Kukkonen N, Braem S, Allaert J, Eayrs J, Prutean N, Steendam S, et al.
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,...

Eayrs J, Tobing H, Steendam S, Prutean N, Notebaert W, Wiersema J, et al.
Psychophysiology . 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...

Steendam S, Prutean N, Clybouw F, Eayrs J, Kukkonen N, Notebaert W, et al.
Biol Psychol . 2024 Oct; 193:108893. 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...

Held L, Vermeylen L, Dignath D, Notebaert W, Krebs R, Braem S
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...

Prutean N, Vermeylen L, Kukkonen N, Steendam S, Eayrs J, Krebs R, et al.
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...

Eayrs J, Kukkonen N, Prutean N, Steendam S, Boehler C, Wiersema J, et al.
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....

Ruitenberg M, Abrahamse E, Santens P, Notebaert W
J Neuropsychol . 2022 Oct; 17(2):264-278. PMID: 36303524
Prior work on patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) has shown that the administration of dopaminergic medication in the early to intermediate stages of PD benefits (motor) functions associated with the...

Ivanchei I, Braem S, Vermeylen L, Notebaert W
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) . 2021 Jan; 74(6):1083-1095. PMID: 33427065
Recent studies have demonstrated that cognitive conflict, as experienced during incongruent Stroop trials, is automatically evaluated as negative in line with theories emphasising the aversive nature of conflict. However, while...

Bundt C, Boehler C, Verbruggen F, Brass M, Notebaert W
Eur J Neurosci . 2020 Nov; 53(4):1019-1028. PMID: 33222331
Action preparation is associated with a transient decrease of corticospinal excitability just before target onset. We have previously shown that the prospect of reward modulates preparatory corticospinal excitability in a...

Vermeylen L, Wisniewski D, Gonzalez-Garcia C, Hoofs V, Notebaert W, Braem S
J Neurosci . 2020 Oct; 40(45):8715-8725. PMID: 33051353
Influential theories of Medial Frontal Cortex (MFC) function suggest that the MFC registers cognitive conflict as an aversive signal, but no study directly tested this idea. Instead, recent studies suggested...
