Primes

• Counterfactual Proximity Weighting
  • Operant learning and gambling: the near-miss effect — a slot machine showing "two cherries and a lemon" produces approach behaviour and dopaminergic response resembling a partial win, even though nothing was paid; the graded counterfactual proximity drives re-engagement.
