  1. PVLV Model ofPhasic Dopamine Learning R. O’Reilly T. Hazy, J. Reynolds, G. Frank

  2. Temporal Difference Dopamine Reward Model Brain Dopamine Reward Response = Reward Occurred – Reward Predicted Schultz, Dayan & Montague 1997 DA ↑ Unexpected Reward DA ↑ DA↔ Expected Reward DA ↑ DA ↓ Unexpected No-Reward

  3. Phasic Dopamine Firing • Transition from Reward/US to CS onset (Schultz et al) • TD model says why, but not how (neural mechanisms) • And TD not a good fit for growing set of data..

  4. PVLV Model • Central Nucleus of the Amygdala (CNA) = CS -> DA • Ventral Striatum (NAc, patch) = US -> no DA

  5. PVLV Model • PV = Cancelling US burst • LV = Driving CS burst • No chaining: just simpler delta-rule/Rescorla Wagner

  6. PVLV Predictions • CS – driven DA is dissociable from US – driven: • Conditioned orienting & autoshaping to a CS = CNA, but not to US • CS DA is not subject to blocking effect • CS DA cannot drive further CS learning: 1st order (CNA) is dissociable from 2nd order (BLA), and no 3rd order • Time is just another input; no temporal chaining as in TD

  11. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF:Incentive Stroop Task Jeff Spielberg, with Wendy Heller, Gregory A. Miller, Laura Crocker, Stacie Warren, Christina Murdock-Jordan, post-doc Dave Towers, Brad Sutton & Tracey Wzalek at BIC, and Center colleagues Marie Banich & Randy O’Reilly Department of Psychology and Beckman Biomedical Imaging Center, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

  12. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Multiple ways to conceptualize emotional processes psychologically • Circumplex models, valence, bipolarity • Valence/arousal, positive affect/negative affect • Valence-based dichotomies prevalent (pos. vs. neg. emotionality/temperament/extraversion) • Fundamental motive systems that underlie behavior • Appetitive/approach/behavioral activation/incentive motivation • Defensive/withdrawal/behavioral inhibition/aversive motivation

  13. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • No comprehensive model(s) of brain function or structure integrating roles or mechanisms of brain regions implicated in emotion: • Left & Right DLPFC: positive/negative affect • dACC: anxiety • Amygdala: fear • Nucleus accumbens: reward/punishment • Posterior ACC: emotional autobiographical memory • Orbital frontal cortex: reward punishment • Distinct lines of research, most not integrated with each other

  14. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Lateralization a predominant feature of models of PFC organization for emotion • Divided according to superior/inferior lines • Davidson motivation model, also Harmon-Jones, Coan, & Allen, others • Approach/withdrawal mapping onto left vs. right DLPFC • Heller, Miller, Banich, and others’ valence/arousal model • Positive/negative valence mapping onto left vs. right DLPFC • Adds emotional arousal & right parietal activity

  18. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Incentive Stroop Task: • Engages motivational systems, emotional systems, and executive functions simultaneously • TASK • Press a button ASAP when a word appears • AFFECTIVE CONTEXT COMPONENT OF THE TASK • IGNORE the meaning of the word, which can be positive, negative, or neutral • Design allows us to examine the effect of the emotional content of the irrelevant information (affective context) on the ability to ignore that information

  19. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • MOTIVATIONAL COMPONENT OF THE TASK • Before each word is shown, participants see a cue which tells them whether they will win and/or lose money depending on how fast they push the button • If they push the button fast enough they get the positive outcome on that trial (i.e., win money or avoid losing money) • If they don’t push the button fast enough they get the negative outcome on that trial (i.e., lose money or miss winning money) • On some trials, they neither win nor lose money • Allows us to examine the effect of anticipating rewards and punishments on the ability to ignore irrelevant information

  20. For dollar sign on left: if it’s green, can win money if push button fast enough if it’s grey, can’t win money on that trial For dollar sign on right: if it’s red, can lose money if don’t push button fast enough if it’s grey, can’t lose money on that trial

  21. Fast enough = win money Too slow = do not win money Fast enough = win money Too slow = lose money Fast enough = do not lose money Too slow = lose money Do not win or lose money regardless if they are fast or slow

  23. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Recruiting 3 groups of subjects according to PANAS scores • High positive, low negative affect • High negative, low positive affect • Low negative, low positive affect • Participants are run in counterbalanced EEG/fMRI sessions • SCIDs & assessment of EF components via neuropsychological tests

  24. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Preliminary behavioral findings: • Emotional content of the irrelevant information affects ability to ignore that information • Pleasant or unpleasant words elicit slower RTs than do neutral words • Emotional words thus harder to ignore • Motivational context also affects the ability to ignore irrelevant information • RT faster on trials in which reward or punishment is possible • Thus, possible rewards and punishments make it easier to ignore irrelevant information • Findings indicate effects of both affective context and motivation on executive function (as measured by RT)

