我们提出了新的证据表明，新的自我相关的视觉协会可以影响性能在简单的形状识别任务。参与者将自己、其他人或中性术语的标签与几何形状相关联，然后立即判断后续的标签形状配对是否匹配。在4个实验中，有一个可靠的自我优先级的响应时间和感知灵敏度的好处，保持在不同的演示环境（自我。最好的朋友，和不熟悉的人在实验I;与自我，最好的朋友。实验2A和2B分别采用自我、母亲和中性词。实验三的控制研究表明，结果并没有反映的长度，具体性，或熟悉的话。在实验4A中，当刺激被降级时（自我形状显示出较弱的降级影响），形状匹配的自我优先级效应也增加，与自我信息调制感知处理一致。在实验4 B中，当人们将不同的奖励值与形状联系起来时，也发现了类似的效果。结果表明，关联的刺激自我调制其随后的知觉处理，这可能会通过自我关联的形状自动唤起奖励系统。
We present novel evidence showing that new self-relevant visual associations can affect performance in simple shape recognition tasks. Participants associated labels for themselves, other people, or neutral terms with geometric shapes and then immediately judged whether subsequent label shape pairings were matched. Across 4 experiments there was a reliable self-prioritization benefit on response times and perceptual sensitivity that remained across different presentation contexts (with self. best friend, and unfamiliar others in Experiment I; with self, best friend. and neutral terms, and with self, mother, and neutral terms in Experiments 2A and 2B, respectively. Control studies in Experiment 3 indicated that the results did not reflect the length, concreteness, or familiarity of the words. The self-prioritization effect on shape matching also increased when stimuli were degraded (self shapes showing weaker effects of degradation) in Experiment 4A, consistent with self-information modulating perceptual processing. A similar effect was found when people associated different reward values to the shape in Experiment 4B. The results indicate that associating a stimulus to the self modulates its subsequent perceptual processing, and this may operate by self-associated shapes automatically evoking the reward system.
