Applying Reward Prediction Error to Habits
1:10:09 - 1:15:29 (05:20)
In order to successfully adopt or break a habit, it's important to think about not only the actual execution of the habit, but also the events that precede and follow it. By positively associating dopamine reward with the larger context of habit execution, we can increase our chances of success.
