Increased cognitive control after task conflict? Investigating the N-3 effect in task switching (2018)
Journal Article
Grange, J. (2018). Increased cognitive control after task conflict? Investigating the N-3 effect in task switching. Psychological Research, 1703-1721. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-018-1025-4

Task inhibition is considered to facilitate switching to a new task and is assumed to decay slowly over time. Hence, more persisting inhibition needs to be overcome when returning to a task after one intermediary trial (ABA task sequence) than when r...

Justify your alpha (2018)
Journal Article
Grange, J. (2018). Justify your alpha. Nature Human Behaviour, 168-171. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41562-018-0311-x

In response to recommendations to redefine statistical significance to P = 0.005, we propose that researchers should transparently report and justify all choices they make when designing a study, including the alpha level.

Inhibition in task switching: The reliability of the n-2 repetition cost (2017)
Journal Article

The n-2 repetition cost seen in task switching is the effect of slower response times performing a recently completed task (e.g. an ABA sequence) compared to performing a task that was not recently completed (e.g. a CBA sequence). This cost is though... Read More about Inhibition in task switching: The reliability of the n-2 repetition cost.

The effect of episodic retrieval on inhibition in task switching (2017)
Journal Article
Grange. (2017). The effect of episodic retrieval on inhibition in task switching. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1568-1583. https://doi.org/10.1037/xhp0000411

Inhibition in task switching is inferred from n–2 repetition costs: the observation that ABA task switching sequences are responded to slower than CBA sequences. This is thought to reflect the persisting inhibition of Task A, which slows reactivation... Read More about The effect of episodic retrieval on inhibition in task switching.

Temporal Distinctiveness in Task Switching: Assessing the Mixture-Distribution Assumption (2016)
Journal Article
Grange, J. (2016). Temporal Distinctiveness in Task Switching: Assessing the Mixture-Distribution Assumption. Frontiers in Psychology, 251 -?. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.00251

In task switching, increasing the response-cue interval has been shown to reduce the switch cost. This has been attributed to a time-based decay process influencing the activation of memory representations of tasks (task-sets). Recently, an alternati...

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?.
