Abstract

Over the last two decades, the analogue report task has become a standard method for measuring the fidelity of visual representations across research domains including perception, attention, and memory. Despite its widespread use, there has been no methodical investigation of the different task parameters that might contribute to response variability. To address this gap, we conducted two experiments manipulating components of a typical analogue report test of memory for colour hue. We found that human response errors were independently affected by changes in storage and maintenance requirements of the task, demonstrated by a strong effect of set size even in the absence of a memory delay. In contrast, response variability remained unaffected by physical size of the colour wheel, implying negligible contribution of motor noise to task performance, or by its chroma radius, highlighting non-uniformity of the standard colour space. Comparing analogue report to a matched forced-choice task, we found variation in adjustment criterion made a limited contribution to analogue report variability, becoming meaningful only with low representational noise. Our findings validate the analogue report task as a robust measure of representational fidelity for most purposes, while also quantifying non-representational sources of noise that would limit its reliability in specialized settings.

剖析模拟报告任务中的错误因素 :模拟报告任务中的错误。
在过去的二十年里,模拟报告任务已成为测量视觉表征保真度的标准方法,适用于包括感知、注意力和记忆在内的各个研究领域。尽管这项任务被广泛使用,但对可能导致反应变异的不同任务参数却没有进行过系统的研究。为了弥补这一不足,我们进行了两项实验,对典型的色调记忆模拟报告测试的各个组成部分进行了操作。我们发现,人类的反应错误会受到任务中存储和维持要求变化的独立影响,即使在没有记忆延迟的情况下,集合大小也会产生强烈的影响。与此相反,反应的可变性不受色轮物理尺寸的影响,这意味着运动噪声对任务表现的影响可以忽略不计,也不受色度半径的影响,这凸显了标准色彩空间的不均匀性。将模拟报告与匹配的强迫选择任务进行比较后,我们发现调整标准的变化对模拟报告变异性的影响有限,只有在表征噪声较低时才有意义。我们的研究结果验证了模拟报告任务在大多数情况下是衡量表象保真度的可靠方法,同时也量化了非表象噪声源,这些噪声源会限制模拟报告任务在专门环境中的可靠性。
