Task

Monkeys performed a visual search task in which they detected the odd shape out in an array of 6 stimuli, indicating their choice with an eye-movement to the target. One of the stimuli among the 5 non-targets had a different color than all the other stimuli making it a pop-out distractor. Shapes and color were randomly swapped (or not) on subsequent trials. Rewards were randomly varied between either small or large (4 times small).
