Investigating task preparation and task performance as triggers of the backward inhibition effect.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Psychological research [Psychol Res] 2023 Sep; Vol. 87 (6), pp. 1816-1835. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Dec 26.
Abstract: Backward inhibition is posited to aid task switching by counteracting the tendency to repeat a recent task. Evidence that factors such as cue transparency affect backward inhibition seems to imply that it is generated during task preparation, making it...
Competition and reward structures nearly eliminate time-on-task performance decrements: Implications for theories of vigilance and mental effort.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of experimental psychology. Human perception and performance [J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform] 2023 Sep; Vol. 49 (9), pp. 1256-1270. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jul 20.
Abstract: Across four experiments, we manipulated features of a simple reaction time (RT) task to examine the effects of such features on sustained attention. In Experiment 1, we created simple RT "game" that pitted participants against two computerized avatars....
Dual-task effects between tone counting and mathematical calculations.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Applied ergonomics [Appl Ergon] 2023 Sep; Vol. 111, pp. 104052. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 May 20.
Abstract: We examined the impact of performing a tone counting task of varying cognitive loads and mathematical calculations simultaneously, compared to performance on the same tasks done individually. Participants performed continuous mathematical calculations,...
Bilateral arm movements are coordinated via task-dependent negotiations between independent and codependent control, but not by a "coupling" control policy.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of neurophysiology [J Neurophysiol] 2023 Sep 01; Vol. 130 (3), pp. 497-515. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Aug 02.
Abstract: Prior research has shown that coordination of bilateral arm movements might be attributed to either control policies that minimize performance and control costs regardless of bilateral symmetry or by control coupling, which activates bilaterally homolo...
The content-dependent effect of the N-back task on dual-task performance.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Behavioural brain research [Behav Brain Res] 2023 Aug 24; Vol. 452, pp. 114511. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 May 30.
Abstract: Impaired task accuracy under dual-task conditions leads to issues such as falls and traffic accidents. Specific cognitive tasks (e.g., the N-back task) potentially improves dual-task performance. This study aims to establish an effective cognitive-task...
How do generalized reciprocity and negative reciprocity influence employees' task performance differently? the mediating role of social exchange and the moderating role of emotional labor.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): The Journal of social psychology [J Soc Psychol] 2023 Sep 03; Vol. 163 (5), pp. 605-622. Date of Electronic Publication: 2021 Nov 10.
Abstract: Generalized reciprocity and negative reciprocity have been demonstrated to influence employees' psychological states and outcomes differently. Drawing upon social exchange theory and emotion regulation theory, we develop a model that specifies whether ...
The influence of team workload on team performance in the light of task complexity: a study of nuclear fire brigades.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): International journal of occupational safety and ergonomics : JOSE [Int J Occup Saf Ergon] 2023 Sep; Vol. 29 (3), pp. 1231-1240. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Sep 30.
Abstract: The aim of the study was to explore the effect of perceived team workload on team performance among nuclear fire brigades of the Hungarian nuclear power plant. Our sample consisted of six firefighting teams ( N = 42 individuals) who were involved in t...
A Comparison of Baseline Procedures in Task Analyses.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Behavior modification [Behav Modif] 2023 Sep; Vol. 47 (5), pp. 1144-1169. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jul 26.
Abstract: Several methods for assessing baseline performance in chained tasks have been outlined in the literature, including the fixed-opportunity probe (FOP) and the multiple-opportunity probe (MOP). Concerns have been raised regarding how each of these method...
Time expectancies in dual tasking: Evidence for proactive resource sharing?
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of experimental psychology. Human perception and performance [J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform] 2023 Aug; Vol. 49 (8), pp. 1123-1131. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jun 15.
Abstract: The present study explored whether dual-task performance is affected by deviations from the expected time point of a secondary task. In two psychological refractory period experiments, participants responded to two tasks, separated by either a short or...
All the good care: Valuation and task differentiation in older person care.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Sociology of health & illness [Sociol Health Illn] 2023 Sep; Vol. 45 (7), pp. 1560-1577. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 May 11.
Abstract: Task reallocation is increasingly foregrounded as a promising solution for capacity problems. Numerous studies show, however, that task reallocation between medical professionals is a highly contested issue and difficult to institutionalise. Conflicts ...
