Uncovering putative neural markers of risk avoidance

▸ We conducted a study of the neural basis of risk avoidance. ▸ Choosing to pass associated with precuneus and striatum responses to No-Risk trials. ▸ Real world risk avoidance correlated with precuneus activity during No-Risk trials. ▸ Precuneus and striatal responses to certainty may be markers of risk avoidance.
