Figure 1

Trial sequence for the study phase, shown exemplarily for a rewarded trial in experiment 2. A cue word was presented indicating whether participants could win money on that trial. Participants made a category decision on the word, waited for the following number task, and then indicated quickly whether the number was higher or lower than five. In rewarded trials, they received feedback after correct decisions made within a time limit. In neutral trials, they did not receive meaningful feedback.
