Abstract

We report a new, simple instrumental action-slip task, which sets goal-directed action against putative S-R associations. On each training trial, participants were presented with one of two stimuli (blue or green coloured screen). One stimulus (S1) signalled that one joystick response (R1-left or right push) would earn one of two rewards (O1-jellybeans or Pringles points). A second stimulus (S2) signalled a different instrumental relationship (S2:R2-O2). On each test trial, participants were told which outcome could be earnt (O1/O2) on that trial. They were required to withhold responding until the screen changed colour to S1 or S2. On congruent test trials, the stimulus presented (e.g., S1) was associated with the same response (R1) as the outcome available on that trial (O1). On incongruent test trials, in contrast, the outcome (e.g., O1) preceded a stimulus that was associated with a different response (e.g., S2). Hence, in order to obtain the outcome (O1) on incongruent trials, participants were required to suppress any tendency they might have to make the response associated with the stimulus (R2 in response to S2). In two experiments, participants made more errors on incongruent than congruent trials. This result suggests that, on incongruent trials, the stimulus drove responding (e.g., S2 increased R2 responding) in a manner that was inconsistent with goal-directed action (e.g., R1 responding to obtain O1)-an action slip. The results are discussed in terms of popular dual-process theories of instrumental action and a single-process alternative.

食物选择中的动作失误:衡量习惯和目标导向的控制。
我们报告了一个新的、简单的工具性动作失误任务,该任务针对假定的S-R关联设置目标导向的动作。在每次训练试验中,参与者都会受到两种刺激中的一种(蓝色或绿色屏幕)。一个刺激(S1)表示一个操纵杆响应(R1向左或向右推)将获得两个奖励中的一个(O1果冻或品客积分)。第二刺激(S2)表示不同的工具关系(S2:R2-O2)。在每个试验中,参与者都被告知该试验的结果(O1/O2)。他们被要求在屏幕颜色变为S1或S2之前停止响应。在一致的测试试验中,所呈现的刺激(例如,S1)与该试验的结果(O1)相同的反应(R1)相关。相反,在不一致的测试试验中,结果(例如O1)先于与不同反应相关的刺激(例如S2)。因此,为了获得不一致试验的结果(O1),参与者被要求抑制他们可能不得不做出与刺激相关的反应的任何趋势(R2对S2的反应)。在两个实验中,参与者在不一致的试验中犯的错误多于一致的试验。这一结果表明,在不一致的试验中,刺激驱动的反应(例如,S2增加了R2的反应)与目标导向的动作(例如,R1反应以获得O1)不一致,这是一种动作失误。结果是根据流行的工具作用和单一过程替代的双重过程理论进行讨论的。
