Abstract

Previous research on emotion-induced blindness (EIB) argues emotional distractors capture attention in a bottom-up manner due to their physical and emotional salience. However, recent research has shown it is controversial whether EIB will be modulated by top-down factors. The present study further investigated whether the magnitude of EIB would be modulated by top-down factors, specifically the emotional relevance between tasks and distractors. Participants were divided into two groups having the same targets except for different task instructions. The orientation judgment group was asked to judge the orientation of the target (an emotionally irrelevant task), and the emotion judgment group was required to judge the emotional valence of the target (an emotionally relevant task). It was found the emotional relevance between tasks and distractors has no modulation on the magnitudes of EIB in two groups when targets and distractors are from different categories (Experiment 1), but a modulation when they are from the same category (Experiment 2). Consequently, we contend top-down task relevance modulates the EIB effect and distractors' priority is regulated by the emotional relevance between tasks and distractors. The current study holds attentional capture by stimulus-driven is unconditional in EIB, while attentional capture by goal-driven requires certain conditions.

任务相关性对情绪诱发失明的调节作用取决于目标和干扰物是否属于同一类别。
以往关于情绪诱发盲(EIB)的研究认为,情绪干扰物由于其物理和情绪上的显著性,会以自下而上的方式吸引注意力。然而,最近的研究表明,EIB 是否会受到自上而下因素的调节还存在争议。本研究进一步探讨了EIB的大小是否会受到自上而下因素的调节,特别是任务与干扰物之间的情感相关性。受试者被分为两组,两组的目标相同,只是任务指令不同。方位判断组被要求判断目标的方位(情感无关任务),而情感判断组则被要求判断目标的情感价位(情感相关任务)。结果发现,当目标和干扰物来自不同类别时(实验 1),任务和干扰物之间的情感相关性对两组的 EIB 大小没有调节作用,但当它们来自同一类别时(实验 2),则有调节作用。因此,我们认为自上而下的任务相关性调节了EIB效应,而分心物的优先级受任务和分心物之间的情感相关性的调节。目前的研究认为,在EIB中,刺激驱动的注意捕获是无条件的,而目标驱动的注意捕获则需要一定的条件。

期刊介绍: Cognition & Emotion is devoted to the study of emotion, especially to those aspects of emotion related to cognitive processes. The journal aims to bring together work on emotion undertaken by researchers in cognitive, social, clinical, and developmental psychology, neuropsychology, and cognitive science. Examples of topics appropriate for the journal include the role of cognitive processes in emotion elicitation, regulation, and expression; the impact of emotion on attention, memory, learning, motivation, judgements, and decisions.
