Studying the Link between Attention and Reward-learning: Implications for Attentional Exploration and Attentional Exploitation Theory

How well a stimulus predicts reward is correlated with the amount of attention that stimulus receives. However, the relationship between a cue’s predictiveness and the amount of attention it draws is not yet fully understood. There are two competing theories which posit distinct effects of a cue’s...
