摘要
视觉工作记忆(Visual working memory, VWM)是我们对相关视觉信息进行选择和短暂存储的核心认知系统。我们最近观察到,从VWM中更准确地回忆起更突出的项目,并证明了这些显著性的影响抵制了奖励、概率和选择历史的操纵。在这里,我们研究了显著性是否以及如何与前向和后向引起的注意转移相互作用。在四个实验中,我们一致发现显著性对VWM准确性的影响。在记忆显示前呈现的空间和特征提示在有效提示目标时提高了准确性,但有效提示不能消除显著性效应。在回溯中也观察到类似的模式。总的来说,几乎没有证据表明,通过提示程序提高他们的注意优先级可以补偿对不显著刺激的较低准确性。这表明显著性在项目最初如何编码到VWM中起着关键作用,一旦表征形成,它们基于显著性的相对优先级似乎很难通过自上而下的优先级完全覆盖。这些发现强调了视觉注意和工作记忆相互作用中的自下而上和自上而下的过程。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA,版权所有)。
Persistent effects of salience in visual working memory: Limits of cue-driven guidance.
Visual working memory (VWM) is a core cognitive system enabling us to select and briefly store relevant visual information. We recently observed that more salient items were recalled more precisely from VWM and demonstrated that these effects of salience resisted manipulations of reward, probability, and selection history. Here, we investigated whether and how salience interacts with shifts of attention induced by pre- and retrocueing. Across four experiments, we consistently found the effects of salience on the accuracy of VWM. Spatial and feature cues presented before the memory display improved accuracy when they validly indicated the target, but valid cues failed to eliminate the salience effect. A similar pattern was observed with retrocues. Overall, there was little evidence that the lower accuracy for less salient stimuli could be compensated by increasing their attentional priority through cueing procedures. This suggests that salience plays a critical role in how items are initially encoded into VWM and that once representations are formed, their relative priority based on salience appears difficult to fully override via top-down priority. These findings highlight bottom-up and top-down processes in the interplay of visual attention and working memory. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
