Individual variation in incentive salience attribution and accumbens dopamine transporter expression and function
BF Singer, B Guptaroy, CJ Austin, I Wohl… - European Journal of …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Cues (conditioned stimuli; CS s) associated with rewards can come to motivate behavior, but
there is considerable individual variation in their ability to do so. For example, a lever‐CS …

Circuit directionality for motivation: lateral accumbens-pallidum, but not pallidum-accumbens, connections regulate motivational attraction to reward cues
EB Smedley, A DiLeo, KS Smith - Neurobiology of learning and memory, 2019 - Elsevier
Sign-tracking behavior, in which animals interact with a cue that predicts reward, provides
an example of how incentive salience can be attributed to cues and elicit motivation. The …

The sensory features of a food cue influence its ability to act as an incentive stimulus and evoke dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens core
The sensory properties of a reward-paired cue (a conditioned stimulus; CS) may impact the
motivational value attributed to the cue, and in turn influence the form of the conditioned …

Dynamic encoding of incentive salience in the ventral pallidum: dependence on the form of the reward cue
AM Ahrens, LM Ferguson, TE Robinson, JW Aldridge - eneuro, 2018 - eneuro.org
Some rats are especially prone to attribute incentive salience to a cue (conditioned stimulus,
CS) paired with food reward (sign-trackers, STs), but the extent they do so varies as a …

Toward isolating the role of dopamine in the acquisition of incentive salience attribution
