Dual dopaminergic teaching signals are used to learn value-based or frequency-based decision-making strategies. Reward prediction errors are used to update the value of options allowing animals to choose the most valuable option. Action prediction errors are used to update how frequently an option has been chosen allowing animals to choose the most common option. Credit: Sainsbury Wellcome Centre
