The role of response mechanisms in determining reaction time performance: Piéron’s Law revisited [PDF]
, 2004 A response mechanism takes evaluations of the importance of potential actions and selects the most suitable. Response mechanism function is a nontrivial problem that has not received the attention it deserves within cognitive psychology. In this article,

Adjustment of control in the numerical Stroop task [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 2017 In the numerical Stroop task, participants are asked to compare the physical sizes (physical task) or numerical values (numerical task) of two digits and ignore the irrelevant dimension. Participants are unable to ignore the irrelevant dimension as indicated by facilitation and interference effects.

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract When competing for resources, people appear particularly sensitive to social cues of threat, tending to submissively cede resources to more (vs. less) threatening‐looking others. This tendency appears especially pronounced among those that are physically weaker and thus more vulnerable to harm.

Экспериментальная психология, 2017 We aimed to study the psychophysiological processes that cause a physiological and reaction time Stroop effect with and without inhibition of response on stimuli. Participants (n = 26) performed two Stroop tasks. The stimuli were Russian words

Positive Affect and Cognitive Restoration: Investigating the Role of Valence and Arousal. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Positive moods are thought to restore self-control resources following depletion. However, it is not well understood whether this effect is due to affective valence (pleasantness), arousal (activation), or a combination of both.

The effectiveness of implementation intentions in children: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Self‐regulation abilities in childhood are important for long‐term academic achievement and healthy development. As self‐regulatory abilities are still developing, ‘simple’ interventions are needed to foster self‐regulation. Implementation intentions are simple plans that could promote goal achievement in children.

Further evidence on the effect of symbolic distance on Stroop-like interference [PDF]
, 1999 Pavese and Umiltà found that, in an enumeration task, Stroop-like interference is larger when the digit identity is symbolically close to the enumeration response than when it is symbolically far.

Multiple levels of control in the Stroop task [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 2008 Multiple levels of control may be used in service of reducing Stroop interference. One is list-wide, whereby interference is reduced strategically in lists that include disproportionately more incongruent trials. A second, item-specific control is observed when proportion congruence is manipulated at the level of items.

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Foreign languages are often learnt in formal and disembodied environments which may limit the emotional resonance of their vocabulary and their pragmatic usage in real‐life communication. In a context of English as a foreign language (EFL), this study examines whether elaborative processing as a teaching strategy leads to changes in the ...
