Abstract

Multitasking is a required skill for complex and dynamic activities such as driving a car and piloting an airplane. Previous research in cognitive modeling has suggested that top-down control improves multitasking ability (Taatgen, 2005). An empirical study has been conducted to investigate how a basic neuro-cognitive effect (attentional blink) makes top-down control possible and improves multitasking performance.
