Figure 8. A brain circuit and factors involved in altruistic choices.

Figure 8

a, Schematic model of the involvement of the BLA-PFC reciprocal connections in social decision making. Green circle = normal, red cross = impaired. b, Influence of multiple factors on the SDM task (n=146 mice). Average decision preference score (stable performance for the last three days) considering the impact of multiple factors (from 1 to 5 factors simultaneously, One-way ANOVA, Welch’s test, F(17, 67.28)=9.03, p<0.0001). *p<0.05. Right bar = mean (with blue as highest preference for altruistic choices, red as highest preference for selfish choices). Box plots: center = median, box = quartiles, whiskers = min and max.
