Learning is induced because of surprise. The dACC is concerned more with attention and motor control processes involved in behavioral adjustment. The dopamine RPE system is the process from which a learning is happening[3].
The Ventral Stratium is positivly corrlated with effort, and thus it is sought to be involved in motivation[4]
