Overview

Computational modeling reveals reduced model-based control in individuals with gambling disorder, suggesting neural factors remain intact.

Key Points

  • Core finding highlights reduced model-based control in gambling disorder, affecting decision-making and performance.
  • Behavioral analyses showed distinct impairments in response times and choice patterns in the gambling group.
  • Neural representations connected to task structure and reward feedback were largely intact in individuals with gambling disorder.
  • Insights into neurocomputational models suggest complexities in behavioral dysregulation related to gambling disorder.
