Measuring adaptive control in conflict tasks
The past two decades have witnessed an explosion of interest in the cognitive and neural
mechanisms of adaptive control processes that operate in selective attention tasks. This has …

In support of a distinction between voluntary and stimulus-driven control: A review of the literature on proportion congruent effects
Cognitive control is by now a large umbrella term referring collectively to multiple processes
that plan and coordinate actions to meet task goals. A common feature of paradigms that …

Rational metareasoning and the plasticity of cognitive control
The human brain has the impressive capacity to adapt how it processes information to high-
level goals. While it is known that these cognitive control skills are malleable and can be …

Evidence against conflict monitoring and adaptation: An updated review
JR Schmidt - Psychonomic bulletin & review, 2019 - Springer
One of the most influential ideas in recent decades in the cognitive psychology literature is
conflict monitoring theory. According to this account, each time we experience a conflict (eg …

Questioning conflict adaptation: Proportion congruent and Gratton effects reconsidered
JR Schmidt - Psychonomic bulletin & review, 2013 - Springer
Conflict adaptation is one of the most popular ideas in cognitive psychology. It purports to

Grounding cognitive control in associative learning.
Cognitive control covers a broad range of cognitive functions, but its research and theories
typically remain tied to a single domain. Here we outline and review an associative learning …
