A great pleasure attending to @anne-schacht.bsky.social presenting on recent developments in emotion*cognition interaction research. Facing salient faces is highly rewarding - that’s true in experimentally controlled settings and even more in real life, thanks for coming to ZI-Mannheim

We used a brain "pinging" again and found that distractor suppression is reactive rather than proactive, meaning attention is first drawn to the distractor before being suppressed.
Neural mechanisms of learned suppression uncovered by probing the hidden attentional priority map
Learned suppression of distractor locations in visual search emerges through reactive mechanisms that involve initial spatial selection prior to suppression.
