See the technical phrasing
Perceptual novelty has a diminishing influence on exploratory choices over time, with its effect significantly decreasing as exposure increases, as evidenced by a significant interaction with time (z = −4.12, β = −0.49, p < .001, OR = 0.61), indicating a stronger impact of novelty on decision-making during early stages of exploration.
