abstract = {The Simon effect shows that choice reactions are faster if
the location of the stimulus and the response correspond,
even when stimulus location is task-irrelevant. The Simon
effect raises the question of what factors influence spatial
coding. Until now, the effects of handedness, responding
hand, and visual field were addressed in separate studies
that used bimanual and unimanual tasks, providing
inconclusive results. Here we aimed to close this empirical
gap by looking at the effects of these variables in the same
study. We used a unimanual version of a Simon task with four
groups of participants: left-handed and right-handed,
responding with the dominant or nondominant hand. Our
results show that the Simon effect is substantially reduced
in the field of the responding hand for all groups of
participants, except for left-handed individuals responding
with the left-hand. These findings highlight the importance
of attention mechanisms in stimulus-response coding. They
reflect that stimulus-response interference is influenced by
hierarchical activation of response units. At a practical
level, these findings call for a number of methodological
considerations (e.g., handedness, responding hand, and
visual field) when using stimulus-response conflict to
address spatial coding and cognitive control functions in
neurological populations.},
