Temporal course of cognitive control in a picture-word interference task.

چکیده
The neural correlates of cognitive control in a picture-word interference task were investigated in 13 healthy individuals using event-related potentials. The differences between the incongruent condition and the congruent condition were examined. Behavioral data showed that the task yielded a robust interference effect as indexed by a longer reaction time for the incongruent condition. Scalp event-related potential analysis revealed greater negative differences in N300 and N570 in the incongruent compared with the congruent condition. The results showed that there may be two cognitive control phases during conflict resolution in a picture-word interference task. N300 is a critical sign of conflict monitoring in the primitive stage, whereas N570 embodies the response conflict in the terminal stage.

An accumulator model of semantic interference Action editor : Andrea Stocco
To explain latency effects in picture-word interference tasks, cognitive models need to account for both interference and stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) effects. As opposed to most models of picture-word interference, which model the time course during the task in a ballistic manner, the RACE model (retrieval by accumulating evidence) presented in this paper accounts for semantic interference ...

This study aimed to investigate the impact of task sequencing, along +/- reasoning demands dimension, on writing task performance in terms of accuracy. The study was motivated by Robinson’s Cognition Hypothesis (CH) as well as previous studies investigating the relationships between task complexity and second language production. The participants of the study were 90 intermediate students at t...
متن کاملThe Locus of the Gratton Effect in Picture-Word Interference
Between-trial effects in Stroop-like interference tasks are linked to differences in the amount of cognitive control. Trials following an incongruent trial show less interference, an effect suggested to result from the increased control caused by the incongruent previous trial (known as the Gratton effect). In this study, we show that cognitive control not only results in a different amount of ...

متن کاملLexical selection with competing distractors: Evidence from left temporal lobe lesions.
According to the competition account of lexical selection in word production, conceptually driven word retrieval involves the activation of a set of candidate words in left temporal cortex and competitive selection of the intended word from this set, regulated by frontal cortical mechanisms. However, the relative contribution of these brain regions to competitive lexical selection is uncertain....
