Description: The task was to avoid collisions of relevant moving dots with the central object by pressing the space bar if the dot passed a deflection point in a visible predicted trajectory without changing direction to avoid the central object. A text cue at the start of each block indicated which colour of dot was relevant for that block. There were two target frequency conditions. In ‘Monitoring’ blocks, target dots were ~6.2% of cued-colour dots (2 out of 32 dots). In ‘Active’ blocks, target dots were 50% of cued-colour dots (16 out of 32 dots).
