What a relief! A role for dopamine in positive (but not negative) valence.
Neuropsychopharmacology 2018 July

And this appears to be in a manner distinct from encoding of the aversive event itself. So does dopamine only contribute to learning about positive events? And are these events encoded in the same way regardless of how that positive experience came about? Not quite. Turns out, the devil is in the details.
