Motivation for Reward in the Virtual Environment

Understanding how the brain allocates effort in pursuit of rewards is a fundamental question of behavioral neuroscience. Modeling effort-based decision-making in the real world may require consideration of how effort-related information is incorporated as actions unfold within dynamic, naturalistic settings. This project uses a combination of virtual reality paradigms and functional neuroimaging to identify neural mechanisms supporting our willingness to work for rewards.
