Are there control processes, and (if so) can they be studied?

Abstract: Generally, so-called control processes are thought to be necessary when we must perform one out of several competing actions. Some examples include performance of a less well-practiced action instead of a well-practiced one (prepotency); learning a new action (novelty); and rapidly switching from one action to another (task-switching). While it certainly is difficult to perform the desired action in these circumstances, it is less clear that a separate set of processes (e.g., control processes) are necessary t… Show more

“…These include domain-specific working memory interference (Hazeltine & Wifall, 2011), strategic effects based on task context (Israel & Cohen, 2011), modality-specific processing pathways (Schumacher et al, 2011;Stephan & Koch, 2011), interference based on common (spatial) codes (Atchley et al, 2011) or on shared visual modules (shape, color, word, see Israel & Cohen, 2011), and RSB models (at least for results within the PRP paradigm, see Israel & Cohen, 2011;Stelzel & Schubert, 2011). Further papers additionally discuss the role of cognitive control processes (Wylie et al, 2011), and within-and between-trial crosstalk (Huestegge, 2011).…”

“…In the case of abstract code crosstalk, the pre-activation of a prepotent modality system results in an overlap between modalityspecific processing systems that needs to be resolved to respond with the correct motor effector. In both cases, additional coordination demands for capacity-limited central processing should be involved (but see Wylie, Sumowski, & Murray, 2011), which may be reflected in increased processing times at short SOA. As discussed for Experiment 2, response selection difficulty might further affect the degree to which these abstract central processing codes need to access certain processing modules simultaneously, and this might additionally affect the resulting interference effects.…”
