Reaction time cost with symbolic cues
• Coupling during movement preparation
• Increased processing demands on response selection– Translate two different
symbolic cues– Assign a movement to
each arm

Discussion
• Increased cognitive processing for response selection with symbolically-cued asymmetric movements– Coupling was also related to response selection• Reaction time cost• Errors in target selection
• Coupling is limited to the processes that require greater cognitive control
