Neural Dynamics Underlying Impaired Autonomic and Conditioned Responses Following Amygdala and Orbitofrontal Lesions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A neural model is presented that explains how outcome-specific learning modulates affect, decision-making and Pavlovian conditioned approach responses. The model addresses how brain regions responsible for affective learning and habit learning interact ...

Food approach and food avoidance in young children : relation with reward sensitivity and punishment sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It has recently been suggested that individual differences in Reward Sensitivity and Punishment Sensitivity may determine how children respond to food. These temperamental traits reflect activity in two basic brain systems that respond to rewarding and ...

The Sensitivity of the Crayfish Reward System to Mammalian Drugs of Abuse

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
The idea that addiction occurs when the brain is not able to differentiate whether specific reward circuits were triggered by adaptive natural rewards or falsely activated by addictive drugs exist in several models of drug addiction.

Fat tissue accretion in children and adolescents : interplay between food responsiveness, gender, and the home availability of snacks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The appetitive trait "food responsiveness" is assumed to be a risk factor for adiposity gain primarily in obesogenic environments. So far, the reported results are inconsistent in school-aged children, possibly because these studies did not take into ...
