Motivation alters response bias and neural activation patterns in a perceptual decision-making task

Highlights ► Examine the effect of motivation on perceptual decision-making. ► Motivation altered sustained activation across perceptual decision-making regions. ► A more liberal response bias was used when negatively motivated. ► The shift in bias positively correlated with increased left DLPFC act...
