Components of reward-driven attentional capture

Abstract: Recent research reported that task-irrelevant colors captured attention if these colors previously served as search targets and received high monetary reward. We showed that both monetary reward and value-independent mechanisms influenced selective attention. Participants searched for two potential target colors among distractor colors in the training phase. Subsequently, they searched for a shape singleton in a testing phase. Experiment 1 found that participants were slower in the testing phase if a distracto… Show more

“…It was traditionally thought that such selection history biases require substantial training to develop, typically thousands of trials over multiple days (Kyllingsbaek et al, 2001, 2014; Shiffrin & Schneider, 1977). However, statistically significant attentional biases for former targets have more recently been measured using much shorter single-session training, the length of which was more comparable to the length of training used in value-driven attentional capture studies (Lin, Lu, & He, 2016; Sha & Jiang, 2016; Wang et al, 2013). If significant attentional biases can be measured without reward feedback following a single session of training, the question arises as to whether the reward feedback actually modulates attentional capture in the value-driven attentional capture paradigm.…”

“…Support for value-dependence can be provided through one of two means: (1) greater attentional capture by prior targets following rewarded training than following unrewarded training, and (2) greater attentional capture by prior targets previously associated with high compared to low value. Using a variant of the original value-driven attentional capture paradigm, Sha and Jiang (2016) failed to find evidence of either, and raised criticisms regarding the adequacy of evidence provided by prior studies using this particular paradigm. To address this disparity, here we provided a stringent test of the value-dependence hypothesis using the traditional value-driven attentional capture paradigm.…”

“…Higher (explicitly learned) associative value, based on secondary reward in terms of monetary value, leads to better explicit recognition memory, and high value associations can even lead to stimuli escaping the attentional blink (Raymond and O’Brien, 2009), suggesting that such associations drive low-level attentional biases. Even in cases where participants are not consciously aware of the association between stimulus characteristics and rewarding outcomes, evidence suggests a clear attentional bias toward stimuli that are consistently paired with higher secondary rewards (Anderson et al, 2011; Sha and Jiang, 2015). Stimulus-reward learning may allow for the optimization of behavior by automatically orienting attention towards reward-predicting elements of a scene, and thus help optimize choice behavior to seek reward and avoid punishment (Engelmann et al, 2009; Hickey et al, 2010; Theeuwes and Belopolsky, 2012; Chelazzi et al, 2013; Sali et al, 2014; Pessoa, 2015).…”

“…The dominant hypothesis is that they do, reflecting a unitary construct defined by selection history (Awh, Belopolsky, & Theeuwes, 2012; Lin, Lu, & He, 2016; Sha & Jiang, 2016; Stankevich & Geng, 2014). Theories of perceptual learning lend further insight into the potential shared mechanism.…”
