Value
From Deliberative Democracy Institiute Wiki
Value is a calculation of potential payoff, the probability of success, and the cost in terms of time and effort (in Kennerley et al 2009). ACC, orbito-frontal cortex, and the lateral prefrontal cortex are involved in decision-making process[1]. ACC is most involved in decision making[2].In decision making ACC is thought to detect conflicts between two deductions and evaluating the rewards of actions[3]. On the integration of these finding please read this article.
