Recent studies employing the spatial interference paradigm reveal qualitative differences in congruency effects between gaze and arrow targets.

Instructions allow us to fulfill novel and complex tasks on the first try. This skill has been linked to preparatory brain signals that encode upcoming demands in advance, facilitating novel performance. To deepen insight into these processes, we explored whether instructions pre-activated task-relevant motoric and perceptual neural states.
