奖励设计直接影响自动驾驶智能体关注什么，决定其安全感知策略。

We investigate how reward design shapes the internal attention patterns of reinforcement learning agents trained for autonomous driving. Using three Perceiver-based agents that share identical architectures and training data but differ only in their reward configurations$\unicode{x2014}$ranging from basic violation penalties to continuous proximity penalties$\unicode{x2014}$we analyze cross-attention allocation across 50 real-world scenarios from the Waymo Open Motion Dataset. A central methodological finding is that naïve pooling of timesteps across episodes substantially underestimates the attention$\unicode{x2013}$risk relationship; within-episode correlation with Fisher z-transform aggregation is the appropriate statistic and reveals a robustly positive link between collision risk and agent-directed attention. Building on this validated methodology, we demonstrate two reward-conditioned effects: agents trained with navigation rewards allocate up to $2.0\times$ more attention to GPS-path tokens than those trained with additional proximity penalties$\unicode{x2014}$and $4.7\times$ more than agents with no navigation incentive$\unicode{x2014}$revealing that reward content directly determines which scene elements the encoder prioritizes, and continuous time-to-collision penalties create a $\textit{learned vigilance prior}$$\unicode{x2014}$elevated resting agent surveillance maintained throughout collision-free phases. In several scenarios, the complete-reward and minimal-reward models exhibit opposite attention$\unicode{x2013}$risk correlation directions, demonstrating that reward design can qualitatively reverse attentional strategy rather than merely modulating its magnitude. These results suggest that attention analysis is a practical diagnostic for verifying that a reward function produces the intended representational behaviour in safety-critical RL systems.
