Abstract
The paper discusses the bimanual dual-task interference, demonstrated through tapping experiments where periodic dominant hand tapping was shown to strongly interact with single stimulus evoked discrete taps of the non-dominant hand. As a consequence, it proposes the progressive combination hypothesis ( which states that computation from sensory input to motor output could be generated progressively) to be reconsidered within this context.
