Do you know why you kick where you do? An investigation into the simultaneous engagement of distinct modes of (un-)conscious processing in the laboratory and in a natural action task

Dehaene, Changeaux, Naccache， Sackur和Sergent（2006）提出了基于刺激强度和自上而下注意组合的感知和决策的不同信息处理模式。三刺激强度阈值遵循这一分类，其中一个是客观阈值，通常由韦伯-费希纳定律描述。当前的项目旨在测试Dehaene等人的分类法对代表性和自然任务环境的适用性。特别地，它旨在了解处理模式对足球点球感知和决策的同时贡献。为此，本项目不仅旨在揭示阈下与无加工之间的客观阈值，还旨在揭示有意识与阈下加工之间的主观阈值，以及意识前与无加工之间的阈值。在此过程中，当前的项目还将检查情境因素对刺激阈值的影响，例如任务要求、不同的指示以及疲劳和焦虑的水平。最后，分类法将用于检查最近在自然任务情境中观察到的伪忽视和感知强化现象。这将揭示意识处理的不同模式如何相互作用来控制感知和决策。

Dehaene, Changeaux, Naccache, Sackur, and Sergent (2006) proposed distinct modes of information processing for perception and decision-making based on a combination of stimulus strength and top-down attention. Three-stimulus strength thresholds follow from this taxonomy, one of which is the objective threshold typically described by the Weber-FechnerLaw. The current project aims to test the appropriateness of Dehaene et al.s taxonomy for representative and natural task environments. In particular, it aims to understand the simultaneous contributions of the modes of processing on a soccer penalty takers perception and decision-making. To this end, the project not only aims to uncover the objective threshold between subliminal and no processing, but also the subjective threshold between conscious and subliminal processing, and the threshold between preconscious and no processing. In doing so, the current project will also examine the influence of situational factors on the stimulus thresholds, such as task requirments, different instructions, and the level of fatique and anxiety. Finally, the taxonomy will be used to examine the phenomena of pseudo-neglect and perceptual accentuation that have recently been observed in natural task situations. This will uncover how the distinct modes of conscious processing interact to control perception and decision-making.
