Mechanisms and Boundaries of Cognitive Control

Sunday, May 27, 2018 · San Francisco, CA

Oral · Cognitive

Four speakers will describe emerging findings that advance our understanding of cognitive control in Stroop-like tasks. These findings reveal which events trigger control, how control develops and enhances performance, the role of task sets in establishing boundaries for control, and domain-general effects of control on real-time, rapid linguistic processing.
