Abstract: Activation of midbrain dopamine neurons in response to positive prediction errors and reward predictive cues is proposed to "energize" reward seeking behaviors and approach responses to places where the reward is expected. In the present… read more here.

Abstract: Reward expectation reduces the interference of task-irrelevant emotional distractors by improving cognitive control. The current study investigated the effects of reward expectation on proactive and reactive cognitive control of negative distractors. Reward expectation (incentive vs.… read more here.

Abstract: Mirror Neurons (MNs) respond similarly when primates make or observe grasping movements. Recent work indicates that reward expectation influences rostral M1 (rM1) during manual, observational, and Brain Machine Interface (BMI) reaching movements. Previous work showed… read more here.
