Specific frontal cortical connectivity profiles. (A) AC fingerprints for the NAc subregions with target areas that met the criteria, these target areas were extracted from a finer‐gained frontal atlas. (B) Axial slices (Z = 58 mm) through the MNI152 standard brain with the AC areas overlaid regions that had a prominent connection with the shell‐like subdivision are wrapped in a white circle, while regions wrapped in black dotted circles are prominent connect with the core‐like subdivision. These roughly corresponded to (C) regions of the rostrolateral (two lateral dotted circles) and mediocaudal (medial dotted circle) prefrontal cortexes, which have been shown to be involved with a unified appetitive response to rewards and punishments, respectively [Kringelbach and Rolls, 2004].
