The following hypotheses were tested in two consecutive experiments: first, that individual differences in the amount of cognitive resources possible to allocate to an activity or process correspond to individual differences in negative priming effect, and second, that negative priming is sensitive to cognitive load. The results suggest that the amount of negative priming effect results from the allocation of cognitive resources and that individual differences in cognitive capacity is related to the ability to efficiently handle irrelevant information. Additionally, the results support the assumptions that cognitive load decreases the negative priming effect.

The cognitive load is believed to cause mental fatigue, moreover recent studies suggest that it could also results in better performance of the following task. The purpose of two presented studies was to examine the cognitive load influence on controlled (C) and automatic (U) influences of memory in word-stem completion task. After memorization of words list participants were asked to complete stems under process dissociation procedure conditions. To examine the time effects of cognitive load participants performed the arithmetic task for 5, 10, 15 or 30 min before word-stem completion task. The results of the experiments indicate that the cognitive load for 10 - 15 min results in more accurate completion in C influence. The results of U influence stays intact in E1, but E2 indicate lower U influence for grups performed the arithmetic task for 10 -15 min.The conclusions about the mental fatigue and warm-up effects on implicit and explicit memory were presented. The results are also analyzed regarding the implicit and explicit memory dissotiation .

Time is ubiquitous to our everyday life. Therefore, the current research was conducted with the aim to further elucidate the nascent topic of executive resources recruitment in human prospective timing. For this purpose, a specific within-subject experimental procedure was conducted. Participants (N = 43) completed a timing task (reproduction of intervals) and tasks tapping three core executive functions (working memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility), under single and dual-task conditions. Statistical analysis of the interference effect revealed disruption of timing similarly under all three core executive loads. This was reflected in under-reproductions of intervals in comparison to control conditions. Furthermore, an analysis revealed a significant effect of duration, thus, timing impairment was observed in longer durations, not in the shortest one. For an interpretation of the results, an executive-gate model (modification of an attentional-gate model) was used. The results and limitations are further discussed.

David Navon (1984) in his critical paper on the validity of the cognitive resources metaphor put into question the testability of this construct in current psychology comparing resources to a theoretical soup stone. The skepticism of cognitive psychologists is rarely shared by social psychologists who commonly apply the limited resources metaphor to illustrate the role of processing capacity in many social phenomena. In the current paper, both original assumptions of theories of limited attentional resources and the idea of application of methods for diagnosing limited processing capacity in experimental social psychology are discussed. The aim of this presentation is to show common solutions used for testing the assumption of cognitive resources limitation in social psychology research. The second important issue is to point out some specific problems that stem from the application of original methods of cognitive psychology in explanations of complex social behaviors.
