Predictions and the brain: how musical sounds become rewarding

Predictions and the brain: how musical sounds become rewarding

Highlights • Dopamine release in mesolimbic reward circuits leads to reinforcement tied to predictions and outcomes. • Musical pleasure involves complex interactions between dopamine systems and cortical areas. • Individual variability in superior temporal cortex may explain varied musical preferenc...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Dopamine release in mesolimbic reward circuits leads to reinforcement tied to predictions and outcomes. • Musical pleasure involves complex interactions between dopamine systems and cortical areas. • Individual variability in superior temporal cortex may explain varied musical preferences. • Cognitive, auditory, affective, and reward circuits interact to make music pleasurable.
