The paper shows that people adjust their mental effort based on expected reward and the efficacy of effort, supported by EEG data.

The paper investigates how cognitive effort and reward valuation change during a prolonged task using electrophysiological measures from the anterior cingulate cortex.

This study investigates neural responses to rewards after cognitive effort or boredom, finding larger feedback negativity in the boredom condition compared to control.

The paper investigates how conflict negativity (CN) correlates with decision-making in financial contexts, showing it predicts indecision and is influenced by subjective value perceptions.

This study models subjective conflict during intertemporal choice and finds that midfrontal theta and pupil dilation track both conflict and surprising ease of decisions.
