It seems that that the vmPFC calculate the valuse of different options that are comming from the dlPFC[1][2].
The vmPFC is also connected to self control[3]. Patients with damage to their ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) are less averse to uncertainty than healthy counterparts[4][5]. So it seems that vmPFC inhibits impulsive behiviour.
