Huge thanks to my mentors for supporting this project! This one's been in the works for awhile, and it's such a joy to see the last empirical chapter of my dissertation out in the world. Excited to continue asking further Qs in this space! (7/7)

We were excited to see evidence of emotion-reward value integration across age, and that the integration process changed over time according to goal-relevancy, especially in older participants. (6/n)

higher-fidelity reward learning than children. Moreover, in decisions (+other measures) that followed the RL task, reward info was prioritized over emotion info increasingly with age, suggesting that previously goal-relevant info dominates choice into adulthood. (5/n)

emotion cues were incidental to task goals. Through statistical and computational modeling, we saw that emotion cues impeded reward capture earlier in the task, but participants did learn from rewards by the end. However, adolescents+adults demonstrated (4/n)

We used emotion and reward as info sources in a RL task because they contribute to estimates of value; we tested children through adults on the task because emotion and reward are super salient info sources during adolescence. Critically, we made reward outcomes goal-relevant in the task but (3/n)
