Topic: complex choice

Integrating information is particularly crucial when decisions contain complex information. In decision neuroscience, it has been widely studied how overall decision value is encoded in the brain, but how information is integrated prior to encoding overall value remains largely unclear. Recently, our neuroimaging study has shown that the lateral frontopolar cortex (FPl), a uniquely well-developed region in the human brain, engaged specifically in complex choice but not in simple choice (Law et al., 2023). Aided by an artificial neural network, we found that FPl involved a parallel processing t
