The goal of our study was to determine whether these effects on attentional processing are triggered on-line at the moment self-relevance is established. In a pair of experiments, we recorded ERPs as participants viewed common objects (e.g., apple, socks, and ketchup) in the context of an \u201cownership\u201d paradigm, where the presentation of each object was followed by a cue indicating whether the object nominally belonged either to the participant (a \u201cself\u201d cue) or the experimenter (an \u201cother\u201d cue). In Experiment 1, we found that \u201cself\u201d ownership cues were associated with increased attentional processing, as measured via the P300 component. In Experiment 2, we replicated this effect while demonstrating that at a visual\u2013perceptual level, spatial attention became more narrowly focused on objects owned by self, as measured via the lateral occipital P1 ERP component. Taken together, our findings indicate that self-relevant attention effects are triggered by the act of taking ownership of objects associated with both perceptual and postperceptual processing in cortex.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1162\/jocn_a_00101","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,3]],"date-time":"2011-08-03T23:23:32Z","timestamp":1312413812000},"page":"3725-3733","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1162\/mitpressjournals.corrections.policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":89,"title":["When \u201cIt\u201d Becomes \u201cMine\u201d: Attentional Biases Triggered by Object Ownership"],"prefix":"10.1162","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"David J.","family":"Turk","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1University of Aberdeen"}]},{"given":"Kim","family":"van Bussel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1University of Aberdeen"}]},{"given":"Joanne L.","family":"Brebner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1University of Aberdeen"}]},{"given":"Andreea S.","family":"Toma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2University of British Columbia"}]},{"given":"Olav","family":"Krigolson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"3Dalhousie University"}]},{"given":"Todd C.","family":"Handy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2University of British Columbia"}]}],"member":"281","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021072901073381400_R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"425","DOI":"10.1037\/0022-3514.43.3.425","article-title":"Attention and automaticity in the processing of self-relevant information.","volume":"43","author":"Bargh","year":"1982","journal-title":"Journal of Personality & Social Psychology"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"293","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-1031(86)90016-8","article-title":"Individual construct accessibility and perceptual selection.","volume":"22","author":"Bargh","year":"1986","journal-title":"Journal of Experimental Social Psychology"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"472","DOI":"10.1016\/0168-5597(95)00116-A","article-title":"P300 in response to the subjects own name.","volume":"96","author":"Berlad","year":"1995","journal-title":"Evoked Potentials-Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"975","DOI":"10.1121\/1.1907229","article-title":"Some experiments on the recognition of speech, with one and two ears.","volume":"25","author":"Cherry","year":"1953","journal-title":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R5","first-page":"1","article-title":"Event-related brain potentials: An introduction.","volume-title":"Electrophysiology of mind: Event-related brain potentials and cognition","author":"Coles","year":"1995"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1002\/acp.2350090102","article-title":"The self and recollective experience.","volume":"9","author":"Conway","year":"1995","journal-title":"Applied Cognitive Psychology"},{"key":"2021072901073381400_R7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"312","DOI":"10.1016\/j.concog.2007.04.003","article-title":"Yours or mine?