  25. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Activation in left DLPFC (yellow) when viewing cues signaling the potential for reward (associated with faster RTs) • Activation in right OFC (green) when receiving rewards (associated with faster RT) • Activation in left OFC (red) when receiving punishments (also associated with faster RT)

  26. Influence of Emotion/Reward & Punishment on EF • Preliminary results thus: • Confirm effects of both affective and motivational contexts on executive function • Replicate opposing patterns of lateralization for DLPFC and OFC • Allow us to examine timing of regional activity, connectivity, relationships of regional and temporal dynamics to emotional disposition • Can be extended to examine dysfunctional relationships in depression & anxiety

  27. Effects of Anxiety on Selection Among Competing Options Hannah R. Snyder & Yuko Munakata (Project 5) in collaboration with: Marie T. Banich (Project 1) Tim Curran & Erika Nyhus (Imaging Core) With consultation from Project 3

  28. Anxiety and Uncertainty • Anxious apprehension (worry) is linked to intolerance of uncertainty(e.g. Ladouceur, Talbot & Dugas, 1997), decision-making problems, and indecisiveness(e.g. Sachdev & Malhi, 2005). • Prominent symptoms of anxiety disorders including GAD and OCD. • Why? • Approach this question using our framework for understanding one aspect of EF: selection among competing options.

  29. Selection Among Competing Options • We constantly face the need to choose one option from among multiple valid choices. • e.g. grocery shopping, selecting a retirement plan, or choosing a word to express a thought. • Selecting between multiple options is time-consuming and effortful (e.g. Iyenger & Lepper, 2000; Sethi-Iyenger et al., 2004; Snyder & Munakata, 2008). • Left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC) is involved in selection (e.g. Thompson-Schill et al., 1997,1998; Schnur et al., 2009). • Illinois center colleagues Engels, Heller, & Miller have shown that left VLPFC is involved in anxious apprehension. • What specific mechanisms might support selection, and how might they be affected by anxiety?

  30. Selection Among Competing Options • Test neural network predictions about selection using a well-controlled language-production task: verb generation.

  31. Pyramidal Cell Pyramidal Cell - + - + GABAergic Interneurons Neural Network Model • Demonstrates that competitive, inhibitory dynamics among neurons in prefrontal cortical networks support selection among competing alternatives. • Amplify activity of most active representation and suppress activity of competing representations, via inhibitory, GABAergic interneurons.

  32. Neural Network Model • Suggest that prefrontal GABA function plays key role in selection and breakdown of this process. • Makes sense of findings which were previously disconnected from each other, linking anxiety to: • Reduced GABA(e.g. Kalueff & Nutt., 2007) • VLPFC dysfunction(e.g. Engles et al., 2007).

  33. Competitive Inhibition & Selection • Neural network predictions: • Anxiety (reduced neural inhibition) impairs selection and associated VLPFC activity, even in a simple, non-affective language-production task. • The GABA agonist midazolam (increased neural inhibition) improves selection. • Retrieval from semantic memory is unaffected. • These predictions were supported in 3 studies.

  34. Anxiety: Decreased Inhibition Impairs Selection Network Predictions Participants (RTs) • Reduced competitive inhibition in the VLPFC layer impairs selection. • High anxious apprehension participants have impaired selection. • No effect on retrieval.

  35. Anxiety: Decreased Inhibition Impairs VLPFC Function During Selection • Anxious apprehension correlates negatively with VLPFC activity during selection (when retrieval demands are low). • No correlation during retrieval. VLPFC ROI

  36. Midazolam: Increased Inhibition Improves Selection Network Predictions Participants (RTs) • Increased competitive inhibition in the VLPFC layer improves selection when retrieval demands are low. • Midazolam improves selection when retrieval demands are low. • No effect on retrieval.

  37. Conclusions • Neural network model suggests that competitive inhibitory dynamics in prefrontal networks are critical for selection. • As predicted by model, participants high in anxious apprehension (linked to reduced GABAergic function) show impaired selection but not retrieval. • Consistent with clinical evidence for decision-making problems and intolerance of uncertainty in anxiety disorders. • Participants high in anxious apprehension show reduced left VLPFC recruitment during selection. • Could represent failure to activate inhibitory interneurons.

  38. Conclusions (cont.) • As predicted by model, midazolam (GABA agonist) improves selection when retrieval demands are low. • Suggests GABA agonists may be beneficial in treating cognitive, in addition to affective, symptoms of anxiety disorders.

  39. Ongoing and Future Directions • Study with selected high and low anxiety participants across multiple selection tasks. • Comparing underdetermined to prepotent competition (behavioral and fMRI studies). • Effects of depression on controlled retrieval.

  42. Three Components of EFs • Inhibition • Stopping prepotent (dominant or automatic) responses (e.g., stop-signal) • Updating • Monitoring and rapid addition/deletion of the contents of working memory (e.g., n-back) • Shifting • Switching flexibly between tasks or mental sets (e.g., number-letter)
