Motor Planning under Unpredictable Reward: Modulations of Movement Vigor and Primate Striatum Activity
Although reward probability is an important factor that shapes animal behavior, it is not well understood however, how the primate brain translates reward expectation into the vigor of movement (reaction time and speed). To address this question, we trained two monkeys in a reaction time task that r...
