Control of valence-based disturbances of information processing

自发评估为非常消极或积极的刺激可能会干扰认知任务。例如，当汽车残骸或有吸引力的广告标志使汽车驾驶员分心时，情况就是如此。尽管存在基于原子价的干扰，但人类通常相当成功地完成了这些任务。 该项目旨在研究使我们能够控制这种干扰程度的机制。这些过程可以以反应的方式被招募，作为对所经历的干扰的响应，或者在预期干扰时以主动的方式被招募。基于上一个资助期的工作，我们的目标是仔细研究基于价的干扰的反应性调节的边界条件，以及与其他类型的任务干扰（例如空间干扰）的调节的关系。在第二，我们的目标是审查的条件下，积极主动的监管和它的关系，积极主动的监管其他类型的任务干扰。因此，该项目将揭示，如果以及在何种条件下，基于价的干扰是在特定领域或非特定领域的方式进行调节。

Stimuli that are spontaneously evaluated as either very negative or positive can disturb cognitive tasks. This is the case, for example, when a car wreck or an attractive advertising signs detracts a car driver form keeping track of the road. Humans are normally quite successful in accomplishing such tasks despite valence-based disturbances. The project aims to study those mechanisms that enable us to regulate the extent of such disturbances. Such processes can be recruited in a reactive manner, as response to experienced disturbance, or in a proactive manner when of disturbances are expected. Based on the work of the previous funding period, we aim to scrutinize the boundary conditions of reactive regulation of valence-based disturbance and the relationship to the regulation of other types of task disturbance (e.g. spatial interference). In the second we aim to scrutinize e the conditions of proactive regulation and its relationship to the proactive regulation of other types of task disturbances. The project will thus reveal, if and under which conditions, valence-based disturbances are regulated in a domain-specific or domain-unspecific manner.
