Abstract/Summary:
Attention has always been a hot topic in psychological research.In recent years,valuedriven attention capture is a new discovery in the field of attention that has been deeply loved by researchers.At present,domestic and foreign research mostly discusses the topic of valuedriven attention capture from the spatial dimension.The spatial dimension is just a perspective of attention to selection research.Based on this,this research uses the research tools of predecessors to explore the influencing factors of value-driven attention capture from another perspective of attention selection research—the time dimension perspective.In this study,the rapid sequential visual presentation task(RSVP)was used to explore the influence and development characteristics of enhanced sensitivity on value-driven attention capture.Research one uses the BIS/BAS scale to select college students with high reward sensitivity and high punishment sensitivity as the research object.The reward and punishment scenarios are manipulated through the connection between the subject fee and the experimental task,and the enhanced sensitivity is used to drive attention to value.Capturing the characteristics of the impact.Experiments 1 and 2 each selected 50 college students to investigate the influence of enhanced sensitivity on reward and punishmentdriven attention capture.The results found that: under the conditions of Lag2 and Lag4,compared with punishment-sensitive individuals,reward-sensitive individuals can Get more reward-driven attention capture;compared with reward-sensitive individuals,punishmentsensitive individuals get more punishment-driven attention capture.In view of the age difference between enhanced sensitivity and value-driven attention capture,the second study investigated the age characteristics of the impact of enhanced sensitivity on value-driven attention capture based on the conclusions of the first study.Experiment 3 and Experiment 4each selected 85 subjects(30 elementary school students,30 junior high school students,and25 college students)to examine the age difference of reward/punishment sensitivity on reward/punishment-driven attention capture.The results found that: in the time dimension Above,the influence of reward sensitivity on reward-driven attention capture decreases with age,and there is no age difference in the influence of punishment sensitivity on punishmentdriven attention capture.The combination of value-driven attention selection and enhanced sensitivity provides a theoretical basis and practical guiding significance for the treatment of mental illness.Understanding the mechanism of the influence of personality traits on value-driven attention capture is beneficial for parents and teachers to adopt incentive methods suitable for their own characteristics,promote their healthy growth and help their better development.
