3.What evidence suggests that vmPFC activity is NOT explained by non-value factors?
vmPFC activity increases for higher willingness to pay ratings
vmPFC activity cannot be explained by motor preparation OR salience
Damage to vmPFC causes more GARP violations.
vmPFC encodes value even before motor actions can be prepared so cannot be explained by motor preparation that correlates with value.
vmPFC activity correlates linearly with willingness to pay ratings but not with salience
