Here's another new paper, fronted by Yu-Chin Chiu (now at @Purdue_PsychSci) in collaboration with Kerstin Froeber (Uni Regensburg), extending our item-specific switch learning work to the choice domain:
Item-specific priming of voluntary task switches. https://t.co/Mz1CLQpDiz

Some prime lockdown reading material for those interested in the interaction of learning and control processes. More nice work from @chbejjani:
Performance feedback promotes proactive but not reactive adaptation of conflict-control. https://t.co/WWDPwlH1cq
