简要总结
This research study examines the contribution of orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) networks to learning reward identity expectations.
详细描述
This study is designed to examine the contribution of OFC networks to reward identity learning. It will use network-targeted TMS to test whether OFC is necessary for reward identity learning. Healthy human subjects will perform a three-reward reversal learning task after either TMS or sham stimulation while fMRI data are acquired. This is a randomized, within-subject, cross-over study.
