Exploring the mechanisms of cognitive control is central to understanding how we our behaviour. These can be studied in conflict paradigms, which require inhibition irrelevant responses perform task. It has been suggested that these tasks, detection enhances resulting improved resolution subsequent trials. If this case, then so-called congruency sequence effect expected occur cross-domain tasks. Previous research on domain-generality presented inconsistent results. In study, provide a...
Cognitive control is a set of mechanisms that help us process conflicting stimuli and maintain goal-relevant behaviour. According to the Affective Signalling Hypothesis, are aversive thus elicit (negative) affect, moreover - avoid signals affective cognitive systems work together by increasing thus, drive conflict adaptation. Several studies have found can indeed modulate adaptation, however, there currently no evidence phasic states not triggered also trigger improved control. To...
According to the Justified True Belief account of knowledge (JTB), a person can only truly know something if they have belief that is both justified and true (i.e., belief). This was challenged by Gettier (1963), who argued JTB does not explain attributions in certain situations, later called Gettier-type cases, wherein protagonist believing be but their correct due luck. Lay people may attribute protagonists with luckily beliefs. While some research has found evidence for these so-called...
The U-shaped curve has long been recognized as a fundamental concept in psychological science, particularly theories about motivation and cognitive control. In this study (N=330), we empirically tested the prediction of non-monotonic, curvilinear relationship between task difficulty control adaptation. Drawing from Motivational Intensity Theory (MIT) expected value (EVC) framework, hypothesized that intensity would increase with until maximum tolerable level, after which it decrease. To...
Many people have flipped coins but few stopped to ponder the statistical and physical intricacies of process. In a preregistered study we collected 350,757 coin flips test counterintuitive prediction from physics model human tossing developed by Diaconis, Holmes, Montgomery (D-H-M; 2007). The asserts that when flip an ordinary coin, it tends land on same side started -- D-H-M estimated probability same-side outcome be about 51%. Our data lend strong support this precise prediction: landed...

Abstract The congruency sequence effect (CSE) is one of the most investigated effects in cognitive control literature. conflict monitoring theory suggests that CSE result adjustments based on perceived conflict. A recent paper by Zhang and colleagues, has whether manipulation level changing distractor incompatibility a flanker task affects amount control. Their study produced mixed findings, somewhat supporting original theory, but also suggesting other explanations, such as repetition...
