Surprise disrupts cognition via a fronto-basal ganglia suppressive mechanism

TL;DR: It is suggested that surprise interrupts cognition via the same fronto-basal ganglia mechanism that interrupts action, which motivates a new neural theory of how cognition is interrupted, and how distraction arises after surprising events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dopamine-Dependent Loss Aversion during Effort-Based Decision-Making.
TL;DR: It is shown that healthy human individuals exert more effort to minimize punishment than to maximize reward (loss aversion) and that dopamine-dependent loss aversion is crucial for explaining effort-based decision-making.

Dopamine-dependent loss aversion during effort-based decision-making
TL;DR: It is shown that healthy individuals exert more effort to minimise punishment than to maximise reward in effort-based decision-making, which could have important implications for the understanding of clinical disorders that show a reduced willingness to exert effort in the pursuit of reward.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Implicit Plan Still Overrides an Explicit Strategy During Visuomotor Adaptation Following Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of the Cerebellum
TL;DR: This study did not provide any further evidence of a specific role of the cerebellum in implicit motor adaptation, but its behavioral findings replicate those in the seminal study by Mazzoni and Krakauer (2006).
