Developmental fMRI reward studies.

Study Main findings Age range of adolescent group Comparison group Task design Analysis focus Baseline
Bjork et al. (2004) Adolescents show hypo-responsive striatalactivity relative to adults 12–17 Adults (ages 21–28) Reward magnitude Anticipationof reward Entire trial
May et al. (2004) No comparison group 9–16 None Reward probability Entire trial First timepoint of each trial
Ernst et al. (2005) Adolescents show hyper-responsive striatal activity relative to adults 9–17 Adults (ages 20–40) Reward magnitude and probability Feedback (outcome) Subset of fixation trials
Galván et al. (2006) Adolescents show hyper-responsive striatal activity relative to child and adults 13–17 Children (ages 7–11) and adults (ages 23–29) Reward magnitude Anticipation Intertrial interval
van Leijenhorst et al. (2009) Adolescents show hyper-responsive striatal activity relative to children and adults 14–15 Children (ages 10–12) and adults (ages 18–23) Reward probability Anticipation and feedback No baseline
Geier et al. (2009) Adolescents show hypo-responsive striatal activity to reward cues and hyper-responsive activity in anticipation of reward relative to adults 13–17 Adults (ages 18–30) Reward probability Cue, anticipati-on and feedback Implicit baseline(e.g., non-task activation)
