Abstract

Attention determines what kind of option information is processed during risky choices owing to the limitation of visual attention. This paper reviews research on the relationship between higher-complexity risky decision-making and attention as illustrated by eye-tracking to explain the process of risky decision-making by the effect of attention. We demonstrate this process from three stages: the pre-phase guidance of options on attention, the process of attention being biased, and the impact of attention on final risk preference. We conclude that exogenous information can capture attention directly to salient options, thereby altering evidence accumulation. In particular, for multi-attribute risky decision-making, attentional advantages increase the weight of specific attributes, thus biasing risk preference in different directions. We highlight the significance of understanding how people use available information to weigh risks from an information-processing perspective via process data.

注意力对风险决策过程的影响:来自眼动追踪的证据
由于视觉注意力的局限性,注意力决定了在风险选择过程中处理何种选项信息。本文综述了眼动跟踪所展示的高复杂性风险决策与注意力之间关系的研究,通过注意力的影响来解释风险决策的过程。我们从三个阶段论证了这一过程:选项对注意力的前阶段引导、注意力产生偏差的过程以及注意力对最终风险偏好的影响。我们的结论是,外来信息可以直接捕获对突出选项的注意力,从而改变证据积累。特别是在多属性风险决策中,注意力优势会增加特定属性的权重,从而使风险偏好向不同方向偏移。我们强调了通过过程数据从信息处理角度理解人们如何利用可用信息权衡风险的重要性。

期刊介绍: PsyCh Journal, China''s first international psychology journal, publishes peer‑reviewed research articles, research reports and integrated research reviews spanning the entire spectrum of scientific psychology and its applications. PsyCh Journal is the flagship journal of the Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences – the only national psychology research institute in China – and reflects the high research standards of the nation. Launched in 2012, PsyCh Journal is devoted to the publication of advanced research exploring basic mechanisms of the human mind and behavior, and delivering scientific knowledge to enhance understanding of culture and society. Towards that broader goal, the Journal will provide a forum for academic exchange and a “knowledge bridge” between China and the World by showcasing high-quality, cutting-edge research related to the science and practice of psychology both within and outside of China. PsyCh Journal features original articles of both empirical and theoretical research in scientific psychology and interdisciplinary sciences, across all levels, from molecular, cellular and system, to individual, group and society. The Journal also publishes evaluative and integrative review papers on any significant research contribution in any area of scientific psychology
