metadata.value: Models of cognitive control contain the mechanism of the general strategy of solving a task
  and control of specific stimuli special mechanisms. There is an ongoing discussion as to which
  control is responsible for the Gratton effect and the Stroop test’s proportion effect. The Gratton
  effect consists in decreasing the Stroop effect after an incongruent stimulus, the proportion
  effect is to increase interference when incongruent stimuli predominate among other types of
  stimuli. In this study, we set out to test whether there would be an interaction between these
  effects. If it is detected, we can say that both effects of study are produced by a general cognitive
  mechanism. Similar studies of general strategy using the Stroop task include congruent
  and incongruent stimuli. Congruent stimuli produce a response facilitation effect that is
  mixed with an interference effect, making final interpretation difficult. To avoid this, we used
  different proportions of incongruent and neutral stimuli. We conducted three experiments using
  different proportions of incongruent versus neutral stimuli (66:33/33:66 and 80:20/20:80),
  as well as the type of design (intragroup and intergroup plans). Only the Gratton effect was
  detected in the experiments performed — no proportion effect or significant interaction between
  the Gratton and proportion effects was found. In three experiments (N = 70), only indirect
  evidence was found for the effect of proportion on the Gratton effect. These results
  are difficult to explain in terms of “strategic” interference model who explain both effects by
  a change in the global strategy for solving the task. Given the systematic lack of interaction
  between the Gratton effect and other effects in the literature, we can say that the Gratton effect
  is caused by a local control system, which the proportion effect influences, if at all, only
  slightly. The connection between the proportion effect and strategic control and the factors
  that mediate it are discussed.
