“…This model was originally developed to explain different types of stimulus-response congruency (SRC) effects in RT research and has become a prominent model in this field (e.g., Liu et al 2010;Shiu and Kornblum 1999;Tlauka 2005;Wascher et al 1999). The model holds that the degree of dimensional overlap between stimulus and response sets depends on two key features (see Kornblum et al 1990, p. 258): First, the overlap increases with the amount of similarity between the two sets, and second, it also increases with greater homomorphical mapping between elements of the two sets.…”

Several pieces of evidence suggest that our mental representations of time and space are linked. However, the extent of this linkage between the two domains has not yet been assessed. We present the results of two experiments that draw on the predictions of the dimensional overlap model (Kornblum, Hasbroucq, & Osman, Psychological Review 97:253-270, 1990). The stimulus and response sets in these reaction time experiments were related to either time or space. The obtained stimulus-response congruency effects were of about the same size for identical stimulus-response sets (timetime or space-space) and for different stimulus-response sets (time-space or space-time). These results support the view that our representations of time and space are strongly linked.

“…The three tasks vary in cognitive load of stimulus processing and response selection, as well as in the nature of the conflict, such as S–S, S–R or the mixture of both. The Stroop task requires more processes than the Simon and Flanker tasks (Kornblum, 1994; Liu et al, 2010). Thus, the associations between lower dual-hormone levels and poorer efficiency in the RTs in the Stroop task are consistent with previous evidence that lower testosterone was associated with decreased performance in tasks requiring complex information processing (Green et al, 2004).…”

“…The Simon task requires attentional control on the conflicts stemming from stimulus–response (S–R) incompatibility (Proctor and Reeve, 1990). The Stroop task measures the mixed S–S and S–R incompatibilities (Liu et al, 2010). S–S and S–R conflict control have been shown to develop differently with different developmental speeds and patterns (Diamond and Taylor, 1996; Jongen and Jonkman, 2008; Bryce et al, 2011).…”

Cognitive control is related to goal-directed self-regulation abilities, which is fundamental for human development. Conflict control includes the neural processes of conflict monitoring and conflict resolution. Testosterone and cortisol are essential hormones for the development of cognitive functions. However, there are no studies that have investigated the correlation of these two hormones with conflict control in preadolescents. In this study, we aimed to explore whether testosterone, cortisol, and testosterone/cortisol ratio worked differently for preadolescent’s conflict control processes in varied conflict control tasks. Thirty-two 10-year-old children (16 boys and 16 girls) were enrolled. They were instructed to accomplish three conflict control tasks with different conflict dimensions, including the Flanker, Simon, and Stroop tasks, and electrophysiological signals were recorded. Salivary samples were collected from each child. The testosterone and cortisol levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The electrophysiological results showed that the incongruent trials induced greater N2/N450 and P3/SP responses than the congruent trials during neural processes of conflict monitoring and conflict resolution in the Flanker and Stroop tasks. The hormonal findings showed that (1) the testosterone/cortisol ratio was correlated with conflict control accuracy and conflict resolution in the Flanker task; (2) the testosterone level was associated with conflict control performance and neural processing of conflict resolution in the Stroop task; (3) the cortisol level was correlated with conflict control performance and neural processing of conflict monitoring in the Simon task. In conclusion, in 10-year-old children, the fewer processes a task needs, the more likely there is an association between the T/C ratios and the behavioral and brain response, and the dual-hormone effects on conflict resolution may be testosterone-driven in the Stroop and Flanker tasks.

“…In our experiment, there were two types of S I dimensions in the color discrimination task: the egocentric and allocentric locations of the target. According to the dimensional overlap model, the interference effect will be larger if the two pairs of dimensions both conflict than if only one pair does, while the facilitation effect will be stronger if the two pairs of dimensions are both congruent than if only one pair is congruent (Liu et al, 2010). The results of Experiment 1 indeed showed that RTs were significantly shorter when the two S I dimensions were both congruent with the response code, and were significantly longer when the two S I dimensions were both incongruent with the response code (Fig.…”

“…Dimensional overlap is defined as a similarity of perceptual, conceptual, or structural attributes between any combinations of: (1) the relevant dimension of the stimulus set and the response set, (2) the irrelevant dimension of the stimulus set and the response set, and (3) the relevant and irrelevant dimensions of the stimulus set. The factorial combination of these three factors results in eight types of potential SR ensembles (Kornblum et al, 1990;Kornblum & Lee, 1995;Kornblum, Stevens, Whipple, & Requin, 1999;Liu, Park, Gu, & Fan, 2010;Zhang & Kornblum, 1998). According to this model, there is dimensional overlap between the irrelevant stimulus dimension (S I ; e.g., left of mid-sagittal plane or left side of plate) and the response dimension (R; e.g., press left-hand key), whereas no overlap exists between the relevant stimulus dimension (S R ; e.g., dark gray) and S I or between S R and R in a typical Simon task (Kornblum et al, 1990;Kornblum & Lee, 1995;Kornblum et al, 1999; …”

The classic Simon effect refers to the phenomenon that responses are faster when the task-irrelevant egocentric stimulus location is on the same side as the response hand than when not. However, the spatial location of an object often varies according to which reference frame the object location was represented in, e.g., egocentric versus allocentric reference frame. It has been unknown, however, whether and how the Simon effect based on the egocentric and the allocentric reference interact, and whether the potential interaction between them is affected by task demands. To investigate these questions, we orthogonally crossed the stimulus-response compatibility induced by the egocentric and the allocentric positions during the Simon effect. Moreover, the irrelevant egocentric and allocentric positions were either explicitly represented via interleaving spatial and non-spatial tasks in Experiment 1 or not in Experiment 2. The results suggested that the Simon effect based on the egocentric locations occurred irrespective of whether the egocentric representations were explicitly coded based on current task demands or not. The Simon effect based on allocentric locations, however, seemed to occur only when the allocentric representations were explicitly induced. Moreover, the egocentric and allocentric Simon effect interacted in a similar way irrespective of task demands, with significantly delayed responses when both the egocentric and the allocentric locations were incongruent with the response code.
