Studies of visual search demonstrate that the 'learned value'of stimuli (the extent to which
they signal valued events, such as rewards and punishments) influences whether they will …

Recent studies of visual search suggest that learning about valued outcomes (rewards and
punishments) influences the likelihood that distractors will capture spatial attention and slow …

How does reward guide spatial attention during visual search? In the present study, we
examine whether and how two types of reward information—magnitude and frequency …

How is attention guided by past experience? In visual search, numerous studies have
shown that recent trials influence responses to the current trial. Repeating features such as …

The attentional priority of a stimulus is influenced by both its relationship to task goals and
reward history. While experiments probing goal-directed visual search typically dictate which …

The contribution of rewarded actions to automatic attentional selection remains obscure. We
hypothesized that some forms of automatic orienting, such as object-based selection, can be …

Modulations of visual attention due to expectation of reward were frequently reported in
recent years. Recent studies revealed that reward can modulate the implicit learning of …

In the reinforcement learning literature, good outcome following selection of a visual object
is thought to bias perception and attention in favour of similar objects in later experience …

Existing visual search research has demonstrated that the receipt of reward will be
beneficial for subsequent perceptual and attentional processing of features that have …

Visual attention enables us to selectively prioritize or suppress information in the
environment. Prominent models concerned with the control of visual attention differentiate …
