J Cogn
. 2025 Jan;
8(1):9.
PMID: 39803179
Many theories on cognitive effort start from the assumption that cognitive effort can be expended at will, and flexibly up- or down-regulated depending on expected task demand and rewards. However,...

. 2025 Jan;
62(1):e14761.
PMID: 39791288
Pupil size is a well-established marker of cognitive effort, with greater efforts leading to larger pupils. This is particularly true for pupil size during task performance, whereas findings on anticipatory...

PMID: 39419164
Previous research suggests that the mere presence of a smartphone can detrimentally affect performance. However, other studies failed to observe such detrimental effects. A limitation of existing studies is that...

Commun Psychol
. 2024 Sep;
2(1):8.
PMID: 39242891
Humans can up- or downregulate the degree to which they rely on task information for goal-directed behaviour, a process often referred to as cognitive control. Adjustments in cognitive control are...

Cognition
. 2024 Jul;
251:105885.
PMID: 39024843
Current theories propose that mental effort is invested only when the anticipated benefits, such as rewards, outweigh the associated costs, like task difficulty. Yet, it remains unclear whether this motivational...

J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform
. 2024 May;
50(7):769-784.
PMID: 38722582
Task-irrelevant stimuli often capture our attention despite our best efforts to ignore them. It has been noted that tasks involving perceptually complex displays can lead to reduced interference from distractors....

. 2022 Dec;
232:103818.
PMID: 36577334
Novel events catch our attention, which can influence performance of a task. Whether this attentional capture by novelty benefits or impairs performance depends on several factors, such as the relevance...

. 2021 Dec;
84(3):655-670.
PMID: 34964093
Our attention is constantly captured and guided by visual and/or auditory inputs. One key contributor to selecting relevant information from the environment is reward prospect. Intriguingly, while both multimodal signal...

PMID: 34858147
In a new environment, humans and animals can detect and learn that cues predict meaningful outcomes, and use this information to adapt their responses. This process is termed Pavlovian conditioning....
