Temporal regularities shape perceptual decisions and striatal dopamine signals.
To optimize behaviour, animals and humans may learn about temporal regularities present in the environment. For example, a traffic light that recently turned green can be expected to remain green for a while. Conversely, a yellow traffic light can rapidly change to red, thus prompting a driver to decelerate. This paper presents experiments shedding light on how our brains learn about such temporal regularities to adjust behaviour appropriately.
