Executive Control and Model-Based Decision Making
Executive Control and Model-Based Decision Making
Within instrumental behavior, more complex goal-directed decision making can be distinguished from habitual responding. This is illustrated by comparing model-based vs. model-free decision making and by explaining its relevance in addictive disorders. Model-based decision making aims at constructing a map of the world, while habitual decisions prune a “decision tree” and thus facilitate rather automatic responding.
