The effect of N-3 on N-2 repetition costs in task switching (2014)
Journal Article
Grange, J. (2014). The effect of N-3 on N-2 repetition costs in task switching. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 760 -767. https://doi.org/10.1037/xlm0000059

N-2 task repetition cost is a response time and error cost returning to a task recently performed after one intervening trial (i.e., an ABA task sequence) compared with returning to a task not recently performed (i.e., a CBA task sequence). This cost... Read More about The effect of N-3 on N-2 repetition costs in task switching.

Can time-based decay explain temporal distinctiveness effects in task switching? (2014)
Journal Article
Grange, J. (2014). Can time-based decay explain temporal distinctiveness effects in task switching?. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 19 -45. https://doi.org/10.1080/17470218.2014.934696

In task switching, extending the response-cue interval (RCI) reduces the switch cost--the detriment to performance when switching compared to repeating tasks. This reduction has been used as evidence for the existence of task-set decay processes. Rec... Read More about Can time-based decay explain temporal distinctiveness effects in task switching?.

Models of Cognitive Control in Task Switching (2014)
Book Chapter
Grange, J., & Houghton, G. (2014). Models of Cognitive Control in Task Switching. In G. Houghton, & J. A. Grange (Eds.), . Oxford University Press. https://doi.org/10.1093/acprof%3Aosobl/9780199921959.003.0008

This chapter reviews the efforts of theorists in developing and testing formal (i.e. not purely verbal) models of cognitive control during task switching. First, it provides an overview of the architecture of extant models of task switching. To ease... Read More about Models of Cognitive Control in Task Switching.

A critical analysis of alcohol hangover research methodology for surveys or studies of effects on cognition (2014)
Journal Article
Stephens, R., Grange, J. A., Jones, K., & Owen, L. (2014). A critical analysis of alcohol hangover research methodology for surveys or studies of effects on cognition. Psychopharmacology, 231(11), 2223-2236. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00213-014-3531-4

Alcohol hangover may be defined as an adverse effect of heavy alcohol consumption present after sufficient time has elapsed for the alcohol to have been eliminated from the blood. Understanding how hangover may impair performance is important for pub... Read More about A critical analysis of alcohol hangover research methodology for surveys or studies of effects on cognition.
