Fig. 2: Example neural responses to the different outcome conditions.
From: The role of mPFC and MTL neurons in human choice under goal-conflict
a Sagittal slices show the location of active electrode contacts in mPFC and MTL areas (yellow markers, registered to an MNI atlas) that refer to the raster plots and peri-stimulus time histograms (PSTH), per condition (see legend for color codes). b, c PSTH from two different amygdala neurons showing significant increase in firing following reward outcome in both controlled and uncontrolled conditions. d–f PSTH from three different mPFC neurons showing significant increase in firing following punishment outcome in controlled but not in uncontrolled condition. Time 0 on the x-axis represents the timing of outcome (coin or ball hit the avatar). FR firing rate.
