Experimental protocol and setup. (A) The NP experimental protocol consists of a 30-s initial baseline and 40 trials. Each trial has four phases: up to 20-s NP decision task (Di ), 5-s rest (R2i−1), 10-s feedback (Fi ), and 5-s rest (R2i ) again before starting another block/trial for Di+1 trial. (where i = 1, 2, 3, …, 40) Each block lasts about 30–40 s. (B) A demonstration of the fNIRS optode-setting helmet on a dummy head, holding 25 pairs of light sources (red dots) and 23 detectors (blue dots) with channel numbers marked covering the pre-frontal and frontal regions. (C) The entire optode layout for the whole-head helmet; the holes within the dashed frames were not used to hold any optode in this study while the other holes are color-matched to those shown in (B) on the forehead.
