Practice effects vs. transfer effects in the Simon task. [PDF]
Psychol Res, 2021 AbstractThe Simon effect refers to the fact that, even though stimulus position is task-irrelevant, responses to a task-relevant stimulus dimension are faster and more accurate when the stimulus and response spatially correspond than when they do not.

Oscillatory dynamics serving visual selective attention during a Simon task. [PDF]
Brain Commun, 2023 Abstract Selective attention is an important component of cognitive control and is essential for day-to-day functioning. The Simon task is a common test of visual selective attention that has been widely used to probe response selection, inhibition and cognitive control.

Cognitive Control and Bilingualism: The Bilingual Advantage Through the Lens of Dimensional Overlap
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Past research shows that the bilingual experience may enhance cognitive executive function. In this experiment, we evaluated cognitive control in bilinguals relative to monolinguals by using a dimensional overlap model to predict performance in a task ...

Alcohol approach tendencies in heavy drinkers: comparison of effects in a relevant stimulus-response compatibility task and an approach/avoidance Simon task [PDF]
, 2011 Several recent studies suggest that alcohol-related cues elicit automatic approach tendencies in heavy drinkers. A variety of tasks have been used to demonstrate these effects, including Relevant Stimulus-Response Compatibility (R-SRC) tasks and variants

A domain-general monitoring account of language switching in recognition tasks : evidence for adaptive control [PDF]
, 2019 Language switching experience is assumed to have an effect on domain-general control abilities in bilinguals, but previous studies on the relationship between these two variables have generated mixed results. The present study investigated the effects of

Spatial incompatibility training can prevent the occurrence of the enhanced Simon effect in elderly
Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas), 2022 The Simon effect is typically larger for older people than for young adults, maybe due to age-related decline in inhibitory capabilities. 32 right-handed aged people (5 male, 27 female; mean of 67,1 years ± 5,5) participated in this study.

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