    • Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation above the Medial Prefrontal Cortex Facilitates Decision-Making following Periods of Low Outcome Controllability 

      Csifcsak, Gabor; Bjørkøy, Jorunn; Kuyateh, Sarjo; Reithe, Haakon; Mittner, Matthias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-25)
      Recent studies suggest that choice behavior in reinforcement learning tasks is shaped by the level of outcome controllability. In particular, Pavlovian bias (PB) seems to be enhanced under low levels of control, manifesting in approach tendencies toward rewards and response inhibition when facing potential losses. The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been implicated both in evaluating outcome ...
