Left column: Congruent trial with a target and two flankers; all items derive from the same category. Right column: Incongruent trial, the target, and the flankers derive from different categories.

Experimental conditions.
Note: Task order (both blocks) and congruence of the tasks (pure block) were counterbalanced across participants. Congruence was manipulated within participants, the factor block was manipulated between the participants.

Means and standard deviations (in brackets) for hit rates of flankers and targets, separately for each condition, and for both experiments.
| MEANS (STANDARD DEVIATION) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PURE | MIXED | ||||
| CONGRUENT | INCONGRUENT | CONGRUENT | INCONGRUENT | ||
| Experiment 1 | Flanker | .263 (.172) | .235 (.138) | .224 (.124) | .258 (.139) |
| Target | .636 (.213) | .682 (.192) | .675 (.214) | .683 (.215) | |
