This research aims to investigate the role of the dopamine system in human reinforcement learning using advanced imaging techniques. It will explore how dopamine influences learning from rewards and punishments, addressing previous methodological challenges in empirical studies.
Animal research has indicated an important role for the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and its neurotransmitter dopamine in reinforcement learning, an elementary form of learning on the basis of rewards and punishments.
In recent years, cognitive neuroscientists have used these animal data to develop various highly sophisticated theories on the role of the dopamine system in human reinforcement learning.
However, crucial empirical tests of these theories in human subjects have generally been lacki…
