Adolescent neurodevelopment. (2013, background): “For instance, the amygdala of adolescents is activated less than that of adults in response to aversive outcomes (reward omission) (53).”
The adolescent brain. (2008, methodology): “However, recent neuroimaging studies have begun to examine reward-related processing specific to risk-taking in adolescents (Bjork et al., 2004; Ernst et al., 2005; May et al., 2004).”
Dissociation of neural networks for anticipation and consumption of monetary and social rewards (2010, neutral): “…during the consumption of reward (Aharon et al., 2001; Bjork et al., 2004; Breiter et al., 2001; Delgado et al., 2000; Elliott et al., 2000; Ernst et al., 2005; Izuma et al., 2008; Martin-Soelch et al., 2003; Nieuwenhuis et al., 2005), others do not (Knutson et al., 2001b; NeuroImage 49…”
Earlier Development of the Accumbens Relative to Orbitofrontal Cortex Might Underlie Risk-Taking Behavior in Adolescents (2006, background): “Our results are consistent with rodent (Laviola et al., 2003) and previous developmental imaging (Ernst et al., 2005) studies of enhanced accumbens activity during adolescence.”
A Social Neuroscience Perspective on Adolescent Risk-Taking. (2008, background): “…notion that adolescents suffer from a ‘‘reward deficiency syndrome,” although intuitively appealing, is undermined by several studies that indicate elevated activity in subcortical regions, especially the accumbens, in response to reward during adolescence (Ernst et al., 2005; Galvan et al., 2006).”
A time of change: behavioral and neural correlates of adolescent sensitivity to appetitive and aversive environmental cues. (2010, background): “This biological hypersensitivity to reward in adolescents has been demonstrated in several additional studies (Ernst et al., 2005; May et al., 2004) and suggests a relative functional maturity in adolescent NAcc response as compared with children, with overall patterns of response mimicking that of…”
Adolescent risky decision-making: Neurocognitive development of reward and control regions (2010, background): “, 2006), and 2) that high rewards would be associated with a peak in activation of reward-related regions in the VS and VMPFC in midadolescence, during both the decision and outcome phase (Ernst et al., 2005; Galvan et al., 2006; Van Leijenhorst et al., 2010).”
The Teenage Brain (2013, methodology): “For example, a probabilistic monetary-reward task was used to show that adolescents demonstrated significantly more VS activation than adults when they earned money (Ernst et al., 2005).”
Mindfulness and Inhibitory Control in Early Adolescence (2012, background): “Yet, conversely, impulsivity and risk-taking behavior increase from childhood to adolescence (Steinberg, 2008)—a notion that researchers have explained with the increase of subcortical activation in the accumbens and amygdala which are known to be involved in making risky choices and processing soci”
Gender Socialization during Adolescence in Low- and Middle-Income Countries : Conceptualization, influences and outcomes (2017, background): “Early romantic and sexual experiences are believed to be reflections of pubertal (biological) maturation (Ernst et al., 2005), framed by social norms.”
