In particular, a fixation across appears in the center of the screen for 500ms, follows by 500 ms later by a stimulus. For each trial, four single-digit numbers will be presented in a sequential pattern with one of them missing (e.g., in ascending or descending&nbsp;order). The position of the blank in the number sequence will be the second position for half the sequences and the third position for the other half of the sequences (e.g., 1 _ 3 4; 3 4 _ 6). Participants will be asked to verbally report the missing number as quickly as possible, and the experimenter will enter their response using a <strong>separate&nbsp;keyboard<\/strong>&nbsp;that is connected (Bluetooth connection) to an iPad. More specifically, for each trial, once the participant says the answer out loud, the experimenter will need to:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman, serif; font-size: large;\"><strong>1) Press the spacebar (RT recorded).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman, serif; font-size: large;\"><strong>2) Type the number (participant&#8217;s verbal response recorded) in the keyboard.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman, serif; font-size: large;\"><strong>3) Press enter to proceed to the next trial.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman, serif; font-size: large;\">Participants who fail to respond after the time limit will be led to the next trial.
