Economic choice behavior entails the computation and comparison of subjective values. A
central contribution of neuroeconomics has been to show that subjective values are …

Neuronal recordings and lesion studies indicate that key aspects of economic decisions take
place in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Previous work identified in this area three groups of …

Traditionally the object of economic theory and experimental psychology, economic choice
recently became a lively research focus in systems neuroscience. Here I summarize the …

Economic choice is the behavior observed when individuals select one of many available
options solely based on subjective preferences. Behavioral evidence suggests that …

Economic goods may vary on multiple dimensions (determinants). A central conjecture in
decision neuroscience is that choices between goods are made by comparing subjective …

While making economic choices, individuals assign subjective values to the available
options. Values computed in different behavioral conditions, however, can vary substantially …

Economic choice entails assigning values to the available options and is impaired by
lesions to the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Recent results show that some neurons in the OFC …

Investigation into the neural and computational bases of decision-making has proceeded in
two parallel but distinct streams. Perceptual decision-making (PDM) is concerned with how …

We examined the activity of individual cells in the primate anterior cingulate cortex during an
economic choice task. In the experiments, monkeys chose between different juices offered in …

Recent work in neuroeconomics has shown that regions in orbitofrontal and medial
prefrontal cortex encode the subjective value of different options during choice. However …
