Reward associations are known to shape the brain’s processing of visual stimuli, but relatively less is known about how reward associations impact the processing of auditory stimuli. Here, we leveraged the high-temporal resolution of electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potentials (ERPs) to investigate the influence of low- and high-magnitude stimulus-reward associations in an auditory oddball task. We associated fast, correct detection of certain auditory target stimuli with larger monetary rewards, and other targets with smaller rewards. We found enhanced attentional processing of the more highly rewarded target stimuli, as evidenced by faster behavioral detection of those stimuli compared to lower-rewarded stimuli. Neurally, higher reward associations enhanced the early sensory processing of auditory targets. Targets associated with higher magnitude rewards had higher amplitude N1 and mismatch negativity (MMN) ERP components than targets associated with lower magnitude rewards. Reward did not impact the latency of these early components. Higher reward magnitude also decreased the latency and increased the amplitude of the longer-latency P3 component, suggesting reward can also enhance the final processing stages of auditory target stimuli. These results provide insight into how the sensory and attentional neural processing of auditory stimuli is modulated by stimulus-reward associations and the magnitude of those associations, with higher magnitude reward associations yielding enhanced auditory processing compared to lower magnitude reward associations.
