Table 2.

Shown are the numbers of response-selective neurons that were significantly selective for each of the four outcomes, or for two of the outcomes. “Same-value-preferring” refers to neurons that preferred both high-value outcomes (big and short) or both low-value outcomes (small and long). “Opposite-value-preferring” refers to neurons that preferred a high-value outcome (big or short) in one manipulation and a low-value outcome (small or long) in the other. Neurons preferring two same-value outcomes were no more frequent than predicted by chance (by Chi-square test, p < 0.01).
