>In your own thoughts, what clinical interventions could we develop with the goal of targeting the dysfunction in the Nucleus Accumbens? In my opinion: * Building tolerance for gains and losses * Changing one’s perception of how to cope with rewarding-punishming stimuli e.g.: * intentionally activate a reward signal when learning from the attributions to stuttering-like disfluencies * don’t consider “getting triggered by negative perception/anticipation or negative evaluation” as a punishment * even if you consider “negative perceptions/anticipation/evaluation” as punishment stimuli - learn to send a punishment signal * Setting the goal, in the amygdala, for fluency. And the nucleus accumbens will sort out the rest
