sequence effect

sequence effect In cognition research, sequence effect usually refers to the congruency sequence effect: a change in performance across successive trials in conflict tasks such as Stroop, Flanker, or Simon tasks.

In cognition research, sequence effect usually refers to the congruency sequence effect: a change in performance across successive trials in conflict tasks such as Stroop, Flanker, or Simon tasks. It means that after an incongruent trial, the usual slowdown or accuracy cost on the next incongruent-versus-congruent comparison is smaller, reflecting trial-by-trial adjustment of cognitive control.
