TI  - SOAP Opera: Self as Object and Agent in Prioritizing Attention.

AB  - A growing body of evidence has demonstrated that multiple sources of salience 
      tune attentional sets toward aspects of the environment, including affectively 
      and motivationally significant categories of stimuli such as angry faces and 
      reward-associated target locations. Recent evidence further indicates that 
      objects that have gained personal significance through ownership can elicit 
      similar attentional prioritization. Here we discuss current research on sources 
      of attentional prioritization that shape our awareness of the visual world from 
      moment to moment and the underlying neural systems and contextualize what is 
      known about attentional prioritization of our possessions within that research. 
      We review behavioral and neuroimaging research on the influence of self-relevance 
      and ownership on cognition and discuss challenges to this literature stemming 
      from different modes of conceptualizing and operationalizing the self. We argue 
      that ownership taps into both "self-as-object," which characterizes the self as 
      an object with a constellation of traits and attributes, and "self-as-subject," 
      which characterizes the self as an agentic perceiver and knower. Despite an 
      abundance of research probing neural and behavioral indices of self-as-object and 
      its effects on attention, there exists a paucity of research on the influence of 
      self-relevance of attention when self is operationalized from the perspective of 
      a first-person subject. To begin to address this gap, we propose the Self as 
      Ownership in Attentional Prioritization (SOAP) framework to explain how ownership 
      increases salience through attention to external representations of self-identity 
      (i.e., self as object) and attention to contextually mediated permission to act 
      (i.e., self as subject).
