| Abstract(in English) | Perceptual learning refers to the improvement of perceptual sensitivity and performance with training. In this study, we examined whether a learning process is accompanied by a release from the dependence of performance on mental effort, leading to an automatization of the task. For the purpose, subjects conducted a visual search task in which the target was defined by orientation while eye movement and pupil size were monitored. We found that pupil size increased as the learning proceeded while eye movement was optimized. This result does not support the simple automatization hypothesis, and suggests that the activation of the sympathetic nerve system is enhanced by at an early stage of perceptual learning. |
