Article Synopsis
- The study examined how people use feedback during categorization tasks, specifically focusing on conditions where participants earn or lose points based on their answers.
- The researchers found that the tail of the caudate, a brain region, showed the most activity when participants experienced both gains and losses, suggesting a heightened sensitivity to feedback type.
- Additionally, brain activity varied based on the difficulty of the task, with higher activity for stimuli near the decision boundary that yielded more points, indicating that both reward and loss influence decision-making in categorization.
