Working memory operates over the same representations as attention.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
A recent study observed a working memory (WM) Stroop effect with a magnitude equivalent to that of the classic Stroop effect, indicating that WM operates over the same representations as attention.

Can irrelevant but salient visual cues compensate for the age-related decline in cognitive conflict resolution?-An ERP study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
We studied a Posner-type gaze-cued version of a Simon task to characterize age-related changes in visuospatial attention and inhibitory control. Earlier results had indicated that the direction of gaze is a strong social cue that speeds response times ...

The self in conflict: actors and agency in the mediated sequential Simon task. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Psychol, 2015
Executive control refers to the ability to withstand interference in order to achieve task goals. The effect of conflict adaptation describes that after experiencing interference, subsequent conflict effects are weaker. However, changes in the source of conflict have been found to disrupt conflict adaptation.

The Simon Effect Asymmetry for Left- and Right-Dominant Persons

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2023
When participants respond to a task-relevant stimulus attribute by pressing a left or right key with the respective index finger, reaction time is shorter if task-irrelevant left-right stimulus location corresponds to that of the response key than if it ...

Task demands determine hand posture bias on conflict processing in a Simon task [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2015
A huge body of research in humans and monkeys has provided evidence for altered processing of items that are presented close to the hands. At the same time, the underlying mechanisms that explain why objects close to the hands are processed differently from objects far from the hands are still debated.

Joint Simon effect in rats: Validation across two strains and exploratory analysis of the influence of familiarity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Examining 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.

The influence of prior practice and handedness on the orthogonal Simon effect

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
When stimuli are arranged vertically and responses horizontally, right-handed participants respond faster with right responses to stimuli presented above fixation and with left responses to stimuli presented below fixation, even when stimulus position is

Evidence for strategic suppression of irrelevant activation in the Simon task [PDF]

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2013
It is well known that the Simon effect usually decreases with an increasing response time. According to a prominent account this is due to a gradually increasing suppression of irrelevant location-induced activation. What is open, however, and what was investigated in the present study, is to what extent this selective suppression can be adjusted ...

Conflict processing in the rat brain: behavioral analysis and functional µPET imaging using [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2012
Conflicts in spatial stimulus-response tasks occur when the task-relevant feature of a stimulus implies a response towards a certain location which does not match the location of stimulus presentation.

Social reward improves the voluntary control over localized brain activity in fMRI-based neurofeedback training

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
Neurofeedback (NF) based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rt-fMRI) allows voluntary regulation of the activity in a selected brain region. For the training of this regulation, a well-designed feedback system is required.
