Good vibrations: brain oscillatory activity associated with reward and prediction error processing
In our daily life we are constantly adapting our behaviour on the basis of the results of our action. We need, therefore, complex mechanisms which allow us to create expectancies about our actions and to evaluate them on the bases of the real outcomes. In this talk we will present two neural oscillatory mechanisms underlying the processing of rewards, punishments and prediction errors and we will consider different accounts on their functional significance.
