“…Children are globally slower to respond than adults, most probably due to slower speed processing and higher difficulties to allocate sustained attention to the task. Moreover, response preparation is known to be slower in children, as compared to adults (Bender, Weisbrod, Bornfleth, Resch, & Oelkers-Ax, 2005;Flores, Digiacomo, Meneres, Trigo, & Gomez, 2009;Urben, Van der Linden, & Barisnikov, 2011). Our results show that even if children are generally slower than adults, similar interference effects are observed between the 2 groups.…”
