that measures between-channel, event-related covariances (ERCs) from scalp-recorded brain signals has been developed. The method was applied to recordings of 26 EEG channels from 7 right-handed men performing a bimanual visuomotor judgment task that required fine motor control. Covariance and time-delay measures were derived from pairs of filtered, laplacian-derived, averaged wave forms, which were enhanced by rejection of outlying trials, in intervals spanning event-related potential components. Stimulus- and response-locked ERC patterns were consistent with functional neuroanatomical models of visual stimulus processing and response execution. In early post-stimulus intervals, ERC patterns differed according to the physical properties of the stimulus; in later intervals, the patterns differed according to the subjective interpretation of the stimulus. The response-locked ERC patterns suggested 4 major cortical generators for the voluntary fine motor control required by the task: motor, somesthetic, premotor and/or supplementary motor, and prefrontal. This new method may thus be an advancement toward characterizing, both spatially and temporally, functional cortical networks in the human brain responsible for perception and action.
