The Influence of Scene Rotation on Contextual Cueing Effect

Abstract

Abstract: In visual search, multiple combined appearance of a specific background and target position can promote search performance, namely contextual cueing effect. The current study explored whether the learned contextual cueing effect can be migrated when the two-dimensional visual scenes are rotated. After learning of the contextual cueing effect, 3 group participants performed the same search task in the same visual scenes which had been rotated by 0°, 45°, 60°. The results showed that the learned effects were preserved in the testing phase. The result indicates that there is a more advanced coding mode in the contextual effect.

Key words: implicit memory, contextual cueing effect, mental rotation

摘要： 在视觉搜索中,特定背景与目标位置的多次联合呈现能够促进搜索绩效,这被称为背景提示效应。本研究探讨背景提示效应能否迁移到二维旋转后的视觉场景中去。选择大学生为被试,采用2（场景类型: 重复、新异）×7（时间阶段: 1~7）×3（旋转角度: 0°、45°、60°）的三因素混合实验设计。被试在进行背景提示效应的学习后,随机分为三组分别在旋转了0°、45°、60°的场景中继续执行视觉搜索任务。结果发现：三组被试都习得了背景提示效应,且都迁移到了旋转后的场景中。这表明背景提示效应可能存在更高级的编码方式。
