Resumen

En el campo del control cognitivo, una pregunta de gran interés es si el control cognitivo está formado por uno o varios mecanismos. Una forma de responder a esta pregunta ha sido la disociación de dos efectos relacionados con control cognitivo: los efectos secuenciales y los efectos de proporción de congruencia. De forma similar, este experimento tiene como objetivo disociar ambos efectos pero en este caso investigando si los efectos de proporción de congruencia se producen en ausencia de los efectos secuenciales. Para ello se presentaron dos tipos de conflicto mezclados aleatoriamente (Simon y Stroop Espacial) y con la proporción de congruencia manipulada en uno de ellos, manteniendo neutral el número de ensayos congruentes e incongruentes en el otro conflicto. Nuestros resultados mostraron que en los ensayos en los que se producía una alternancia de tipo de conflicto, y dónde los efectos secuenciales estaban ausentes, se observaron efectos de proporción de congruencia. Esto indica que, al menos en circunstancias concretas, los efectos de proporción de congruencia y secuenciales son independientes y específicos al tipo de conflicto.
