摘要:

以往关于客体朝向影响客体注意的研究结论尚存争议,或与研究中使用的任务难度差异有关。本研究采用双框线索范式,系统操作任务难度,分别在探测任务与简单辨别任务(实验1)以及简单辨别任务与困难辨别任务(实验2)中考察客体朝向对客体注意的影响。结果发现,任务难度越大,水平优势越大,客体朝向对客体注意的影响也越大;而纯粹的客体注意不受任务难度、线索−目标朝向的影响。实验3在实验2的基础上,将矩形框倾斜45°排除水平优势后,进一步证实了纯粹的客体注意不受任务难度和客体朝向的影响。本研究澄清了以往有关客体朝向影响客体注意的争议,并为双框线索范式下排除水平优势获得纯粹的客体注意提供了有效的实验方法。

Abstract:

The impact of object orientation on object-based attention has been inconsistently reported in previous studies, which may be attributed to variations in task difficulty. This study used the two-rectangle cuing paradigm and systematically manipulated task difficulty to investigate the influence of object orientation on object-based attention in two experimental conditions: detection task versus simple discrimination task (Experiment 1), and simple discrimination task versus difficult discrimination task (Experiment 2). The results showed that as task difficulty increased, the horizontal advantage became more pronounced, which strengthened the influence of object orientation on object-based attention. However, pure object-based attention was unaffected by task difficulty or cue-target orientation. In Experiment 3, based on Experiment 2, a 45° tilt of the rectangular frame was introduced to eliminate the horizontal advantage, further confirming that pure object-based attention was independent of task difficulty and object orientation. This study clarifies previous controversies regarding the influence of object orientation on object-based attention and proposes an effective experimental method for isolating pure object-based attention by eliminating the horizontal advantage in the two-rectangle cuing paradigm.
