Funded Activity Summary

The Ins and Outs of the Central Bottleneck. Humans display severe capacity limitations at multiple levels of information processing. When considering, with modern technological advances, the amount of multitasking one is called upon to do in every day life (e.g., talking on a hands-free mobile phone device and driving) it is vital to understand what stages of information processing interfere with one another. The present work will extend our knowledge regarding which cognitive operations can be performed concurrently without impairment. In addition, it will help us better understand processing limitations that have been linked to a variety of clinical groups such as those suffering from schizophrenia and mood disorders.
