Table 3.

Mean reaction times (RTs) and percentage error rates (and corresponding 95% confidence intervals) in MC and MI conditions for the task-irrelevant and task-relevant trigger types examined in Experiment 1 (based on stimuli involving transfer components)

Trigger Type	RTs (ms)			Error rates (%)
	MC condition	MI condition	Effect	MC condition	MI condition	Effect
Task-irrelevant (MC words vs. MI words)	792 [764, 820]	790 [763, 818]	2	4.51 [2.85, 6.82]	3.10 [1.69, 4.52]	1.41
Task-relevant (MC colors vs. MI colors)	799 [774, 825]	777 [751, 804]	22	4.20 [3.17, 5.23]	3.23 [2.24, 4.22]	.97

Note. The contrast for the task-irrelevant component trigger is based on transfer colors appearing with incongruent MC vs. MI words (see items shaded in light grey in Table 1). The contrast for the task-relevant component trigger is based on transfer words appearing with incongruent MC vs. MI colors (see items shaded in dark grey in Table 1)

MC mostly-congruent, MI mostly-incongruent
