Abstract(in English) Previous studies demonstrated that the repetition of the same spatial configurations of the search display facilitates performance of visual search task implicitly (the contextual cueing effect), In the present study, we examined whether the feedback information for subjects' response affects the learning process of contextual cueing. Subjects were given a positive feedback or a negative feedback signal immediately after their response to a target in visual search tasks. Although they were instructed that the feedback signal would assess speed of their response, actually the feedback signals were randomly assigned to repeated layouts and were not informative. The results showed that positive feedback information facilitated the amount of the contextual cueing effect only for subjects who were not aware that feedback had no informativeness, not for subjects who were aware of. These results suggest that motivational and reward process can modulate implicit learning processes of contextual cueing.
