Dissociable functions of reward inference in the lateral prefrontal cortex and the striatum

Dissociable functions of reward inference in the lateral prefrontal cortex and the striatum

In a complex and uncertain world, how do we select appropriate behavior? One possibility is that we choose actions that are highly reinforced by their probabilistic consequences (model-free processing). However, we may instead plan actions prior to their actual execution by predicting their conseque...
