Affect-congruent attention modulates generalized reward expectations
Fig 4
Illustration of model estimates of attention to valence across time and between groups.
Negative values of αV indicate more attention to low-value cues; positive values indicate more attention to high-value cues. There was a strong affect-congruent modulation of attention to value in the generalization blocks, the strength of which decayed over time. The dynamics of mood as plotted here were calculated using medians of the posterior distributions of the αV, ΔαV, and λ parameters.
