NL refers to the No Learning model estimated for each subject, which assumed a reciprocation rate of 50%. NL – Init refers to the No Learning Initialization model, which estimated a parameter for each partner reflecting the probability of their reciprocation. LG refers to the overall Loss Gain reinforcement learning model estimated for each subject. LG – Init refers to an overall Loss Gain learning model that allowed for initial beliefs of partner reciprocation to vary. LG – Good/Neutral/Bad/Lottery reflect parameters from the LG model estimated separately by condition for each subject. *p < 0.05, -comparison group.
