Behavioral and Neural Representations of Subjective Effort Cost (NCT04041154)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this proposal is to understand the common and distinct behavioral and neural representations of subjective effort valuation, and how these representations are influenced by fatigue and changes in motivation. It is hypothesized that the brain will use overlapping and distinct neural circuits to represent cognitive and physical effort value, and that fatigue and enhanced motivation will influence the subjective value of effort.
