Studies of cognitive control using tasks with isolated (single-item) vs. multiple (multi-item)
item presentation have shown that multi-item tasks may be more effective in capturing …

Cognitive control has been typically examined using single-item tasks. This has implications
for the generalizability of theories of control implementation. Previous studies have revealed …

This dissertation is grounded on the notion of automaticity and focuses on one of the most
popular tasks in the domain of experimental psychology, that is, the Stroop task. The aim of …

In the current study, we addressed modality-specificity of the flexibility of cognitive control.
We compared performance in single-task and mixed-tasks blocks between blocked auditory …

Cognitive control is applied in situations that require overriding a habitual and automatic
response. The conflict monitoring hypothesis and the Expected Value of Control (EVC) …

This thesis reports a series of experiments designed to test the relative impacts of
instrumental workload (eye movements), cognitive workload (memory, attention), and …

Researchers have found no agreement on whether dual-task interference in language
performance, such as dual-task interference from tone discrimination on picture naming …

Among the issues examined by studies of cognitive control in multitasking is whether
processes underlying performance in the different tasks occur serially or in parallel. Here we …

Earlier studies had shown that speakers naming several objects typically look at each object
until they have retrieved the phonological form of its name and therefore look longer at …
