The results showed that dual-task interference persisted regardless of task type or order. Neither experiment found evidence that automatic tasks could eliminate interference. This suggests that resource limitations, rather than bottlenecks, may better explain dual-task costs. Specifically, when tasks ...

Experiment 1 emphasized processing the two tasks independently (serial processing), while Experiments 2 and 3 emphasized processing the two tasks simultaneously (parallel processing). Cross-task interference occurred only when the task required parallel processing and was specific to ascending numerical ...
2. 220-244 0033-2909/94/$3.00 Dual-Task Interference in Simple Tasks: Data and Theory Harold Pashler People often have trouble performing 2 relatively simple tasks concurrently. The causes of this inter- ference and its implications for the nature of attentional limitations have been controversial...
This effect, known as dual-task interference, is thought to be a proof of capacity limitation in cognition, and the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) has been highlighted as its putative neural substrate. Here we recorded single-neuron activities in LPFC while monkeys performed dual tasks that ...

Dual-task interference with equal task emphasis: Graded capacity sharing or central postponement? Most studies using the psychological refractory period (PRP) design suggest that dual-task performance is limited by a central bottleneck. Beca...

Two experiments used the locus-of-cognitive-slack method to determine whether dual-task interference occurs before or after the response selection stage. The experiments used the overlapping tasks paradigm, in which two signals, each requiring a different speeded choice response, are presented in rapid...
Typically such interference has been studied by using the refractory period paradigm52 and has been modeled in different ways in terms of how to manage the increased attentional load, e.g. the central bottleneck model53 or the central capacity sharing model54. The dual balancing task investigated...
