Fore-period consistency: learners preparation to respond to a situation in uences response preparation time. Warning signal: fore-period: interval of time between presentation of a signal and stimulus. Ideally should be 1-4 s: consistent fore-period length vs randomized fore-period length. Stimulus-response compatibility: the extent to which a stimulus and its required response are naturally related, when s-r compatibility is low: additional time needed to prepare a response (reaction time increase) Attention: individuals can only pay attention/process limited number of activities at any time. Limited attentional capacity: when limit is exceeded, competition for resources occurs resulting in: Attentional demands on available attentional resources: figure 2. 7.
