Enhance Your Chance with the TANs: Tonically Active Neurons Support Learning in the Ventral Striatum
The striatum is crucial for the correct learning and control of goal-directed behavior and habitual actions. Here in this issue of Neuron, Atallah et al. (2014) show that both reinforcement-based learning and control parameters are reflected in the neural activity of the ventromedial striatum.
متن کاملDifferences between Dorsal and Ventral Striatum in the Sensitivity of Tonically Active Neurons to Rewarding Events
Within the striatum, cholinergic interneurons, electrophysiologically identified as tonically active neurons (TANs), represent a relatively homogeneous group in terms of their functional properties. They display typical pause in tonic firing in response to rewarding events which are of crucial importance for reinforcement learning. These responses are uniformly distributed throughout the dorsal...
متن کاملInfluence of predictive information on responses of tonically active neurons in the monkey striatum.
Influence of predictive information on responses of tonically active neurons in the monkey striatum. J. Neurophysiol. 80: 3341-3344, 1998. We investigated how the expectation of a signal of behavioral significance influences the activity of tonically active neurons in the striatum of two monkeys performing a simple reaction time task under two conditions, an uncued condition in which the trigge...
متن کاملwillingness to communicate in the iranian context: language learning orientation and social support
why some learners are willing to communicate in english, concurrently others are not, has been an intensive investigation in l2 education. willingness to communicate (wtc) proposed as initiating to communicate while given a choice has recently played a crucial role in l2 learning. it was hypothesized that wtc would be associated with language learning orientations (llos) as well as social suppo...
Responses of tonically active neurons in the monkey striatum discriminate between motivationally opposing stimuli.
The striatum is involved in the control of appetitively motivated behavior. We found previously that tonically active neurons (TANs) in the monkey striatum show discriminative responses to different stimuli that are appetitive or aversive. However, these differential responses may reflect the sensory qualities of the stimulus rather than its motivational value. In the present study, we sought t...
