Dynamic modulation of decision biases by brainstem arousal systems

Dynamic modulation of decision biases by brainstem arousal systems

Decision-makers often arrive at different choices when faced with repeated presentations of the same evidence. Variability of behavior is commonly attributed to noise in the brain’s decision-making machinery. We hypothesized that phasic responses of brainstem arousal systems are a significant source...
