Schlund, Michael W.; Cataldo, Michael F. – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
Results of numerous human imaging studies and nonhuman neurophysiological studies on "reward" highlight a role for frontal, striatal, and thalamic regions in operant learning. By integrating operant and functional neuroimaging methodologies, the present investigation examined brain activation to two types of discriminative stimuli correlated with…
