Emotional metacontrol of attention: Top-down modulation of sensorimotor processes in a robotic visual search task
Emotions play a significant role in internal regulatory processes. In this paper, we advocate four key ideas. First, novelty detection can be grounded in the sensorimotor experience and allow higher order appraisal. Second, cognitive processes, such as those involved in self-assessment, influence emotional states by eliciting affects like boredom and frustration. Third, emotional processes such...
متن کاملBottom-up influences on visual attention in a top-down search task
What exactly controls our gazing behaviour when we look at visual stimuli? We presume that some objects are more salient then others, which means that they have a more striking appearance against the background. It is known that these salient objects can influence our gazing behaviour, this uncontrolled effect is called bottom-up. The effect competing with bottom-up control is top-down behaviou...
متن کاملInvestigating task-dependent top-down effects on overt visual attention.
Different tasks can induce different viewing behavior, yet it is still an open question how or whether at all high-level task information interacts with the bottom-up processing of stimulus-related information. Two possible causal routes are considered in this paper. Firstly, the weak top-down hypothesis, according to which top-down effects are mediated by changes of feature weights in the bott...
متن کاملTop-down modulation of attention by emotion
Due to their evolutionary salience, threatrelated stimuli, such as snakes, spiders, and angry faces constitute a special class of stimuli believed to capture attention in an involuntary, bottom-up manner. Most research in affective neuroscience has focused on unraveling neural pathways that support this “automatic” capture of attention by emotional stimuli (Vuilleumier and Driver, 2007). Howeve...
متن کاملTop-down control of visual attention.
Top-down visual attention improves perception of selected stimuli and that improvement is reflected in the neural activity at many stages throughout the visual system. Recent studies of top-down attention have elaborated on the signatures of its effects within visual cortex and have begun identifying its causal basis. Evidence from these studies suggests that the correlates of spatial attention...
