Not So Uncertain at Last: Locus Coeruleus and Decision Making
A report by Payzan-LeNestour et al. (2013) in this issue of Neuron shows that the human locus coeruleus, a brain stem nucleus containing cell bodies of noradrenergic neurons, dynamically tracks the level of uncertainty about knowledge of the environment while making decisions.
متن کاملDecision making, the P3, and the locus coeruleus-norepinephrine system.
Psychologists and neuroscientists have had a long-standing interest in the P3, a prominent component of the event-related brain potential. This review aims to integrate knowledge regarding the neural basis of the P3 and to elucidate its functional role in information processing. The authors review evidence suggesting that the P3 reflects phasic activity of the neuromodulatory locus coeruleus-no...
متن کاملOptimization of Decision Making in Multilayer Networks: The Role of Locus Coeruleus
Previous theoretical work has shown that a single-layer neural network can implement the optimal decision process for simple, two-alternative forced-choice (2AFC) tasks. However, it is likely that the mammalian brain comprises multilayer networks, raising the question of whether and how optimal performance can be approximated in such an architecture. Here, we present theoretical work suggesting...
متن کاملDecision making under uncertain categorization
Two experiments investigated how category information is used in decision making under uncertainty and whether the framing of category information influences how it is used. Subjects were presented with vignettes in which the categorization of a critical item was ambiguous and were asked to choose among a set of actions with the goal of attaining the desired outcome for the main character in th...
