Fig. 8: Exps. 1, 2 and 4—intact localization and subjective uncertainty estimation in ALE patients.
From: The role of the human hippocampus in decision-making under uncertainty
a, ALE patients (n = 19 in Exps. 1 and 2, n = 8 in Exp. 4) and controls (n = 19 in Exps. 1 and 2, n = 12 in Exp. 4) did not differ in their localization error (the distance between the centre of the blue disk and the hidden circle) for fixed levels of uncertainty, indicating similar motor and localization performance. b, Subjective uncertainty is measured as z-scored sign-flipped confidence ratings that participants reported before seeing the reward on offer (Exp. 2) or during training (Exp. 4, including catch trials). There was no significant difference between ALE patients and controls in this measure, indicating intact uncertainty estimation. The error bars in a show ±s.e.m. The solid lines and shading in b show mean values and 95% CIs. See Supplementary Table 16 for the full statistical details.
