Belöningsprediktor
Belöningsprediktor is a term used in neuroscience and psychology to describe a computational model or neural process that anticipates the reward value of a future event. Essentially, it is a system that predicts how rewarding an outcome will be. This prediction is crucial for guiding behavior, as organisms tend to act in ways that maximize expected rewards.
The concept of a reward predictor is often associated with reinforcement learning theories. In these models,
In the brain, areas such as the ventral striatum, orbitofrontal cortex, and dopaminergic pathways are thought
Understanding reward predictors helps researchers explain a wide range of phenomena, including decision-making, habit formation, addiction,
