orbitofrontal cortex

基本解釋

The orbitofrontal cortex becomes active when parents see their own babies smile, for example, but not other babies.
例如，當父母看到自己的嬰兒時，這塊區(qū)域就會活躍。而見到別人的孩子時，就不會。
Experiments have shown that the medial orbitofrontal cortex processes the experience of enjoyment from smells, taste and music.
實驗表明，眼窩前額皮質(zhì)（介質(zhì)）處理享受嗅覺、味覺和音樂的體驗。
Those regions, the nucleus accumbens and the orbitofrontal cortex, appear to process the rewarding information that comes from engaging in such pleasurable activities.
眼窩前額皮質(zhì)和伏隔核似乎從參與愉快活動中產(chǎn)生獎勵信息。

That structure, in turn, is tightly linked to the orbitofrontal cortex, which has been shown to be activated by monetary rewards.
