Comparing Discounting of Potentially Real Rewards and Losses by Means of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2022
AimDelay discounting (DD) has often been investigated in the context of decision making whereby individuals attribute decreasing value to rewards in the distant future. Less is known about DD in the context of negative consequences. The aim of this pilot

White-matter tract connecting anterior insula to nucleus accumbens predicts greater future motivation in adolescents

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2021
The motivation to approach or avoid incentives can change during adolescence. Advances in neuroimaging allow researchers to characterize specific brain circuits that underlie these developmental changes.

Does incentive-elicited nucleus accumbens activation differ by substance of abuse? An examination with adolescents

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2015
Numerous questions surround the nature of reward processing in the developing adolescent brain, particularly in regard to polysubstance use. We therefore sought to examine incentive-elicited brain activation in the context of three common substances of ...
