Did the Doolittle Raid convince Japanese leaders to attack Midway Island?

Indirectly, yes. The Doolittle attack in April, 1942, showed that the US carriers were as much of a threat to Japan as they had thought. The attack on Midway (June 4-7, 1942) was planned as a way to draw out the US carriers, since Pearl Harbor was now heavily defended. Unfortunately, the US, alerted to the Japanese movements, turned the tables with a trap of their own, sinking 4 Japanese carriers at the cost of one of their own, the Yorktown.
