Social Network Modulation of Reward-Related Signals
Open accessAbstract
Everyday goals and experiences are often shared with others who may hold different places within our social networks. We investigated whether the experience of sharing a reward differs with respect to social network. Twenty human participants played a card guessing game for shared monetary outcomes with three partners: a computer, a confederate (out of network), and a friend (in network). Participants subjectively rated the experience of sharing a reward more positively with their friends than the other partners. Neuroimaging results support participants' subjective reports, as ventral striatal BOLD responses were more robust when sharing monetary gains with a friend as compared to the confederate or computer, suggesting a higher value for sharing with an in-network partner. Interestingly, ratings of social closeness covaried with this activity, resulting in a significant partner × closeness interaction; exploratory analysis showed that only participants reporting higher levels of closeness demonstrated partner-related differences in striatal BOLD response. These results suggest that reward valuation in social contexts is sensitive to distinctions of social network, such that sharing positive experiences with in-network others may carry higher value.

The experience and evaluation of an objectively quantifiable reward such as a $2 gain on a gamble is modified by the presence of another person.
“For example, the experience and evaluation of an objectively quantifiable reward such as a $2 gain on a gamble is modified by the presence of another person 54.”

When a monetary gain is shared with a friend (compared to a stranger or a computer), people rate the experience as more exciting, and striatum activity is increased.
“Specifically, when a monetary gain is shared with a friend (compared to a stranger or a computer) people rate the experience as more exciting, and striatum activity is increased (see Figure 2).”

Humans may value the experience of cooperation over and above the objective value of rewards yielded by cooperation.
“Along with other research on shared rewards 54 (see Figure 2), this research suggests that humans may value the experience of cooperation over and above the objective value of rewards yielded by cooperation 73, 74.”

Neural circuits that regulate responses to reward-relevant stimuli are also involved in processing social rewards and may operate to reinforce connections with others.
“neural circuits that regulate responses to reward-relevant stimuli (e.g., striatum, orbitofrontal cortex) are also involved in processing social rewards (e.g., receiving positive social feedback; Izuma, Saito, & Sadato, 2008), and thus may operate to reinforce our connections with others”

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.
