BACKGROUND: Dysfunctional reward processing, accompanied by a limited ability to
tolerate reward delays, has been proposed as an important feature in attention …

BACKGROUND: Mesocorticolimbic neurocircuitry and impulsivity have both been implicated
in pathological gambling (PG) and in reward processing. However, the neural …

Over the past twenty years there has been an increasing number of brain imaging studies on
the mechanisms underlying reward motivation in humans. This narrative review describes …

In this study, we investigated neural responses during resting-state and reward-task-based
fMRI and how these related to individual differences in self-reported reward sensitivity …

Rationale Animal studies indicate that dopamine pathways in the ventral striatum code for
the motivational salience of both rewarding and aversive stimuli, but evidence for this …

Reward processing impairments have been linked with positive and negative symptoms of
schizophrenia. Here, we performed a coordinate-based meta-analysis that combined eleven …

Previous reports have described that neural activities in midbrain dopamine areas are
sensitive to unexpected reward delivery and omission. These activities are correlated with …

Introduction: Neuroleptic dysphoria is discussed as a serious side effect of antipsychotic
medication. One aspect of this condition, a reduced motivation to reach potential rewards …

An important symptom of major depressive disorder (MDD) is the inability to experience
pleasure, possibly due to a dysfunction of the reward system. Despite promising insights …

Psychosis has been associated with aberrant brain activity concurrent with both the
anticipation and integration of monetary outcomes. The extent to which abnormal reward …
