- 요약Attention is a key component of cognition, enabling humans to selectively prioritize relevant information for processing, thereby contributing to effective learning and optimal decision-making. Despite being an essential cognitive ability, attention is immature in early childhood and undergoes protracted development. In this thesis, I propose three key aspects of attentional development and present four experiments to illustrate how these developmental changes shape human learning and decision-making. Specifically, I argue that attention develops 1) from being more stimulus-driven (bottom-up) to increasingly goal-driven (top-down), 2) from being more distributed to more selective, and 3) from engaging in structure-insensitive selection to structure-sensitive selection. By examining and comparing adults? and children's attention allocation and performance in a sequential decision-making task (Experiment 1), and various category learning tasks (Experiments 2 - 4), I found compelling evidence for the role of attentional development in facilitating optimal decision-making, hierarchical category acquisition, and generalization of learned knowledge. Based on the findings, I discuss how the findings challenge the traditional view of attention as a latent mechanism and posit a potentially critical role of attention in shaping model-based learning, particularly by supporting the formation of internal models.
