Neural substrates on the judgment of sequential benefits and losses.
People need to adapt to situations where they experience sequential benefits (or losses) to ensure survival. This study investigated the neural substrates involved in judgments of sequential benefits and losses. A total of 29 healthy volunteers participated in this study, in which they were asked to...

This study investigated the neural substrates involved in judgments of sequential benefits and losses. A total of 29 healthy volunteers participated in this study, in which they were asked to participate in a game of purchasing stocks while a magnetic resonance imaging scan was performed. This game had two main types of trials: (1) participants received four sequential financial benefits (or losses), and (2) participants received an equal amount of benefits (or losses) immediately. The results showed greater activation of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) when four benefits were received sequentially than when an equal amount of benefits was received immediately. This indicates that the OFC plays a crucial role in the process of mental integration of sequential benefits and interpretation of their valuations. It also showed greater activation of the dorsal striatum when four sequental losses were received than when an equal amount of losses was received immediately. However, it cannot be concluded that activation of the dorsal striatum reflects the differences between sequential and immediate losses, because previous studies have not confirmed this perspective. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the function of the striatum in processing these losses. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
