Papers
Control and interference in task switching--a review.
Andrea Kiesel,Marco Steinhauser,Mike Wendt,Michael Falkenstein,Kerstin Jost,Andrea M. Philipp,Iring Koch +6 more
TL;DR: The task-switching paradigm offers enormous possibilities to study cognitive control as well as task interference, and the current review provides an overview of recent research on both topics.
The role of inhibition in task switching: A review
TL;DR: The authors reviewed the evidence for the inhibition of task sets and argued that most of these findings, such as switch cost asymmetries, are ambiguous and focused on n-22 task repetition costs, which currently constitute the most convincing evidence for inhibition.
Cognitive structure, flexibility, and plasticity in human multitasking—An integrative review of dual-task and task-switching research.
TL;DR: It is argued that research on dual-task interference and sequential task switching has proceeded largely separately using different experimental paradigms and methodology, and is aimed at organizing this complex set of research in terms of three complementary research perspectives on human multitasking.

The Role of Response Selection for Inhibition of Task Sets in Task Shifting
Stefanie Schuch,Iring Koch +1 more
TL;DR: The authors concluded that inhibition of irrelevant task sets arises only at response selection and that residual shift costs reflect such persisting inhibition.

Inhibitory processes in language switching: Evidence from switching language-defined response sets
TL;DR: This article used language-defined response sets (digit names from 1 to 9 in different languages) to explore inhibitory processes in language switching and found that the shift cost was larger for the relatively dominant language than for the non-dominant language.
