| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A mathematical model showed that the impact of future event tends to be estimated as larger when the onset of that event was uncertain.Then a rhesus monkey was trained to perform decision-making task under temporally uncertain condition.In this task,the monkey must choose one of two alternatives whose delay to reward onset was uncertain. The degree of uncertainty was different between two alternatives. Unfortunately,the monkey failed to learn this task. Instead, time production task and different type of decision-making task under temporally certain condition were introduced. Combined the results from them,I found that the time monkey estimated varied in wide range and the monkey's sensitivity to delay is lower than the cases when the delay to the event was presented as the sequence of discrete steps.
