The latest installment of @fluketc studies on how dopamine (DA) shapes learning rdcu.be/c3Ibf This was a tricky one; it combines a few ideas that together argue for a new way to understand DA function and account for data that evaded prior models. 1/n

Philosophers often assume that beliefs are *necessarily* responsive to evidence. But the belief that one should change one's beliefs according to evidence is not universal. Many people explicitly reject it. For evidence (& much more), see this great paper: journal.sjdm.org/20/200414/jdm2…

@jtdudman @meletislab @dav_robbe @WiringTheBrain @YttriLab @adrianhaith Was going to mention that Haith et at study earlier. On similar note - point is that categorically different actions are not selected in BG - lift arm or kick a ball. Goals are selected (cortically) and then a single action planned - BG might bias it. Latter not selection.

@WiringTheBrain This is one functional interpretation but there are many experimental data that do not align with such action selection theory. I think it important to be cautious and avoid presenting what is simply a hypothesis as if it is the definitive truth.

@WiringTheBrain @dav_robbe @blamlab @YttriLab That is indeed one view. On that view I have argued there is very little empirical support for the idea that the key competitive operation (selection) is occurring in striatum. There are several reasons for questioning the empirical evidence for that:

It's easy to reject papers. You can manufacture issues and sink them based on amorphous/vague notions such as novelty, impact, clarity, etc. Every paper has minor problems that you can amplify. It takes a lot more courage to argue to accept something.
