America wasn't ready to take down a man in the process of rewriting the storybook of our long, lost youth, so McGwire got a free pass, a deferred trial for when androstenedione is as widely denounced in the States as it happens to be here.
Value is encoded (in the frame of reference of the rule) only on defer trials.
(C ) Voxels responding to the interaction of rule and value on defer trials (left, at p < 0.0001) and commit trials (right, at p < 0.001).
A statistically indistinguishable pattern of activity was observed more ventrally in the medial orbitofrontal cortex (BA 10), a region that has been labeled arMFC or vmPFC (rule x value interaction on defer trials: peak −2, 52, −10; t(19) = 4.85, p < 0.00006) and where activity typically correlates the expected value during independent choices (O'Doherty et al., 2001; Plassmann et al., 2007).
In this region, value encoding on defer trials differed from zero on rule-in (t(19) = 5.21, p < 0.0001) and rule-out (t(19) = 3.41, p < 0.002) blocks, but failed to diverge from zero when commitments were made for either rule-in (p = 0.13) or rule-out (p = 0.07) blocks.
The general, already 80 years old, died of natural causes in 2006, while awaiting his endlessly deferred genocide trial.
Appellate judges usually defer to trial courts because it is the trial judge, after all, who actually watches the witnesses and hears the testimony, an experience the appellate court cannot duplicate.
