“…Lesions or inactivation of mPFC affect the ability of organisms to adapt when contingencies between stimuli, actions, and outcomes are changed during extinction learning ( Quirk and Mueller, 2008 ; Peters et al, 2009 ; Caballero et al, 2019 ; Porter and Sepulveda-Orengo, 2020 ; Green and Bouton, 2021 ; Russo et al, 2021 ). Electrophysiological recordings have identified transient post-decision signals in cingulate cortices of humans, monkeys, and rodents that indicate when rewards are received, errors are made, or expected reward not delivered ( Gemba et al, 1986 ; Ito et al, 2003 ; Botvinick et al, 2004 ; Matsumoto et al, 2007 ; Totah et al, 2009 ; Horst and Laubach, 2012 ; Li et al, 2019 ; Kao et al, 2020 ). Figure 1 shows error-related responses recorded after unreinforced incorrect choice responses in the DNMTP task.…”
