Value and Saliency
Saliency

A task design to control for saliency
signal from value signal
• 60 food items
• Liking-rating: –2 (not at all) ~ 2 (very much)
• “How much would you like to eat this item at the end of the experiment”

Hypothesizing a separate salience
signal from stimuli value signal
• The pattern we are looking for
from the brain:
SV

mOFC, rACC, dPCC responses were
correlated with stimuli value signal, rather
than saliency signal
= slope
How well the brain responses follow
Rostral anterior cingulate
cortex (rACC)
Dorsal posterior
cingulate cortex
n.s. =
not significant
Medial orbitofrontal cortex (mOFC)

Measure goal value separately before a
choice task
Hare et al., 2008, J Neurosci
1. 50 bidding trials
2. 300 trials of a
forced-choice
task (Yes/No)
• Not to eat for 4hr • Stay for 30 min and eat the snack
• $60 participation fee
• $5 extra to purchase a snack (familiar chips or candy bars)
• Keep any money by oneself if not used
13
Providing choice independent cost and
gain/loss separates different value signals
Hare et al., 2008, J Neurosci
• Price:
-3~3
• Action independent
gain/loss:
-3~3

Providing choice independent cost and
gain/loss separates different value signals
Hare et al., 2008, J Neurosci
• Price:
-3~3
• Action independent
gain/loss:
-3~3
• Goal value trial
no price; no gain/loss
15
Decisions are made based on the
combination of value signals
Hare et al., 2008, J Neurosci
• Action independent
gain/loss: -3~2

Does the brain encode values of different
classes of goods in the same manner?
• Amount of money
• Food (sweet and salty snack foods, candy bars and chips)
20
Task procedure for common value
signals
Chib et al., 2009, J Neurosci
• 20 money
• 20 trinkets
• 20 foods
• Not to eat for 4hr • Stay for 30 min and eat the snack
• $60 participation fee
• $4 extra to purchase each classes of goods ($12 in total)
