Dopamine

State

Dopamine is involved in movement, reward learning, and motivation toward an anticipated outcome.

Show

Dopamine activity rises when a cue predicts a reward, before the reward itself arrives.

Watch for

Dopamine is not the pleasure chemical. It tracks anticipation and learning more closely than enjoyment.
