Schematic Display of the Lottery Choice Task and Blood-Oxygen-Level-Dependent Responses to Risk (Coefficient of Variation).

Note. (A) In the lottery choice task, adolescents were asked to choose between pairs of uncertain gambles. For each gamble, there was a high and low monetary outcome, each associated with a specific probability. The associations between outcomes and probabilities are represented with corresponding colors (orange or blue). (B) Each trial consisted of a decision phase, a fixation phase, an outcome phase, and an inter-trial-interval (ITI). (C) During the decision phase increased activation was found in the insula (INS) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) during riskier gambles as was indicated by the coefficient of variation (CV).
