choicedrift diffusionratresponse timevisionSignificance StatementWe investigated the dynamics of decision-making as rats initially learned to choose between visual stimuli associated with different rewards. Unlike prior research focusing on well-trained participants, we explored the initial stages of learning to make decisions. We used a behavioral design that separated value learning from choice learning.
