Human Central Processing Bottlenecks: For more than 70
years, behavioral research has shown that people
experience surprisingly severe delays in performing
two or more tasks at the same time if the two tasks
require central processing (such as choosing actions
or retrieving information from memory). There has been
much debate about the exact nature of this dual-task
interference and what sort of processing bottleneck or
other limitation causes it. In this course we will
explore these debates, reading classic papers on the
topic as well as recent research articles.
