Summary of Findings

	N	IV1	IV2	Design	Main findings
Exp.1	78	Action-target proportion (high / low)	Action frequency proportion (high/low)	Stimuli: words 2×2 within	Higher action-target proportion: less accurate, more misses, more false alarms. Differs from pattern of frequently practiced behavior, which is more false alarms for more frequent go trials and more misses for more frequent no-go trials.
Exp. 2	65	Action-target proportion (high / low)		Stimuli: people 2 within	Higher action-target proportion: less accurate, more misses, more false alarms.
Exp. 3	65	Action-target proportion (high / low)	Cognitive load (high / low)	Stimuli: words 2×2 within	Higher action-target proportion: less accurate, more misses, more false alarms. Interaction: smaller action-target proportion effect when cognitive load is high for both misses and false alarms.
Exp. 4	148	Action-target proportion (high / low)	Attention focus (action, inaction, control)	Stimuli: words 2×3 within	Control condition similar to the action-focus condition. Action/control focus: Higher action-target proportion: less accurate, more misses, more false alarms. Inaction focus: reverse effect for misses, weakened effect for false alarms.
