Attention Influences Emotional Judgment Decision

项目摘要

Most research in judgment and decision making examines the influence of emotion on attention. This project examines the converse: how does attention influence emotion and what are the implications for perceptions of risks such as social threats, environmental hazards, and terrorism? Understanding how attention intensifies emotion and risk perception is fundamental to effective communications by governments, nonprofits, and other organizations. For example, public health campaigns seek to raise awareness of health risks regarding smoking. Environmental campaigns seek to raise awareness of climate change. Public safety campaigns seek to raise awareness of terrorism threats associated with international travel. To be effective, these communication efforts must take into account how attention influences emotion and risk perception. This research will provide such understanding. The results will also help explain why some major threats fail to arouse alarm, whereas other relatively minor concerns such as commercial airline travel can be unduly alarming. This work will also support scientific training of a diverse group of undergraduate and graduate students. This research will test the hypotheses that attention intensifies emotion, and that attention consequently increases risk perceptions associated with environmental hazards, terrorism, and social threats. The underlying idea is that attention intensifies emotion because attention increases the vividness of attended objects. The project will use three procedures to experimentally manipulate attention. In one study series, participants will repeatedly search for target images in a series of sequentially presented images. This procedure mimics searching for objects, as in security screening, medical scans, and grocery stores. In a second study series, participants in a multi-tasking experiment repeatedly orient attention to images located at the periphery of their visual field. Attention is oriented toward some images more frequently than others, without a designated target. This procedure mimics looking at pop-up advertisements that appear on screen or selectively attending to headlines on a news website. In a third procedure, participants monitor letters presented on one side of a computer screen while two images are presented: one attended image just below the letters, and one unattended image on the opposite side of the screen. This procedure orients attention as an incidental byproduct of monitoring letters. Preliminary results using all three procedures suggest that people judge attended images as more emotionally intense and vivid - but not more (or less) liked compared with unattended images. A fourth series of studies uses the three procedures to examine whether attention increases perceived risks of environmental hazards, terrorist activities, and social threats.

大多数关于判断和决策的研究都考察了情绪对注意力的影响。这个项目探讨了匡威的问题：注意力如何影响情绪，以及对社会威胁、环境危害和恐怖主义等风险的感知有什么影响？了解注意力如何强化情绪和风险感知是政府、非营利组织和其他组织进行有效沟通的基础。例如，公共卫生运动力求提高人们对吸烟的健康风险的认识。环保运动旨在提高人们对气候变化的认识。公共安全运动旨在提高对与国际旅行有关的恐怖主义威胁的认识。为了有效，这些沟通努力必须考虑到注意力如何影响情绪和风险感知。这项研究将提供这样的理解。研究结果还将有助于解释为什么一些重大威胁没有引起人们的警觉，而其他相对次要的问题，如商业航空旅行，却可能引起过度的警觉。这项工作还将支持对不同群体的本科生和研究生进行科学培训。这项研究将测试的假设，即注意强化情绪，并注意因此增加与环境危害，恐怖主义和社会威胁相关的风险感知。其基本思想是，注意力增强了情感，因为注意力增加了被注意对象的生动性。该项目将使用三个程序来实验性地操纵注意力。在一个研究系列中，参与者将在一系列顺序呈现的图像中重复搜索目标图像。这个过程模拟了在安全检查、医疗扫描和杂货店中搜索对象。在第二个研究系列中，多任务实验的参与者反复将注意力集中在位于视野边缘的图像上。注意力会更频繁地指向某些图像，而没有指定的目标。这个过程模拟了看屏幕上出现的弹出广告或选择性地关注新闻网站上的标题。在第三个过程中，参与者监视计算机屏幕一侧上呈现的字母，同时呈现两个图像：一个在字母下方的有人值守图像，以及屏幕另一侧的无人值守图像。这个过程将注意力定位为监控信件的附带副产品。使用所有三个程序的初步结果表明，人们认为参加的图像更情绪化，更生动-但不是更多（或更少）喜欢与无人值守的图像相比。第四个系列的研究使用这三个程序来检查注意力是否会增加环境危害，恐怖活动和社会威胁的感知风险。
