Expectations of reward and efficacy guide cognitive control allocation.
TL;DR: In this article, the Expected Value of Control (EVOC) theory is used to predict the amount of mental effort we invest in a task and the reward we can expect if we perform well.
Group-Level EEG-Processing Pipeline for Flexible Single Trial-Based Analyses Including Linear Mixed Models.
TL;DR: An application of an EEG processing pipeline customizing EEGLAB and FieldTrip functions, specifically optimized to flexibly analyze EEG data based on single trial information, which is particularly advantageous for data with parametric within-subject covariates and multiple complex stimuli.
Goal congruency dominates reward value in accounting for behavioral and neural correlates of value-based decision-making.
TL;DR: Contrary to prevailing accounts, it is found that goal congruency dominates choice behavior and neural activity, and dissociable signals of expected reward are separately identified.
Response-based outcome predictions and confidence regulate feedback processing and learning.
TL;DR: This paper explored the hypothesis that surprise depends not only on comparing current events to past experience, but also on online evaluation of performance via internal monitoring, and found that people who are better at calibrating their confidence to the precision of their outcome predictions learn more quickly.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors provide a complementary perspective: how cognitive control research has informed understanding of decision-making, highlighting three particular areas of research where this critical interchange has occurred: how different types of goals shape the evaluation of choice options, how people use control to adjust the ways they make their decisions, and how people monitor decisions to inform adjustments to control at multiple levels and timescales.
