Experimental research indicates that SoA is inferred based on different agency cues. We investigated whether younger (18–28 years) and older (65–75 years) adults differ in their use of three of these cues, namely action-effect congruency, affective valence of the effect, and temporal relation between action and effect. In an experiment, participants first learned to associate keypresses with positively and negatively valenced effects (positive or negative smileys). Subsequently, participants performed the same keypresses. Keypresses were, after different intervals, followed by positive or negative smileys. Smileys were either congruent or incongruent with the previously acquired action-effect associations. Participants were told that the occurrence of a smiley was either caused by their keypress or was automatically generated by the computer independent of their keypress. In each trial, participants indicated how sure they are that they caused the effect (authorship rating). Authorship ratings were higher for congruent than for incongruent effects and for positively than for negatively valenced effects in both age groups. This indicates that the use of action-effect congruency and affective valence of the effect as agency cues are age-independent. Authorship ratings decreased with increasing action-effect interval in younger adults, but not in older adults. This indicates that older adults may rely less on temporal cues, presumably due to age-related differences in cue integration. In conclusion, temporal agency cues are used differently across different age groups.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104001"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146108328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given that perceptual and physical demands are often intertwined in daily activities, the present study examined children’s IB under concurrent perceptual load and physical exertion using a dual-task paradigm. Perceptual load was manipulated through a dynamic bounce-counting task that required monitoring either two or four moving letters (low vs. high perceptual load).

Results revealed a significant main effect of perceptual load, with higher perceptual load leading to increased IB rates. However, physical exertion did not produce a significant main effect on children’s IB, nor did it interact with perceptual load.

However, the contribution of these processes to AM retrieval under different circumstances remains poorly understood, particularly in the context of ageing. The extent to which different AM tasks rely on auxiliary processing could explain variability in age-related AM deficits across different contexts. The current study explores the effect of cues varying in format (words, questions, sentences, photos, and videos) and content (e.g., event cues, evaluative cues, imagery cues) on AM retrieval rates in young and older adults. In Experiment 1, young and older adults (n = 101) retrieved AMs in response to a set of 208 cues; dependent variables were the proportion of cues that produced a memory, and ratings of the characteristics of the retrieved memories. Results showed that retrieval rates were influenced by both cue format and cue content, with cues that most closely mapped the task requirements producing the largest proportion of memories, regardless of other cue features (e.g., detail, imagery). Study 2 collected data from a separate group of 106 adults concerning their interpretation of the same cues, and analysed the responses in relation to the data from Experiment 1. Both retrieval rates and memory characteristics were related to features of the cues, such as specificity, theme, and emotional content. Data suggested that less easily accessed memories tended to be more autobiographically important. All materials and data – including 2500 brief descriptions of participants’ autobiographical memories – are freely available for further exploration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"138 ","pages":"Article 103983"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145808342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both the predictive and retrospective processes are considered to contribute to this subjective feeling. The predictive process focuses on the consistency between the sensory prediction and the actual sensory input by the internal model, while the retrospective process emphasizes the detection of regularities between one’s action and sensory input. However, how the two types of processes contribute to the exploration of control remains unclear. In the present study, we tackled this question by examining the effect of updating the internal model on the SoA in a control detection task. Participants first adapted to a rotation of visual feedback while controlling a dot on the screen, then conducted free movements to choose the dot they felt they could control most effectively among five dots with different rotation angles. Experiment 1 used a tracking task for the motor adaptation, while Experiment 2 used a reaching task to replicate the result of Experiment 1. The results of the motor adaptation in both experiments did not have a significant effect on the control detection task. This indicates that updating the internal model appears to have little influence on the regularity detection. Accordingly, we suggest that participants’ SoA was more dependent on retrospective than predictive processes during exploration of the SoA. These findings provide important insights for understanding the SoA in the context of exploratory behaviors within novel environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"138 ","pages":"Article 103980"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145808341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presence of others has been shown to create a diffusion of responsibility and thus reduce individuals’ explicit ratings of control.

In two online experiments, we showed that when being induced to feel that they were working with an artificial virtual agent who could potentially act in a shared task, participants felt less control i.e., explicit measure. We also found greater temporal binding (an implicit measure) implying a stronger sense of agency; that is, the opposite pattern of results compared with the explicit measure. Across the two experiments conducted online, we demonstrated that these effects were due to the implied ability for the partner to act and not an effect of social presence per se. We propose that explicit measures of agency reflect the conscious attribution of responsibility, while implicit measures reflect the strength of the representation of the causal links between action and effect. These data reinforce recent theoretical developments in our understanding of the sense of agency and social agency when working with an artificial partner.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"137 ","pages":"Article 103962"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145514991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
