Reward probability and timing uncertainty alter the effect of dorsal raphe serotonin neurons on patience
Activation of serotonin neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus promotes patience in waiting for future rewards. Here the authors show that this effect is maximal for high probability reward or high temporal reward uncertainty suggesting that it boosts the prior probability of reward.
