Three example trials from the task used in experiment 1, each including a rule cue, a response cue, and a button press response. The rule cue would indicate whether the response could be chosen (within either heights or color modality) or was specified or that there was no-rule and subjects should wait until the response cue before choosing a response. The response cue had either 1 target (thereby specifying the response) or more than 1 enabling response selection according to the rule (chosen or specified) or free response selection (after no-rule cues). Stimulus onset asynchrony is 4.25 s. Null trials looked like the background screen, introducing a variable interval between active trials. For experiment 2, only height based rules were used, with 1 or 4 targets.
