The effect of regulatory focus on attention residue and performance during interruptions

Leroy (2016) · Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes · Read the paper

Sophie Leroy and Schmidt report three studies that combine attention residue with regulatory focus theory. They find that the framing of the interrupted task and the framing of the interrupting task interact to affect how well people switch between them. The abstract does not report the direction or size of the framing effects, so none is given here.
