Specializations for reward-guided decision-making in the primate ventral prefrontal cortex
Open accessAbstract
The estimated values of choices, and therefore decision-making based on those values, are influenced by both the chance that the chosen items or goods can be obtained (availability) and their current worth (desirability) as well as by the ability to link the estimated values to choices (a process sometimes called credit assignment). In primates, the prefrontal cortex (PFC) has been thought to contribute to each of these processes; however, causal relationships between particular subdivisions of the PFC and specific functions have been difficult to establish. Recent lesion-based research studies have defined the roles of two different parts of the primate PFC - the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and the ventral lateral frontal cortex (VLFC) - and their subdivisions in evaluating each of these factors and in mediating credit assignment during reward-based decision-making.

The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Conversely, area 14 in the medial OFC/caudal vmPFC appears more important for comparing values of alternative options.”
From Prefrontal cortex and depression (2022) · cites this paper as [115]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“In summary, detailed parcellation studies in macaques have shown the importance of central regions of OFC in updating the valuations of expected outcomes on the basis of an animal's current state (area 13) and translating that information into goals for action selection (area 11).”
From Prefrontal cortex and depression (2022) · cites this paper as [115]
In the citing paper
“In a more recent study, damage to the lateral OFC (mainly area 12 as shown in Fig. 1, and extending around the inferior convexity, but described as VLPFC—ventrolateral prefrontal cortex) was found to impair the ability to make choices based on whether reward versus non-reward had been received (Rudebeck et al., 2017; Murray and Rudebeck, 2018)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
