==dorsal ACC==

[[dACC]]

Hypotheses about its function include guiding reward-based decision making<ref>illiams, Z. M., Bush, G., Rauch, S. L., Cosgrove, G. R. & Eskandar, E. N. Human anterior cingulate neurons and the integration of monetary reward with motor responses.

It was found that dACC is involved in adapting behaviour.<ref>[http://ziv.mgh.harvard.edu/pdf/nature11239.pdf Sheth, Sameer A., Matthew K. Mian, Shaun R. Patel, Wael F. Asaad, Ziv M.
