Most of the key decisions that determine our economic success involve the choice between something easy that provides lower returns, or something difficult that, should we succeed, provides great reward. Understanding how our brains make such decisions is one of the primary goals of the academic disciplines of cognitive and behavioural neuroscience. A lot of useful information is obtained from studying the decision making of healthy volunteers in laboratory-based games, but it is often hard to determine whether relationships observed between, say, brain activity and choice patterns indicate that a brain region is

大多数决定我们经济成功的关键决策都涉及在提供较低回报的简单决策与提供巨大回报的困难决策之间做出选择。了解我们的大脑如何做出这样的决定是认知和行为神经科学学科的主要目标之一。通过研究健康志愿者在实验室游戏中的决策过程，可以获得很多有用的信息，但通常很难确定观察到的大脑活动和选择模式之间的关系是否表明大脑区域是
