Corrigendum: In this article, we regretfully missed citing an earlier finding (Botvinick, Huffstetler, & McGuire, 2009) that response in NAc for a fixed reward size was lower following a block of high cognitive demand compared to a block of low cognitive demand. Our results are in support of and provide extension to this finding.
