Figure 5. — Neuronal correlates of expected precision in the brain. (A) Using a hand-drawn ROI for the SN/VTA, we detected substantial effects for expected precision in both the substantia nigra as well as the ventral tegmental area: SPM thresholded at P < 0.005 (uncorrected) and masked for the midbrain for display purposes. SPM thresholded at P < 0.005 (uncorrected) and masked for the midbrain for display purposes. (B) At the whole-brain level, we found distributed and strong effects of precision in prefrontal, inferotemporal, and parietal regions as well as in the striatum and anterior insular cortex. SPM thresholded at P < 0.005 (uncorrected) and masked for the midbrain for display purposes.
