This literature review provides the first comprehensive qualitative and quantitative
systematic synthesis of acute laboratory stress effects on older adults' cognition by …

The multicomponent nature of executive functions (EF) has long been recognized, pushing
for a better understanding of both the commonalities and the diversity between EF …

Older adults (OAs) are typically slower and/or less accurate in forming perceptual choices
relative to younger adults. Despite perceptual deficits, OAs gain from integrating information …

Decision processes within choice reaction-time (CRT) tasks are often modelled using
evidence accumulation models (EAMs), a variation of which is the Diffusion Decision Model …

In dual-task experiments, overlapping response characteristics of two subsequently
performed tasks may not only affect performance in Task 2 but also in Task 1. This …

Objective: Diffusion decision modeling (DDM) is a validated cognitive modeling method that
has been used to provide insights into why older adults are slower than younger adults on a …

Selective attention might be space-, feature-, and/or object-based. Clear support for the
involvement of an object-based mechanism is rather scarce, possibly because the …

A core prediction of models of social-cognitive functioning is that attention is preferentially
tuned to self-relevant material. Surprisingly, however, evidence in support of this viewpoint is …

Recent theoretical accounts maintain that core components of attentional functioning are
preferentially tuned to self-relevant information. Evidence in support of this viewpoint is …

Crossmodal correspondences refer to systematic associations between stimulus attributes
encountered in different sensory modalities. These correspondences can be probed in the …
