Abstract: Highlights•Delta band EEG carries information about arm movement initiation and direction.•Movement initiation and direction are represented in two distinct cortical networks.•Information about movement direction is primarily encoded in parieto-occipital areas.•The activity in parieto-occipital areas is phase-locked to the direction cue.
