TrialsTable: | ||
description: | | ||
LED illumination from the center port indicated that the animal could initiate a trial by poking its nose in that | ||
port - upon trial initiation the center LED turned off. While in the center port, rats needed to maintain center | ||
fixation for a duration drawn uniformly from [0.8, 1.2] seconds. During the fixation period, a tone played from | ||
both speakers, the frequency of which indicated the volume of the offered water reward for that trial | ||
[1, 2, 4, 8, 16kHz, indicating 5, 10, 20, 40, 80μL rewards]. Following the fixation period, one of the two side | ||
LEDs was illuminated, indicating that the reward might be delivered at that port; the side was randomly chosen on | ||
each trial.This event (side LED ON) also initiated a variable and unpredictable delay period, which was randomly | ||
drawn from an exponential distribution with mean=2.5s. The reward port LED remained illuminated for the duration | ||
of the delay period, and rats were not required to maintain fixation during this period, although they tended to | ||
fixate in the reward port. When reward was available, the reward port LED turned off, and rats could collect the | ||
offered reward by nose poking in that port. The rat could also choose to terminate the trial (opt-out) at any time | ||
by nose poking in the opposite, un-illuminated side port, after which a new trial would immediately begin. On a | ||
proportion of trials (15–25%), the delay period would only end if the rat opted out (catch trials). If rats did | ||
not opt-out within 100s on catch trials, the trial would terminate. The trials were self-paced: after receiving | ||
their reward or opting out, rats were free to initiate another trial immediately. However, if rats terminated | ||
center fixation prematurely, they were penalized with a white noise sound and a time out penalty (typically 2s, | ||
although adjusted to individual animals). Following premature fixation breaks, the rats received the same offered | ||
reward, in order to disincentivize premature terminations for small volume offers. We introduced semi-observable, | ||
hidden states in the task by including uncued blocks of trials with varying reward statistics: high and low blocks | ||
, which offered the highest three or lowest three rewards, respectively, and were interspersed with mixed blocks, | ||
which offered all volumes. There was a hierarchical structure to the blocks, such that high and low blocks | ||
alternated after mixed blocks (e.g., mixed-high-mixed-low, or mixed-low-mixed-high). The first block of each | ||
session was a mixed block. Blocks transitioned after 40 successfully completed trials. Because rats prematurely | ||
broke fixation on a subset of trials, in practice, block durations were variable. | ||
