講演者:Professor Jan Theeuwes (Full Professor and Head of the Department
of Cognitive Psychology, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam)

講演題目:Automatic visual selection.

講演要旨:Classic models of attentional control assert a dichotomy between
top-down and bottom-up control, with the former determined by current
selection goals and the latter determined by physical salience. In the
present presentation, I will argue that this theoretical dichotomy is
inadequate to explain a number of cases in which neither current goals
nor physical salience can account for strong selection biases. I will
argue that the salience map that drives automatic selection is not
only determined by raw physical salience of the objects in the
environment but also by the way these objects are shaped by selection
history. I will provide evidence that priming (feature and reward
priming) sharpens the cortical representation of these objects such
that these objects appear to be more salient above and beyond their
physical salience. I will demonstrate that these types of history
effects are not under volitional control: it occurs even if observers
try to volitionally prepare for something else. In other words,
looking at red prepares our brain for things that are red even if we
volitionally try to prepare for green.
