TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - Persistence of stimulus-response compatibility effects with extended practice JO - Journal of experimental psychology: learning, memory, and cognition A1 - Dutta, A. A1 - Proctor, Robert W. SP - 801 EP - 809 VL - 18 IS - 4 N2 - The influence of extended practice on stimulus-response (S-R) compatibility effects was investigated. Three experiments, each extending over a period of 8 sessions, were conducted. The nature and degree of compatibility was manipulated across experiments. In all experiments, a persistent effect of S-R compatibility on reaction times was observed. Thus, the lower bound for reaction times appears to be less for compatible assignments than for incompatible assignments. This persistence of S-R compatibility indicates that the initial codings used to perform a novel task continue to exert an influence on later performance.
