Does tool use extend peripersonal space? A review and re-analysis

NP Holmes - Experimental brain research, 2012 - Springer
The fascinating idea that tools become extensions of our body appears in artistic, literary,
philosophical, and scientific works alike. In the last 15 years, this idea has been reframed …

Training and transfer effects in task switching

M Minear, P Shah - Memory & cognition, 2008 - Springer
Performance on task switching, a paradigm commonly used to measure executive function,
has been shown to improve with practice. However, no study has tested whether these …

Comparing switch costs: alternating runs and explicit cuing.

EM Altmann - … of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and …, 2007 - psycnet.apa.org

Dissociating restart cost and mixing cost in task switching

E Poljac, I Koch, H Bekkering - Psychological Research PRPF, 2009 - Springer
Three experiments investigated the cognitive mechanisms underlying the restart cost and
mixing cost in task switching. To this aim, the predictability of task order was varied …

Transfer of task-switching training in older age: the role of verbal processes.

J Karbach, S Mang, J Kray - Psychology and aging, 2010 - psycnet.apa.org
This study investigated the influence of verbal self-instructions (VSI) on the transfer of task-
switching training in older adults (56–78 years). We applied an internally cued switching …

Adjustments of task-set control processes: Effect of task switch frequency on task-mixing and task-switching costs

CA Bonnin, D Gaonac'h, CA Bouquet - Journal of Cognitive …, 2011 - Taylor & Francis
The present study tested the hypothesis that task-switch frequency triggers adjustments of
task-set control processes. A mixed-task condition where task switches are frequent should …
