Exploring the ERP trace of task-set control in the composite design task-switching paradigm by Fangyuan Zhou, Zhongjin Tian, Xiangqian Li

“…Participants in the compound retrieval group exclusively used the compound retrieval strategy, while those in the control group could employ both the compound retrieval strategy and task rules. In Experiment 2, we varied the number of target stimuli to influence participants’ strategies, with participants in the task rule group utilizing task rules, and those in the control group permitted to use both task rules and the compound retrieval strategy.ResultsThe results revealed that Switch Positivity, the N2 difference wave, and the P3 difference wave were absent across all group conditions, regardless of the strategies employed.DiscussionThese findings suggest that the disappearance of these ERP components in the composite design is not attributable to the use of compound retrieval strategies.…”

Cognitive flexibility in aging: the impact of age range and task difficulty on local switch costs in task switching by Tara Radović, Sebastian Kübler, Sebastian Kübler, Rafael Mikolajczyk, Alexander Kluttig, Viktoria Maydych, Torsten Schubert

“…IntroductionPrevious studies provided inconclusive results regarding the effects of aging on the ability to flexibly switch between task rules (local switch cost). The goal of the present study was to investigate the influence of age on the local switch costs at two levels of difficulty (easy task switching: two task rules vs. difficult task switching: four task rules).MethodsThe local switch costs, i.e., reaction time and error differences between trials with a task switch and task repetition relative to the previous trial, were compared in a group of young adults (19 to 33 years) and three groups of older adults (64–72; 73–80; 82–97 years).ResultsThe analysis of the switch costs showed significantly higher switch costs of the three groups of older adults compared to the younger adults and the effect was more pronounced in the difficult task switching than in the easy task switching. …”

Task switching with probabilistic reward schemes by Markus Janczyk, Ludwig Danwitz, Kerstin Fröber, Bettina von Helversen

“…Previous research has shown that transitions in reward prospect influence (voluntary) task switching behavior. Specifically, an increase in reward prospect appears to enhance flexibility, as indicated by a higher voluntary switch rate (VSR), compared to situations where the reward prospect remains high. …”
