Iowa Gambling Task: There is more to consider than long-term outcome.Using a linear equation model to disentangle the impact of outcome and frequency of gains and losses.

The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) has been widely used to assess differences in decision-making under uncertainty. Recently, several studies have shown that healthy subjects do not meet the basic predictions of the task (i.e. prefer options with positive long-term outcome), hence questioning its basic as...
