Adaptive behaviour requires the ability to focus on a task and protect it from distraction
(cognitive stability) and to rapidly switch tasks when circumstances change (cognitive …

Despite instructions to ignore the irrelevant word in the Stroop task, it robustly influences the
time it takes to identify the color, leading to performance decrements (interference) or …

We describe an ambitious ongoing study that has been strongly influenced and inspired by
Don Stuss's career-long efforts to identify key cognitive processes that characterize …

Cognitive control relies on distributed and potentially high-dimensional frontoparietal task
representations. Yet, the classical cognitive neuroscience approach in this domain has …

Functional connectivity (FC) studies have identified at least two large-scale neural systems
that constitute cognitive control networks, the frontoparietal network (FPN) and cingulo …

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 …

Abstract In the standard Proportion-Congruent (PC) paradigm, performance is compared
between a list containing mostly congruent (MC) stimuli (eg, the word RED in the color red in …

The domain of cognitive control has been a major focus of experimental, neuroscience, and
individual differences research. Currently, however, no theory of cognitive control …

People segregate continuously unfolding experiences into discrete events in memory. This
process, known as event segmentation, results in better memory for the temporal order of …

Understanding language requires readers and listeners to cull meaning from fast-unfolding
messages that often contain conflicting cues pointing to incompatible ways of interpreting …
