Disentangling the Roles of Approach, Activation and Valence in Instrumental and Pavlovian Responding (2011, background): “It takes the view of multiple, separate controllers contributing in parallel [98], and weighting the ultimate choice by the reward expected from that choice.”
The somatic marker hypothesis: a critical evaluation. (2006, background): “There is some evidence to suggest that over time animals are able to override this pattern to maintain long-term goal-directed behaviour in the face of short-term setbacks (e.g. Killcross and Coutureau, 2003).”
Stereotypic behaviour in captive animals: fundamentals and implications for welfare and beyond. (2006, neutral): “…as used by experimental psychologists applies to similar changes that also give recurring behaviours a rigid quality; actions performed repeatedly to gain a reward become less and less modifiable by changes in the quality of that reward (see e.g. Dickinson, 1985[N1]; Killcross and Coutureau, 2003).”
Neural systems of reinforcement for drug addiction: from actions to habits to compulsion (2005, background): “Some of that transition may reflect important changes in the balance of activity in those brain regions mediating the executive control over behavior: for example, in the acquisition of action-outcome learning itself, the detection of altered instrumental contingencies with associated changes in sub”
A specific role for posterior dorsolateral striatum in human habit learning (2009, background): “…neural systems contribute to these two types of learning, with the prefrontal cortex and the dorsomedial striatum subserving goal-directed action, and the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) supporting habit-based behavior (Balleine & Dickinson, 1998a; Killcross & Coutureau, 2003; Yin et al., 2004, 2005).”
Habits, rituals, and the evaluative brain. (2008, background): “F or p er so na l u se o nl y. reward value (A-O behavior) rather than habitual (S-R) behavior, even after overtraining (Killcross & Coutureau 2003, Yin & Knowlton 2004).”
Reinforcement learning: the good, the bad and the ugly. (2008, background): “Based on the latter characteristic, model-free RL has been suggested as a model of habitual actions [14,15], in which areas such as the dorsolateral striatum and the amygdala are believed to play a key role [17,18].”
Prefrontal executive and cognitive functions in rodents: neural and neurochemical substrates. (2004, background): “Furthermore, rats with PrL lesions do not work less for foods that have been devalued by prefeeding than they work for valued foods [10,75].”
Exploration from Generalization Mediated by Multiple Controllers (2013, background): “…involves multiple different controllers based on contrasting functional principles (Daw and Doya 2006; Daw et al. 2005; Dickinson and Balleine 2002; Killcross and Coutureau 2003; Sutton and Barto 1998; Tricomi et al. 2009; Valentin et al. 2007) that embody distinct trade-offs between the…”
