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.
