The carry-over effect of competition in task-sharing: evidence from the joint Simon task. [PDF]
The Simon effect, that is the advantage of the spatial correspondence between stimulus and response locations when stimulus location is a task-irrelevant dimension, occurs even when the task is performed together by two participants, each performing a go/

Excluded but not alone. Does social exclusion prevent the occurrence of a Joint Simon Effect (JSE)? [PDF]
The Joint Simon Effect (JSE) is known to reflect the natural and spontaneous tendency to integrate actions from another individual into our own action system during joint action.

Deciphering the nature of the joint Simon effect through electromyographic analyses [PDF]
This study aimed to apply electromyographic techniques and distributional analyses to test whether an increase in the strength of stimulus-response mapping could explain the mechanisms underlying the joint Simon effect. Within a single protocol, participants performed a Simon task and a Go/NoGo task in isolation, and a joint Go/NoGo task with a co ...

Association between Reaction Times in the Joint Simon Task and Personality Traits [PDF]
Joint go and no-go effects (joint Simon effects; JSEs) are considered to have a stimulus–response compatibility effect on joint reaction time tasks (joint Simon task) caused by the presence of other people.

When a Social Experimenter Overwrites Effects of Salient Objects in an Individual Go/No-Go Simon Task – An ERP Study [PDF]
When two persons share a Simon task, a joint Simon effect occurs. The task co-representation account assumes that the joint Simon effect is the product of a vicarious representation of the co-actor’s task.

A Meta-Analysis of the Joint Simon Effect. [PDF]
Since its design in 2003, the joint Simon task and corollaryjoint Simon effect (JSE) have been invaluable tools towardsthe study of joint action and the understanding of howindividuals represent the action/task of a co-actor. Thepurpose of this meta-analysis was to systematically andquantitatively review the sizeable behavioural evidence forthe JSE ...

Does implicit mentalizing involve the representation of others' mental state content? Examining domain-specificity with an adapted Joint Simon task [PDF]
Implicit mentalizing involves the automatic awareness of others’ perspectives, but its domain-specificity is debated. The Joint Simon task demonstrates implicit mentalizing as a Joint Simon effect (JSE), proposed to stem from spontaneous action co ...

Exploring social influences on the joint Simon task: Empathy and friendship [PDF]
Tasks for which people must act together to achieve a goal are a feature of daily life. The present study explored social influences on joint action using a Simon procedure for which participants (n=44) were confronted with a series of images of hands ...

Inverting the joint Simon effect by intention [PDF]
The joint Simon effect (JSE) is a spatial-compatibility effect that emerges when two people complete complementary components of a Simon task. In typical JSE studies, two participants sit beside each other and perform go-no-go tasks in which they respond to one of two stimuli by pressing a button. According to the action co-representation account, JSEs

Nonhuman animals have demonstrated various cooperative behaviors; however, many examples can be interpreted as individual contributions to a task rather than true behavioral coordination. In this study, we used the joint Simon task in rats to determine whether the presence of and task sharing with a partner affected performance in a joint activity ...
