To head rather than heed to temptations is easier said than done. Since tempting actions are
often contextually inappropriate, selective suppression is invoked to inhibit such actions …

An elaborated diffusion process model (a Diffusion Model for Conflict Tasks, DMC) is
introduced that combines conceptual features of standard diffusion models with the notion of …

If many changes are necessary to improve the quality of neuroscience research, one
relatively simple step could have great pay‐offs: to promote the adoption of detailed …

People tend to slow down after they make an error. This phenomenon, generally referred to
as post-error slowing, has been hypothesized to reflect perceptual distraction, time wasted …

Stroop and Simon tasks are logically similar and are often used to investigate cognitive
control and inhibition processes. We compare the distributional properties of Stroop and …

Abstract Model comparison in Bayesian mixed models is becoming popular in psychological
science. Here we develop a set of nested models that account for order restrictions across …

To summarise skewed (asymmetric) distributions, such as reaction times, typically the mean
or the median are used as measures of central tendency. Using the mean might seem …

In the present study, we examined how the relevance of potentially distracting information
modulates the interplay of target and distractor processing in conflict tasks. Specifically, we …

In conflict tasks, such as the Simon, Eriksen flanker, or Stroop task, the congruency effect is
often reduced after an incongruent compared to a congruent trial: the congruency sequence …

The dynamics of congruency effects in conflict tasks can be analyzed by means of delta plots
which depict the reaction-time differences between incongruent and congruent conditions …
