The recruitment of an additional biomechanical degree of freedom in a unimanual rhythmic task was explored. Subjects were asked to synchronize adduction or abduction of their right index finger with a metronome, the frequency of which was increased systematically. In addition, haptic contact on or off the metronome beat was provided. Results…

Lien, Mei-Ching; McCann, Robert S.; Ruthruff, Eric; Proctor, Robert W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
The present study examined whether the central bottleneck, assumed to be primarily responsible for the psychological refractory period (PRP) effect, is intact, bypassed, or shifted in locus with ideomotor (IM)-compatible tasks. In 4 experiments, factorial combinations of IM- and non-IM-compatible tasks were used for Task 1 and Task 2. All…

Tombu, Michael; Jolicoeur, Pierre – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2004
An examination of previous claims for virtually perfect time-sharing in dual-task situations reveals confounding effects that may have obscured dual-task interference. Two experiments are conducted in which these confounding effects are minimized, revealing statistically significant dual-task interference. These results support the hypothesis that…

Oliva, Aude; Wolfe, Jeremy M. Arsenio, Helga C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2004
How do observers search through familiar scenes? A novel panoramic search method is used to study the interaction of memory and vision in natural search behavior. In panoramic search, observers see part of an unchanging scene larger than their current field of view. A target object can be visible, present in the display but hidden from view, or…
