Dual-task interference in simple tasks: Data and theory
- Psychological Bulletin
, 1994
"... People often have trouble performing 2 relatively simple tasks concurrently. The causes of this interference and its implications for the nature of attentional limitations have been controversial for 40 years, but recent experimental findings are beginning to provide some answers. Studies of the psy ..."

additional and distinct forms of interference. These conclusions challenge widely accepted ideas about attentional resources and probe reaction time methodologies. They also suggest new ways of thinking about continuous dual-task performance, effects of extraneous stimulation (e.g.. stop signals

Dual-task and neuropsychology 1
"... Dual-task and neuropsychology 2 This study examined the relation of dual-task performance to individual differences on neuropsychological tests. Neuropsychological tests scores from 16 young and 16 old participants were simultaneously submitted to a factor analysis that yielded two factors (attentio ..."

Is dual-task slowing instruction dependent
- Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance
"... When 2 tasks must be performed concurrently, each requiring a choice of response, dual-task slowing is typically found. However, E. H. Schumacher et al. (1997) reported that dual-task slowing can be eliminated when equal priority is assigned to each task. Experiment 1 largely confirmed this with the ..."

Effects of Single- and Dual-Task Practice on Acquiring Dual-Task Skill
"... In two experiments we examined the effects of single- and dual-task training on the acquisition and transfer of dual-task skill. Subjects performed two consistently mapped (CM) visual search tasks (word-category search and spatial-pattern search). Experiment 1 demonstrated benefits in both reaction ..."

Dual-task interference and the cerebral hemispheres
- Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance
, 1993
"... It has been argued that dual-task interference is reduced when the two cerebral hemispheres can carry out the two tasks independently. Evidence for this idea has arisen from studies involving manipulations such as lateralized stimulation or response, or requiring mental operations believed to depend ..."

Integrative views on dual-task costs
"... In this paper, we introduce a special issue about unique and shared mechanisms underlying the performance limitations observed in dual tasks. In particular, the relationship between task-switching costs, the attentional-blink effect, and the psychological refractory period effect is reviewed. These ..."

The unity and diversity of executive functions and their contributions to complex “Frontal Lobe” tasks: a latent variable analysis
- COGNIT PSYCHOL
, 2000
"... This individual differences study examined the separability of three often postulated executive functions—mental set shifting ("Shifting"), information updating and monitoring ("Updating"), and inhibition of prepotent responses ("Inhibition")—and their roles in complex ..."

Sorting Test (WCST), Tower of Hanoi (TOH), random number generation (RNG), operation span, and dual tasking. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the three target executive functions are moderately correlated with one another, but are clearly separable. Moreover, structural equation modeling
