“…CAT is a behavioral training task used to induce choice and preference changes for given stimuli in the absence of external reinforcement 8,10,11 . Specifically, when people are cued to manually respond to a stimulus (e.g., 'Go'), they are more likely to prefer and more frequently choose Go stimuli over NoGo stimuli despite having comparable initial preferences for Go and NoGo stimuli.…”

“…The CAT task prompts participants to give speeded motor responses to cued stimuli, ultimately increasing positive evaluations or preference toward these trained stimuli (Schonberg et al, 2014; Salomon et al, 2018; Schonberg & Katz, 2020; Itzkovitch et al, 2022). While CAT has been used to alter preferences for various stimuli, such as food, abstract patterns, images (for a review, see Salomon et al 2018), its impact on higher-order social-cognitive processes such as self-referential processing remains unexplored.…”

People tend to view themselves through rose-tinted glasses, as evidenced by preferential recall of positive personality traits. We asked whether reactivating positive personality traits during sleep could enhance peoples' positive self-evaluative memories. After a baseline self-referential encoding task in which participants endorsed positive and negative traits as self-descriptive, participants were trained to give timely responses to positive traits in a cue-approach training (CAT) task. Once participants had entered slow-wave sleep during a subsequent nap, half of the trained positive traits were unobtrusively re-played to them to promote consolidation (targeted memory reactivation, TMR). Participants completed free-recall tasks about self-descriptive traits to measure their self-evaluative memories. Our findings revealed that TMR prioritized the recall of positive traits that were strongly memorized before sleep, while impairing the recall of intermediate traits. The results suggest pre-TMR self-evaluative memory strength modulated the TMR benefits. Sleep EEG analyses revealed that compared with weak/intermediate/control traits, re-playing strongly memorized traits during sleep elicited greater sigma power changes, which likely reflect preferential memory reactivation. Our results demonstrate the potential implication of wakeful cue-approach training and sleep-based memory reactivation in strengthening positive self-evaluative memories.
