通常在视觉搜索中研究独特但不相关的单一干扰因素捕获注意力的现象。在本文中,作者研究了听觉领域是否发生了类似的现象。参与者在声音序列中搜索由频率、强度或持续时间定义的目标。在不相关维度上唯一的单例干扰项(例如,搜索高强度目标的低频单例)的存在与检测和区分任务中的搜索成本相关。然而,如果单例特征与目标项一致,则搜索就会变得容易。这些结果证实了听觉注意力捕获现象。
The phenomenon of attentional capture by a unique yet irrelevant singleton distractor has typically been studied in visual search. In this article, the authors examine whether a similar phenomenon occurs in the auditory domain. Participants searched sequences of sounds for targets defined by frequency, intensity, or duration. The presence of a singleton distractor that was unique on an irrelevant dimension (e.g., a low-frequency singleton in search for a target of high intensity) was associated with search costs in both detection and discrimination tasks. However, if the singleton feature coincided with the target item, search was facilitated. These results establish the phenomenon of auditory attentional capture.
