Learning to predict threat is essential but equally important yet often overlooked is learning about the absence of threat. Interrogating neural activity in two nucleus accumbens afferents in male and female mice during aversive and neutral cues reveals sex-specific encoding of cue discrimination and cuemediated suppression of reward behavior. Sexual dimorphisms in neural bases of threat discrimination may reflect sex differences in behavioral strategy relevant to differential psychiatric risk.
