Spatial cues that mismatch the colour of a subsequent target cause slower response, and the source of this effect is currently unknown. Two possible sources are attentional signal suppression and object-file updating. By correlating brain activity with the magnitude of the effect, researchers found a negative correlation, contradicting the suppression account and supporting the object-file updating account.
Spatial cues that mismatch the colour of a subsequent target have been shown to slow responses to targets that share their location. The source of this 'same location cost' (SLC) is currently unknown. Two potential sources are attentional signal suppression and object-file updating. Here, we tested a direct prediction of the suppression account using data from a spatial-cueing study in which we recorded brain activity using electroencephalography (EEG), and focusing on the event-related P-D component, which is thought to index attentional signal suppression. Correlating P-D amplitude with SLC magnitude, we tested the prediction that if attentional signal suppression is the source of the SLC, then the SLC should be positively correlated with P-D amplitude. Across 48 participants, SLC and P-D magnitudes were negatively correlated, in direct contradiction to a suppression account of the SLC. These results are compatible with an object-file updating account of the SLC in which updating is facilitated by reactive suppression of the to-be-updated stimulus information.
