Adaptive decision-making requires weighing the potential benefits of actions against their effort costs. Previous research has suggested that the dorsomedial frontal cortex (DMF), but not the ventromedial frontal cortex (VMF), is involved in such effort-based decisions. Lesions to the DMF, but not VMF, in rats result in a reduced willingness to expend effort for rewards. However, less is known about the role of the human DMF and VMF in overcoming effort costs, with studies in humans so far limited to correlative imaging techniques. Furthermore, work to date has largely focused on effort-reward trade-offs, leaving open which of the several component processes underlying effort-based decision making relies on either of these brain regions.
