Can Practice Eliminate the Psychological Refractory Period Effect?
Can people learn to perform two tasks at the same time without interference? 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...

description | Can people learn to perform two tasks at the same time
without interference? 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. The large PRP effect found initially (353 ms
in Session 1) shrank to only about 40 ms over the course of
practice, disappearing entirely for 1 of the 6 participants. This
reduction in the PRP effect with practice is considerably larger
than has been previously reported. The obtained pattern of factor
interactions between stimulus onset asynchrony and each of three
task difficulty manipulations (Task 1 judgment difficulty, Task 2
stimulus contrast, and Task 2 mapping compatibility) supports a
postponement (bottleneck) account of dual-task interference, both
before and after practice. |
