RT results. a Mean RTs from trials with correct responses for both tasks across the singleton distractor present and singleton distractor absent conditions, plotted separately for low physical versus high physical load conditions. b Singleton distractor effects were assessed as the difference in RTs between singleton distractor present and absent conditions. The high physical load condition resulted in a larger distractor interference effect. c The difference in the singleton distractor effect from low to high loads (i.e., the interaction effect in a; see main text for detail) significantly correlated with the difference in exerted grip force from low to high loads (Δ%MVC: high–low load) across the participants. The solid and dashed lines represent the best linear fit and its 95% confidence interval, respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) with 95% confidence interval and p value are presented in the figure. Error bars in a and b represent standard error of mean
