Sharing tasks or sharing actions? Evidence from the joint Simon task. [PDF]
Psychol Res, 2018 In a joint Simon task, a pair of co-acting individuals divide labors of performing a choice-reaction task in such a way that each actor responds to one type of stimuli and ignores the other type that is assigned to the co-actor. It has been suggested that the actors share the mental representation of the joint task and perform the co-actor's trials as ...

Joint Simon effect in rats: Validation across two strains and exploratory analysis of the influence of familiarity. [PDF]
PLoS ONEExamining the influence of others on joint actions could clarify the basal mechanisms underlying social coordination in non-human animals. The joint Simon task is used for this purpose, and some non-human animals have demonstrated the joint Simon effect.

Action co-representation and the sense of agency during a joint Simon task: Comparing human and machine co-agents [PDF]
Consciousness and Cognition, 2019 Recent studies have suggested that individuals are not able to develop a sense of joint agency during joint actions with artificial systems. We sought to examine whether this lack of joint agency is linked to individuals' inability to co-represent the machine-generated actions.

How vertical elevation affects self-other integration as measured by the joint Simon effect
Acta Psychologica, 2021 Earlier findings suggest that positions of power decrease self-other integration and increase psychological distance to others. Until now, however, evidence for this relation rests exclusively on subjective measures. The current research instead employed

Effect of virtual interactions through avatar agents on the joint Simon effect. [PDF]
PLoS ONEThe joint Simon effect refers to inhibitory responses to spatially competing stimuli during a complementary task. This effect has been considered to be influenced by the social factors of a partner: sharing stimulus-action representation.

The Medial Frontal Cortex Mediates Self-Other Discrimination in the Joint Simon Task
Journal of Psychophysiology, 2016 Abstract. Interacting with other individuals confronts cognitive control systems with the problem of how to distinguish between self-generated (internally triggered) and other-generated (externally triggered) action events. Recent neuroscience studies identified two core brain regions, the anterior medial frontal cortex (aMFC) and the right temporo ...

Is Mental Effort Exertion Contagious? A Replication Study [PDF]
Journal of CognitionDaily, we perform activities in the presence of others (e.g., office work). While it’s well-established that the mere presence of others can influence our performance, it is less clear whether others’ performance, rather than just their presence ...

Behavioural ProcessesNonhuman 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 ...

The joint Simon effect: A review and theoretical integration
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 The social or joint Simon effect has been developed to investigate how and to what extent people mentally represent their own and other persons’ action/task and how these cognitive representations influence an individual’s own behavior when interacting ...

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Different reference frames are used in daily life in order to structure the environment. The two-choice Simon task setting has been used to investigate how task-irrelevant spatial information influences human cognitive control.
