The impact of stimulus format on task inhibition during task switching
Switching between competing tasks is supported by active inhibition of the preceding task. The level of task stimulus processing at which...

The slow rate of working memory consolidation from vision is a structural limit
The speed with which information from vision is transformed into working memory (WM) representations that resist interference from ongoing perception...

Compulsory citizenship behaviour and work-family conflict: A moderated mediation model
The purpose of this study is to test the factors that impact the effects that compulsory citizenship behaviour (CCB) has on work-family conflict...

Not So Automatic Imitation: Expectation of Incongruence Reduces Interference in Both Autism Spectrum Disorder and Typical Development
Research has observed evidence for both hypo -(supposedly due to a broken mirror neuron system) and hyper -(thought to be the result of deficits in...

Statistical learning in visual search reflects distractor rarity, not only attentional suppression
In visual search tasks, salient distractors may capture attention involuntarily, but interference can be reduced when the salient distractor appears...

Emotional interference in isolation and in others’ presence
Assuming the importance of a social dimension in appraisal of emotion, here we investigate how social presence impact emotional interference effects....

Recalling fake news during real news corrections can impair or enhance memory updating: the role of recollection-based retrieval
Fake news can impair memory leading to societal controversies such as COVID-19 vaccine efficacy. The pernicious influence of fake news is clear when...

Voluntary task switching is affected by modality compatibility and preparation
Cognitive task control can be examined in task-switching studies. Performance costs in task switches are usually smaller with compatible...

Surprise! Draw the scene: Visual recall reveals poor incidental working memory following visual search in natural scenes
Searching within natural scenes can induce incidental encoding of information about the scene and the target, particularly when the scene is complex...

Action plan interrupted: resolution of proactive interference while coordinating execution of multiple action plans during sleep deprivation
The ability to retain an action plan to execute another is necessary for most complex, goal-directed behavior. Research shows that executing an...

Limitations of cognitive control on emotional distraction – Congruency in the Color Stroop task does not modulate the Emotional Stroop effect
Emotional information receives prioritized processing over concurrent cognitive processes. This can lead to distraction if emotional information has...

Conditional automaticity: interference effects on the implicit memory retrieval process
Many studies have indicated that executing a secondary task during encoding has little influence on implicit memory (priming effect). However,...

Interference scores have inadequate concurrent and convergent validity: Should we stop using the flanker, Simon, and spatial Stroop tasks?
BackgroundTwo-hundred one college undergraduates completed four nonverbal interference tasks (Simon, spatial Stroop, vertical Stroop, and flanker)...

Error modulates categorization of subsecond durations in multitasking contexts
Monitoring errors consumes limited cognitive resources and can disrupt subsequent task performance in multitasking scenarios. However, there is a...

Comparing cognition by integrating concept learning, proactive interference, and list memory
This article describes an approach for training a variety of species to learn the abstract concept of same/different, which in turn forms the basis...

Toward a formal theory of proactivity
Beyond merely reacting to their environment and impulses, people have the remarkable capacity to proactively set and pursue their own goals. The...

Developmental Changes in the Association Between Cognitive Control and Anxiety
Anxiety has been associated with reliance on reactive (stimulus-driven/reflexive) control strategies in response to conflict. However, this...

Mechanisms of output interference in cued recall
The primary aim of this paper is to elucidate the mechanisms governing output interference in cued recall. Output interference describes the...

On the psychometric evaluation of cognitive control tasks: An Investigation with the Dual Mechanisms of Cognitive Control (DMCC) battery
The domain of cognitive control has been a major focus of experimental, neuroscience, and individual differences research. Currently, however, no...
