Summary

Higher stop-signal probability prolonged go reaction time but shortened stop-signal reaction time (SSRT). Preparation cost correlated with SSRT, suggesting preparation aids response inhibition.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Human reaction time studies

Background:

  • Response inhibition is crucial for goal-directed behavior.
  • Understanding factors influencing response inhibition is key to cognitive control research.
  • Stop-signal reaction time (SSRT) is a common measure of inhibitory control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the effect of stop-signal probability on reaction times and inhibitory control.
  • To examine the relationship between preparation cost and stop-signal reaction time (SSRT).
  • To determine if preparation facilitates response inhibition.

Main Methods:

  • Participants performed a stop-signal task with varying stop-signal probabilities.
  • Go reaction time and stop-signal reaction time (SSRT) were measured.
  • Correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between preparation cost and SSRT.

Main Results:

  • Higher stop-signal probability led to longer go reaction times.
  • Higher stop-signal probability resulted in shorter stop-signal reaction times (SSRT).
  • Preparation cost was positively correlated with SSRT.

Conclusions:

  • Stop-signal probability significantly influences both go and stop-signal reaction times.
  • Preparation appears to play a facilitatory role in response inhibition.
  • Findings contribute to the understanding of cognitive control mechanisms.
