Reward-learning theory views habits as stimulus-response links formed through extended reward training.Accordingly, animal research has shown that actions are initially goaldirected can become habitual after operant overtraining.However, a similar demonstration is absent in human research, which poses serious problem for translational models of behavior.We propose response-time (RT) switch cost training be used new, reliable marker the operation habit system humans.Using new method, we show...
The N2pc is widely employed as an electrophysiological marker of attention allocation. This interpretation was largely driven by the observation elicited isolated relevant target object, which reported Experiment 2 in Eimer (1996). All subsequent refined interpretations had to take this crucial finding into account. Despite its central role for neurocognitive research, there have been no direct replications and only few conceptual seminal work. Within context #EEGManyLabs, international...
In experimental psychology and behavioral neuroscience, habits are considered stimulus-response (S-R) associations formed through extended reward training. Accordingly, assessed using one of two tests: 1) Outcome devaluation, in which the value outcome (reward) is reduced, making it less desirable, 2) Contingency degradation, response-outcome association reversed so that responding prevents delivery a reward. If behavior controlled by S-R links, then should remain unaffected these...

Abstract Reward affects our attention to stimuli, prioritizing those that lead high‐value outcomes. Recently, it has been suggested such reward‐related cognitive prioritization might be associated with the process of learning new stimulus–response (S‐R) associations, because both are acquired through extended reward training, and once established, they hard overcome. We used event‐related potentials (ERP) analyze contribution S‐R links formation during reinforcement learning. Reward‐related...
Visual search is faster when it occurs within repeated displays, a phenomenon known as contextual cuing (CC). CC has been explained the result of an automatic orientation attention towards target item driven by learned distractor-target associations. In three experiments we tested specific hypothesis that process attentional guidance. Participants first searched for T in standard procedure. Then, they experienced same configurations (with still present), but now Y was positioned either...
Previous research has shown that cues are good predictors of relevant outcomes receive more attention than nonpredictive cues.This attentional bias is thought to stem from the different predictive value cues.However, because successful performance requires cues, may be a lingering effect previous (i.e., selection history effect) instead.Two experiments assessed contribution and produced by learned predictiveness.In first task, participants responded pairs only one which predicted correct...
It is well established that associative learning, such as learning new cue–outcome pairings, produces changes in attention: cues are good predictors of relevant outcomes become prioritised compared with those non-predictive or redundant. However, there controversy about whether a learnt attentional bias results from controlled orientation attention, it can be involuntary nature. In three experiments, participants learned certain colours were predictive non-predictive, and we assessed...
In this opinion letter we critical assess a new explanatory hypothesis for habitual behaviour in humans, the goal replacement hypothesis. This claims that habits are other forms of goal-directed behaviour, what challenges one core assumption reward learning models. However, show can only explain part literature; recent results using methods measuring cannot be accounted by

The process of learning an associative relationship between two events, such as a cue-response pairing, can be shaped by changes in attention. It is well established that predictive cues are prioritized for attentional processing compared to those non-predictive. However, there controversy about whether this bias controlled or automatic nature. In experiments, participants learnt relationships (AL) task. Attention the was assessed using dot-probe (DP) AL trials, learned make appropriate...
