Flanker Task Performance in Isolated Dystonia (Blepharospasm): A Focus on Sequential Effects

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
Isolated dystonia manifests with involuntary muscle hyperactivity, but the extent of cognitive impairment remains controversial. We examined the executive functions in blepharospasm while accounting for motor symptom-related distractions as a factor ...

Early and late indications of item-specific control in a Stroop mouse tracking study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Published: May 17, 2018Previous studies indicated that cognitive conflict continues to bias actions even after a movement has been initiated. The present paper examined whether cognitive control also biases actions after movement initiation.

The congruency sequence effect transfers across different response modes

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2015
The congruency effect observed in distracter interference tasks is usually smaller after incongruent relative to congruent trials. However, the nature of control processes underlying this congruency sequence effect (CSE) remains a topic of active debate.

The role of anterior cingulate cortex in the affective evaluation of conflict [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An influential theory of anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) function argues that this brain region plays a crucial role in the affective evaluation of performance monitoring and control demands.

Congruency sequence effect without feature integration and contingency learning

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2014
The magnitude of congruency effects, such as the flanker-compatibility effects, has been found to vary as a function of the congruency of the previous trial. Some studies have suggested that this congruency sequence effect is attributable to stimulus and/or response priming, and/or contingency learning, whereas other studies have suggested that the ...

Once Bitten, Twice Shy: On the Transient Nature of Congruency Sequence Effects [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
Life is ambiguous at times, presenting conflicting situations and conflicting response tendencies. For example, when confronted with a jinxing soccer opponent, you might easily be fooled by a skillful leg feint and fail to react to the direction of the ball.

Generalizing attentional control across dimensions and tasks: evidence from transfer of proportion-congruent effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Three experiments investigated transfer of list-wide proportion congruent (LWPC) effects from a set of congruent and incongruent items with different frequency (inducer task) to a set of congruent and incongruent items with equal frequency (diagnostic ...

Turning distractors into targets increases the congruency sequence effect

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2019
The congruency effect in distractor-interference tasks is typically smaller after incongruent trials than after congruent trials. Current views posit that this congruency sequence effect (CSE) reflects control processes that come into play when an irrelevant distractor cues a different response than a relevant target.

Conceptualising quality early childhood education: Learning from young children in Brazil and South Africa through creative and play‐based methods

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Early childhood has increasingly been acknowledged as a vital time for all children. Inclusive and quality education is part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, with the further specification that all children have access to quality pre‐primary education.

Affective modulation of cognitive control is determined by performance-contingency and mediated by ventromedial prefrontal and cingulate cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cognitive control requires a fine balance between stability, the protection of an on-going task-set, and flexibility, the ability to update a task-set in line with changing contingencies.
