Whether it is possible to ignore a physically salient distractor has been a topic of active debate over the past 25 years, with empirical evidence for and against each of the theoretical stances. We put forward that predictive processing may provide a unified theoretical perspective that can account reasonably well for the empirical literature on attentional capture. In this perspective, capture is a logical consequence of the overall imperative of the brain to predict what sensory signals provide precise information to achieve goal-directed behaviour.
在过去25年里,是否有可能忽略一个在物理上显著的干扰物一直是一个激烈争论的话题,支持和反对每种理论立场的实证证据都有。我们提出,预测性处理可能提供一个统一的理论视角,能够很好地解释关于注意力捕获的实证文献。从这个角度来看,捕获是大脑整体指令的逻辑结果,即预测哪些感官信号能提供精确信息以实现目标导向行为。
