Implication

This research demonstrates the impact of exploratory attention and reward history on gaze in primates, suggesting separate systems for exploration and exploitation.

Key Points

Exploratory attention facilitates gaze toward uncertain items, enhancing information gathering.
Exploitative attention is influenced by reward history, leading to persistent fixations on previously rewarded features.
Nonhuman primates exhibit distinct gaze preferences reflecting dual attentional systems during decision-making.
Gaze behaviors in explorative sampling are largely unaffected by prior reward histories, indicating adaptive attention strategies.
