TLDR
Data support the notion that neurons in orbitofrontal cortex code reward information in a flexible and adaptive manner during behavioral changes after novel stimuli, and show two major forms of changes during learning.

Getting Formal with Dopamine and Reward

TL;DR: Recent neurophysiological studies reveal that neurons in certain brain structures carry specific signals about past and future rewards, and the optimal use of rewards in voluntary behavior would benefit from interactions between the signals.

Behavioral Theories and the Neurophysiology of Reward

TL;DR: The scientific investigation of behavioral processes by animal learning theory and economic utility theory has produced a theoretical framework that can help to elucidate the neural correlates for reward functions in learning, goal-directed approach behavior, and decision making under uncertainty.

Neurocognitive mechanisms of cognitive control: the role of prefrontal cortex in action selection, response inhibition, performance monitoring, and reward-based learning.

TL;DR: Examining some of the main constituent processes of cognitive control as involved in dynamic decision making: goal-directed action selection, response activation and inhibition, performance monitoring, and reward-based learning finds medial frontal cortex is found to be involved in performance monitoring.

Multiple reward signals in the brain

TL;DR: Recent neurophysiological studies in primates that have revealed that neurons in a limited number of brain structures carry specific signals about past and future rewards provide the first step towards an understanding of how rewards influence behaviour before they are received.

Multiple Dopamine Functions at Different Time Courses

TL;DR: Dopamine is involved in mediating the reactivity of the organism to the environment at different time scales, from fast impulse responses related to reward via slower changes with uncertainty, punishment, and possibly movement to the tonic enabling of postsynaptic motor, cognitive, and motivational systems deficient in Parkinson's disease.

Predictive Reward Signal of Dopamine Neurons

TL;DR: Dopamine systems may have two functions, the phasic transmission of reward information and the tonic enabling of postsynaptic neurons.

The prefrontal cortex

TL;DR: The Prefrontal Cortex, Fifth Edition, provides users with a thoroughly updated version of this comprehensive work that has historically served as the classic reference on this part of the brain.
