The last ten years of attention research have witnessed a revolution, replacing a theoretical
dichotomy (top-down vs. bottom-up control) with a trichotomy (biased by current goals …

Accidents readily occur when workers are not attentive to the hazards of their work. For
some professionals, such as workers in the construction and mining industry, exposure to …

Attentional capture by previously reward-associated stimuli has predominantly been
measured in the visual domain. Recently, behavioral studies of value-driven attention have …

Reward value and selective attention both enhance the representation of sensory stimuli at
the earliest stages of processing. It is still debated whether and how reward-driven and …

Reward associations are known to shape the brain's processing of visual stimuli, but
relatively less is known about how reward associations impact the processing of auditory …

Background Even when motivated to consume less alcohol, attempts to do so are not always
successful. Attentional bias to positive and negative alcohol-related information may play a …

This study aimed to determine whether value-based attentional biases learned in the
auditory domain can correspondingly shape visual attention. A learning phase established …

It is important for organisms to notice signals of opportunities (ie, chances for performance-
dependent reward) and dangers (ie, performance-dependent risks of loss). Attentional …

Behavioural and neuroscientific evidence suggests visual stimuli that signal value
involuntarily capture attention and are preferentially processed, even when unattended. We …

Stimuli associated with high reward modulate perception and such value-driven effects have
been shown to originate from the modulation of the earliest stages of sensory processing in …
