本研究在经典的注意瞬脱研究范式中变化干扰刺激T2—1或目标刺激他的颜色特征,探究由新异刺激特征引发的注意捕获对注意瞬脱的影响。结果发现,当改变T2—1或T2的颜色时,这些与任务无关的新异信息可以自下而上地引发注意捕获并减小注意瞬脱。注意瞬脱起因于有限注意资源的分配,资源的分配方式受注意捕获的自动调节。这为解决注意瞬脱到底是有限资源限制还是资源分配提供了新的实证和理论解释。
本研究在經典的註意瞬脫研究範式中變化榦擾刺激T2—1或目標刺激他的顏色特徵,探究由新異刺激特徵引髮的註意捕穫對註意瞬脫的影響。結果髮現,噹改變T2—1或T2的顏色時,這些與任務無關的新異信息可以自下而上地引髮註意捕穫併減小註意瞬脫。註意瞬脫起因于有限註意資源的分配,資源的分配方式受註意捕穫的自動調節。這為解決註意瞬脫到底是有限資源限製還是資源分配提供瞭新的實證和理論解釋。

There are two different explanations for the Attentional Blink (AB) - a deficit in reporting the second of two targets when presented in close temporal succession: one is central capacity limitations, which assumes that the AB reflects an unavoidable resources limitation ; the other is resources allocation, which describes the AB as a product of overinvestment of attentional resources. If the AB is determined by an allocation policy, it could be mediated not only through top - down task performances, but also by bottom - up stimu- lus variations. Although the flurry of recent findings show that the AB can be attenuated in various mission requirements, few papers show that task - irrelevant stimulus character can attenuate the AB as well. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis of novel stimulus - driven Attentional Capture (AC) regarding the resources alloca- tion mechanisms by which stimulus circumstances result in a reduced AB effect. An AB task varying in 4 color types was used. Type 1 was a standard AB task in which both the first target (T1) and the second (T2) were digits in an RSVP stream consisting of 18 interfer- ence letters, all black on a white background. Type 2 - 4 were largely the same as type 1 except for the following changes : both the T2 and T2 - 1 ( interference letter previous to T2) were red in type 2 ; the T2 in type 3 and T2 - 1 in type 4 were red too ; the T2 + 1 ( inter- ference stimulus next to T2, also named mask stimulus) kept the same color with T2 in 4 types respectively. In each type, the temporal distance between T1 and T2 was systematically varied in 2, 3, and 8 items ( Lags 2, 3, and 8). Stimulus generation and response re- cording were done with E - Prime2. 0. Each letter or digit was presented for 30ms, followed by a 70ms blank. Forty - six participants completed all 4 types. Their task was to identify both T1 and T2. An unhurried response was made at the end of each trial by typing the digits on a standard keyboard. During the test, they were asked to ignore the interference letters or any possible changes in colors. Accuracy data were submitted to an analysis of repeated measuring variance with color type (1,2, 3, and 4) and lag (2, 3, and 8 ) as variables. The results for T1 showed that color type and lag had no significant effects on AB task. The results for T2 when T1 was identified correctly showed that there was no interaction effect between color type and lag, F (6,270) = . 895, p = . 503. The main effect of lag was significant, F(2,90) -- 9. 665 ,p 〈 . 001. Accuracy dropped after Lag 2 and then gradually increased again. There was a main effect of color type, F(3,135) = 4. 405 ,p 〈 . 01. Performance was better overall in types 2, 3, and 4 than in type 1, F (1,45) = 11.576,p 〈 .01, but there were no significant differences among types 2, 3, and 4, F(1,45) = 2.378,p = . 130. These findings support the hypothesis that the AB is due to an allocation of limited attentional resources in stimulus processing. The pat- terns of resources allocation can be mediated by AC automatically. Driven by task - irrelevant novel information on T2 - 1 or T2, the AC can leave the excess of resources that would normally be allocated to T1 available for T2.
