“…However, these increases were accompanied by behavioral markers of inattention, which may indicate impairment in maintaining attention focused on the task. One possibility that might be tested in future studies is that reward sensitivity favors a cognitive profile of higher flexibility Avila & Parcet, 1997;Poy et al, 2004;Prabhakaran et al, 2011), which is necessary for correct performance in the No-go and Infrequent-go trials, but comes at the cost of increased distractibility (Aarts et al, 2011), which impairs performance in the condition that requires attentional focusing. In behavioral terms, increased distractibility can be manifested as wider RT variability.…”
