...While reward prediction errors have long been established as promoting learning and decision making, their role in long-term memory has only been appreciated more recently (e.g., Wimmer et al. 2014; Rouhani et al. 2018, 2020; Jang et al. 2019; Ergo et al. 2020; Rouhani and Niv 2021)....

...These studies have generally shown memory benefits for stimuli appearing during a reward prediction error (Wimmer et al. 2014; Davidowet al. 2016; De Loof et al. 2018; Rouhani et al. 2018; Jang et al. 2019; Kalbe and Schwabe 2019; Ergo et al. 2020; Rouhani and Niv 2021)....

...…their at) once they’ve learned the average values of the reward categories, we tested a model with exponential decay of the learning rate over time (Sutton and Barto, 1998; model: ‘RW-D’): at ¼ hþN e ltc ; (5) where N is the initial value, l is the decay constant, and tc is the trial number for…...

...Experiment 2, which included RPEs at cue, allowed us to test whether a putative (signed) dopaminergic RPE, which moves from reward outcome to the cue predicting reward over learning (Barto, 1995; Montague et al., 1996; Schultz et al., 1997), enhances memory for cue events....

...Over the course of learning, this dopaminergic RPE transfers from unpredictable reward outcome to the cue predicting the reward (Schultz et al., 1997)....

...As mentioned, one dominant hypothesis is that dopaminergic midbrain signals convey signed RPEs to target areas (Barto, 1995; Montague et al., 1996; Schultz et al., 1997)....
