Constraints in the central executive and verbal working memory attenuate cross-dimensional interference of time on space

Puntos clave

• Central executive and verbal working memory constraints significantly reduce cross-dimensional interference effects.
• When participants engage in tasks involving both time and space, interference is notably lower due to these constraints.
• Analysis of cognitive tasks delineated how the central executive functions within the framework of verbal working memory.
• These findings highlight the need for further exploration into the mechanisms of cognitive interference in diverse contexts.
