High impact information on Refractory Period, Psychological

  • ACT-R/PM can model simple dual tasks such as the psychological refractory period (PRP), including subtle results previously explained with executive process interactive control (EPIC, D. E. Meyer & D. E. Kieras, 1997a) [3].
  • Additionally, ERP effects are reported in the psychological refractory period (PRP) paradigm with mental rotation as the second task [4].
  • Bottleneck models of psychological refractory period (PRP) tasks suggest that a Task 1 response should be unaffected by the Task 2 response in the same trial, because selection of the former finishes before selection of the latter begins [5].
  • As a result of this difference, in the psychological refractory period paradigm, the central capacity sharing model predicts that lengthening Task 2 precentral processing will improve Task 1 performance at short stimulus onset asynchronies, whereas the central bottleneck model does not [6].
  • We examined the coordination of processing streams when two reaction stimuli are presented with minimal temporal separation (the psychological refractory period, PRP, paradigm) [7].
 

Gene context of Refractory Period, Psychological

  • To answer this question, the authors trained 6 participants for 36 sessions in a Psychological Refractory Period (PRP) experiment, where Task 1 required a speeded vocal response to an auditory stimulus and Task 2 required a speeded manual response to a visual stimulus [8].
  • We explore whether the conflict resolution of the Stroop and flanker tasks is different as well by embedding these two tasks in a PRP (Psychological Refractory Period) paradigm [9].
