Reduced sensitivity to sooner reward during intertemporal decision-making following insula damage in humans

Reduced sensitivity to sooner reward during intertemporal decision-making following insula damage in humans

During intertemporal choice, humans tend to prefer small-sooner rewards over larger-delayed rewards, reflecting temporal discounting (TD) of delayed outcomes. Functional neuroimaging evidence has implicated the insular cortex in time-sensitive decisions, yet it is not clear whether activity in this...
