Description

This was a within-subjects experimental design investigating multitasking, specifically, a visual task being done along with a motor task. Participants were asked to indicate if an animal on the screen was a reptile or a mammal. However, in the "distractor condition" participants had to indicate whether an animal was a reptile or a mammal while also moving a finger along with a moving circle.
