The Effect of Reward Magnitude on Different Types of Exploration in Human Reinforcement Learning.
Article in Computational brain & behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
How humans resolve the explore-exploit dilemma in complex environments is an important open question. Previous studies suggested that environmental richness may affect the degree of exploration in a type-specific manner and reduce random exploration while increasing uncertainty-based exploration. Our study examined this possibility by extending a recently developed two-armed bandit task that can dissociate the uncertainty and novelty of stimuli. To extract the pure effect of environmental richness, we manipulated the reward by its magnitude, not its probability, across blocks because reward probability affects outcome controllability.
