Dopamine Agonists in Parkinson's Disease Decouple Risk-Taking from Reward-Paired Cues by Enhancing Risky Choice in Their Absence

Katherine Muksuris, Ellen Flynn, Tanya L. Feng…·Mariya V. Cherkasova

This study shows that dopamine agonists combined with levodopa increase risky choices in Parkinson's patients even without reward-paired cues.
