The value and uncertainty associated with choice alternatives constitute critical features
relevant for decisions. However, the manner in which reward and risk representations are …

Human decision-making requires the brain to fulfill neural computation of benefit and risk
and therewith a selection between options. It remains unclear how value-based neural …

Value-based decision-making involves multiple cortical and subcortical brain areas, but the
distributed nature of neurophysiological activity underlying economic choices in the human …

During decision making, valuation of different types of rewards may involve partially distinct
neural systems, but efficient choice behavior requires a common neural coding of stimulus …

When deciding between different options, individuals are guided by the expected (mean)
value of the different outcomes and by the associated degrees of uncertainty. We used …

Rational economics and finance surmise that choices decree from a conscious arbitration
between alternatives based on decision-theoretically computed values. Implicit in the …

Understanding how organisms deal with probabilistic stimulus-reward associations has
been advanced by a convergence between reinforcement learning models and primate …

Marginal utility theory prescribes the relationship between the objective property of the
magnitude of rewards and their subjective value. Despite its pervasive influence, however …

Choosing between equally valued options can be a conundrum, for which classical decision
theories predicted a prolonged response time (RT). Paradoxically, a rational decision-maker …

In decision-making under uncertainty, economic studies emphasize the importance of risk in
addition to expected reward. Studies in neuroscience focus on expected reward and …
