The Dopaminergic Midbrain Encodes the Expected Certainty about Desired Outcomes
Dopamine plays a key role in learning; however, its exact function in decision making and choice remains unclear. Recently, we proposed a generic model based on active (Bayesian) inference wherein dopamine encodes the precision of beliefs about optimal policies. Put simply, dopamine discharges reflect the confidence that a chosen policy will lead to desired outcomes. We designed a novel task to...
متن کاملCautious Expected Utility and the Certainty Effect∗
Many violations of the Independence axiom of Expected Utility can be traced to subjects’ attraction to risk-free prospects. The key axiom in this paper, Negative Certainty Independence (Dillenberger, 2010), formalizes this tendency. Our main result is a utility representation of all preferences over monetary lotteries that satisfy Negative Certainty Independence together with basic rationality ...

مطالعات قبلی بازار بیمه را به صورت کلی در نظر می گرفتند اما در این مطالعه صنعت بیمه به عنوان متغیر مستفل به بیمه های زندگی و غیر زندگی شکسته شده و هم چنین بیمه های زندگی به رشته های مختلف بیمه ای که در بازار بیمه ایران سهم قابل توجهی دارند تقسیم میشود. با استفاده از روشهای اقتصاد سنجی داده های برای دوره های 48-89 از مراکز ملی داده جمع آوری شد سپس با تخمین مدل خود بازگشتی برداری همراه با تعدادی ...
15 صفحه اولHypothalamic modulation of the midbrain dopaminergic system
Ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopaminergic (DAergic) and GABAergic neurons are critically involved in mechanisms of reward, reinforcement and emotional arousal. The hypothalamus regulates the homeostatic drive to eat and sends a massive output to the VTA, including projections from neurons containing orexins, the novel neuropeptides, which potently modulate arousal and feeding. Single-unit extra...
متن کاملFunctional imaging of the human dopaminergic midbrain.
Invasive recording of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area (SN/VTA) of behaving animals suggests a role for these neurons in reward learning and novelty processing. In humans, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is currently the only non-invasive event-related method to measure SN/VTA activity, but it is debated to what extent fMRI enables inference about...
