A corrigendum on
Validation and extension of the reward-mountain model

by Breton, Y.-A., Mullett, A., Conover, K., and Shizgal, P. (2013). Front. Behav. Neurosci. 7:125. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2013.00125

There is a subscripting error in the appendix to the article by Breton et al. (2013). In the sentence on page 16 between Equations A.6 and A.7 that begins

“Substituting for Ubsr and Ue in Equation A.5,”

the specified divisor should be RImaxSP×(1+ξ) and not RImaxSPe×(1+ξ). In other words, there should be no subscript for SP in the divisor.

Conflict of Interest Statement

The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.

Acknowledgment

The authors are grateful to Rebecca Solomon for spotting the error.
