A study by Correa-Chavez et al. (2005) examined cultural differences in ability to simultaneously or alternately attend to a given situation (origami folding instructions given in a classroom setting).
Participants were either
from Central and North American countries or from European countries. What was found?
a) Central and North Americans were more likely to simultaneously attend; Europeans were more likely to alternate their focus of attention.
b) Europeans were more likely to simultaneously attend; Central and North American were more likely to
alternate their focus of attention.
c) Europeans were faster at learning the origami than the Central and North Americans.
d) There were no differences in ability to simultaneously attend, but no one could alternate attention very well.
Question 2
Bottleneck theories of attention:
a) propose that there is no such thing as dual-task interference.
b) propose that dual-task interference will be more acute with longer SOAs.
c) processing of two tasks occurs completely in parallel.
d) fail to account for findings from the PRP paradigm.
