Abstract

We designed a visual-auditory cross-model stop signal task to test the monitoring and adjustment of response inhibition based on the independent and interactive race model. It was implemented by E-Basic language based on E-Prime 2.0 software. 16 schoolchildren and 19 university students participated in the task. The Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) decreases with the age grows, which indicates the inhibition ability improves from childhood to adolescent period. The experimental results suggest that this cross modal program is reliable and can provide technique support for further clinical applications.
