Graded capacity-sharing in dual-task interference?

Research suggests that dual-task interference is caused by a central bottleneck (together with response grouping and impaired preparation). The emphasis placed on the 1st response in these experiments, however, may have discouraged the sharing of processing resources between tasks. In the present experiment, instructions placed equal emphasis on 2 choice reaction-time tasks in which stimuli were presented simultaneously on 20% of the trials. In...
