How adolescents and adults translate motivational value to action: Age-related shifts in strategic physical effort exertion for monetary rewards. Open
Adults titrate the degree of physical effort they are willing to expend according to the magnitude of reward they expect to obtain, a process guided by incentive motivation. However, it remains unclear whether adolescents, who are undergoi…
Consequences for peers differentially bias computations about risk across development. Open
