Selective alteration of human value decisions with medial frontal tDCS is predicted by changes in attractor dynamics

During value-based decision making, ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) is thought to support choices by tracking the expected gain from different outcomes via a competition-based process. Using a computational neurostimulation approach we asked how perturbing this region might alter this competi...
