Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Correct>incorrect VS activation occurs for targets (HIT>MISS), foils (CR>FP), trials with motor responses (HIT>FP), and trials without motor responses (CR>MISS). → Satterthwaite Theodore D. M.D. 2012

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Third GLM modeling HIT, CR, MISS, FP separately, with one-sample t-tests in bilateral VS ROIs. The COR>INCOR effect "was seen in trials where there was a motor response present" and "also in trials where there were no motor responses".
"The correct > incorrect effect was seen in trials where there was a motor response present [HIT>FP contrast; left VS: T(303)=6.91, p<0.001; right VS: T(303)=6.93, p<0.001 ] and also in trials where there were no motor responses [CR>MISS contrast; left VS: T(303)=3.61, p<0.001; right VS: T(303)=2.67, p<0.004]."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Ventral striatum activation to correct responses is correlated with discrimination performance in youth — related
- Ventral striatum activation to correct responses peaks in mid-adolescence at approximately age 16 — related
- In youth performing an n-back task without feedback, bilateral ventral striatum activates more strongly to correct than incorrect responses — related
- Ventral striatum response to correct responses scales with working memory load in youth — related
- Post-error slowing occurs in the 2-back condition despite absence of feedback — related
- Adolescents show disproportionately greater false alarms on happy no-go trials with heightened ventral striatum activity — related
