Responses to monetary reward in humans have been assessed in a number of recent
functional imaging studies, and it is clear that the neuronal substrates of financial …

The response of human reward systems to different reinforcers, including food, drugs and
money, has been investigated in a number of recent functional neuroimaging studies. They …

Reward is one of the most important influences shaping behavior. Single-unit recording and
lesion studies in experimental animals have implicated a number of regions in response to …

Functional imaging studies in recent years have confirmed the involvement of orbitofrontal
cortex (OFC) in human reward processing and have suggested that OFC responses are …

Comparative studies have implicated striatal and mesial forebrain circuitry in the generation
of autonomic, endocrine, and behavioral responses for incentives. Using blood oxygen level …

BACKGROUND: Clinical impressions and preclinical work suggest that posttraumatic stress
disorder (PTSD) might be associated with dysfunctional reward processing. To pursue this …

The function of the mesial prefrontal cortex (MPFC: including Brodman areas 10/12/32)
remains an enigma. Current theories suggest a role in representing internal information …

Human behaviour is generally guided by the anticipation of potential outcomes that are
considered to be rewarding. Reward processing can thus be dissected into a phase of …

This review outlines recent findings from human neuroimaging concerning the role of a
highly interconnected network of brain areas including orbital and medial prefrontal cortex …

Functional neuroimaging research in humans has identified a number of brain areas that are
activated by the delivery of primary and secondary reinforcers. The present study …
