For as long as half a century the Simon task–in which participants respond to a nonspatial
stimulus feature while ignoring its position–has represented a very popular tool to study a …

While the role of cortical regions in cognitive control processes is well accepted, the
contribution of subcortical structures (eg, the striatum), especially to the control of response …

The present study investigated global behavioral adaptation effects to conflict arising from
different distractor modalities. Three experiments were conducted using an Eriksen flanker …

We combined analyses of reaction time (RT) distributions with experimental manipulations
of different processing stages (perception, decision, motor execution) in a Simon task to …

Compatible (positive approaching and negative avoiding) and incompatible (positive
avoiding and negative approaching) behavior are of great significance for biological …

Aims By performing three transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) experiments, we
measured the motor‐specific modulatory mechanisms in the primary motor cortex (M1) at …

Previous studies have shown incorrect motor activation when making perceptual decisions
under conflict, but the potential involvement of motor processes in conflict resolution is still …

The sense of lack of control has been shown to foster illusory pattern perception,
superstition, conspiracy and religious beliefs. In two identical experiments we investigated …

In the present study, we tested the idea that relevant and irrelevant location-based
activations are combined when selecting a response in the Simon task. For this purpose, we …

Interference tasks combining different distractor types usually find that between-trial
adaptations (congruency sequence effects [CSEs]) do not interact with each other …
