Neural congruency effects in the multi-source interference task vanish in healthy youth after controlling for conditional differences in mean RT.

According to the conflict monitoring model of cognitive control, reaction time (RT) in distracter interference tasks (e.g., the Stroop task) is a more precise index of response conflict than stimulus congruency (incongruent vs. congruent). The model therefore predicts that RT should be a reliable pr...
