Dissociating the Role of the Orbitofrontal Cortex and the Striatum in the Computation of Goal Values and Prediction Errors (2008, background): “Recent human neuroimaging studies have separately suggested that blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal in the ventral striatum (VS) correlates with both prediction errors (McClure et al., 2003; O’Doherty et al., 2003; Abler et al., 2006; Li et al., 2006; Rodriguez et al., 2006; Tobler et al., 2”
How Prediction Errors Shape Perception, Attention, and Motivation (2012, background): “…for a wide range of stimuli including attractive faces, money, and food (e.g., Pagnoni et al., 2002; McClure et al., 2003; O’Doherty et al., 2003; Abler et al., 2006; Rodriguez et al., 2006; Bray and O’Doherty, 2007; Seymour et al., 2007; Yacubian et al., 2007; Hare et al., 2008; Niv et al.,…”
The Reward Circuit: Linking Primate Anatomy and Human Imaging (2010, background): “Other studies, however, have reported linear effects of anticipated reward probability on VS activation (Abler et al , 2006; Hsu et al , 2009; Tobler et al , 2008; Yacubian et al , 2006).”
The neural correlates of subjective value during intertemporal choice (2007, positive): “This reward-related activity correlates with reward size and probability 6 – 16 , and is greater for more preferred rewards than for less preferred rewards 17 , 18 , 20 , 21 .”
