Temporally Extended Dopamine Responses to Perceptually Demanding Reward-Predictive Stimuli
Open accessAbstract
Midbrain dopamine neurons respond to reward-predictive stimuli. In the natural environment reward-predictive stimuli are often perceptually complicated. Thus, to discriminate one stimulus from another, elaborate sensory processing is necessary. Given that previous studies have used simpler types of reward-predictive stimuli, it has yet to be clear whether and, if so, how dopamine neurons obtain reward information from perceptually complicated stimuli. To investigate this, we recorded the activities of monkey dopamine neurons while they were performing discrimination between two coherent motion directions in random-dot motion stimuli. These coherent directions were paired with different magnitudes of reward. We found that dopamine neurons showed reward-predictive responses to random-dot motion stimuli. Moreover, dopamine neurons showed temporally extended activity correlated with changes in reward prediction (i.e., reward prediction error) from coarse to fine scales between initial motion detection and subsequent motion discrimination phases. Noticeably, dopamine reward-predictive responses became differential in a later phase than previously reported. This response pattern was consistent with the time course of processing required for the estimation of expected reward value that parallels the motion direction discrimination processing. The results demonstrate that dopamine neurons are able to reflect the reward value of perceptually complicated stimuli, and suggest that dopamine neurons use the moment-to-moment reward prediction associated with environmental stimuli to compute a reward prediction error.

The initial activation is sensitive to the time of stimulus occurrence and thus codes a temporal-event prediction error.
“True to the notion that dopamine neurons are involved in temporal prediction-error coding, the initial activation is sensitive to the time of stimulus occurrence and thus codes a temporal-event prediction error33.”

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.
