“…Hommel (1998) coined the term "event file" to emphasize the binding between a feature and the action performed on it. He proposed that the co-occurrence of a feature and a response would spontaneously cause the two to bind.…”

“…Previous experiments have shown that within an event file the strength of the bindings between the various features and between features and their associated responses may be sensitive to task demands (e.g., Gordon & Irwin, 1996;Henderson, 1994;Hommel, 1998). For example, Hommel (1998) reported that the binding between location and form affected performance only when form was task-relevant ans not when color was task-relevant.…”

Although many theories of attention assume that attending to an object results in the processing of all its feature dimensions, there has been no direct evidence that the irrelevant dimensions of an attended nontarget object are encoded. This article explores factors that modulate such processing. In 6 experiments, participants made a speeded response to a probe preceded by a prime that varied in 2 dimensions. Their reaction times to the probe were influenced by the response compatibility between the relevant and irrelevant dimensions of the prime. Furthermore, the effect was observed only when attention was directed to a nonlocation object feature and when participants' reaction times were relatively long. These results suggest that the effect of attention on a nontarget object is more complex than was previously understood.

“…In binary choice tasks, such sequential modulation effects have often been explained in terms of bottom-up driven S-R feature repetitions and/or feature bindings (Hommel, 1998;Hommel et al, 2001Hommel et al, , 2004Nieuwenhuis, Stins, Posthuma, Polderman, Boomsma, & De Geus, 2006;Notebaert et al, 2001;Wendt, Kluwe, & Peters, 2006). 1 If a stimulus and the response to the stimulus co-occur in time, their features related to task-relevant stimulus or response dimensions are spontaneously integrated into a common event file comprising both stimulus-and response-related feature information such as form and position (Hommel et al, 2004).…”

Recent research has shown that joint-action effects in a social Simon task provide a good index of action co-representation. The present study aimed to specify the mechanisms underlying joint action by considering trial-to-trial transitions. Using non-social stimuli, we assigned a Simon task to two participants. Each was responsible for only one of two possible responses. This task was performed alone (Individual go/nogo task) and in cooperation with another person who was sitting alongside (Joint go/nogo task). As a further control task, we added a Standard Simon task. Replicating previous findings (Sebanz et al. in Cognition 88:B11-B21, 2003), we found no spatial compatibility effect in the Individual go/nogo task but we did find one in the Joint go/nogo task. A more detailed analysis showed that a sequential modulation of the Simon effect was present in both the Joint and the Individual go/nogo tasks. We found reliable Simon effects in trials following Simon compatible trials not only in the Joint go/nogo task but also to a somewhat smaller extent in the Individual go/nogo task. For both these go/nogo tasks, sequential modulation effects were stronger for nogo/go transitions than for go/go transitions. This suggests that low-level feature binding and repetition mechanisms contribute to the social Simon effect related to the specific requirement not to respond on nogo trials.

“…In addition, the present study asked whether the effects of visual dimension changes and of response changes would interact at some point in the processing, which may be expected from the behavioral literature (e.g., Hommel, 1998;Kingstone, 1992;Lockhead et al, 1978).…”

In an event-related fMRI study, we investigated the neural correlates of visual dimension and response changes. We used a compound task, which required target selection by a singleton feature, a unique color or motion direction, before the appropriate motor response, which was determined by target orientation, could be selected. Both types of change elicited distinct patterns of activation, with dimension-changerelated activation primarily in posterior visual areas and responserelated activation primarily in motor-related areas of the parietal and frontal cortices. Response-change-related activation was delayed by about 1 s relative to dimension-change-related activation, suggesting that the latter is elicited by perceptual processes, whereas the former reflects response-related or post-response processes. Although dimension changes and response changes rely on different processes, they are not independent: response facilitation was observed for combined dimension and response repetitions, this facilitation, however, was disrupted by dimension changes.
