Reward components inducing the two phasic dopamine response components. The initial component (blue) detects the event before having identified its value. It increases with sensory impact (physical salience), novelty (novelty/surprise salience), generalization to rewarded stimuli, and reward context. This component is coded as temporal event prediction error (389). The second component (red) codes reward value (as reward prediction error).
