Strong Reward Signals, Weak Transfer: Limits of Spatial Priority Map Plasticity Across Task Contexts

2026-03-09

Abstract excerpt

Reward learning can bias attentional selection, but whether spatially biased reinforcement produces durable, context-general changes in spatial priority over days, and what neurophysiological signals track such learning, remains uncertain. We combined electroencephalography (EEG) and pupillometry with a multi-session spatial reward-learning paradigm (Chelazzi et al., 2014) in which targets could appear at eight lo...
