Fig. 2: Behavioural choice data for the effort-discounting and information-seeking tasks.
From: Neurocomputational mechanisms underlying the subjective value of information
a, b Proportion of trials in the effort-discounting task in which participants chose the High Reward option (Pr(HR)), as a function of the (a) effort and (b) reward on offer. The red lines indicate the condition median, and the boxes extend over the interquartile range (25th to 75th percentile). The whiskers extend to the largest value no further than 1.5 times the interquartile range. Outliers (i.e., those whose data lie beyond 1.5 × the interquartile range) are indicated by red ‘+’s. (c, d) Preference for the informative option in the information-seeking task (Pr(Info)), plotted as a function of: (c) effort, and (d) the prior probability of winning, Pr(Win). Triangles depict group means, and error bars one standard error of the mean.
