Isolating perceptual conflict: a theoretical and methodological analysis of the Task-Irrelevant Paradigm.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The conflict interference effect, exemplified by the Stroop effect, serves as a key indicator for studying conflict processing and cognitive control and is typically categorized into two conflict components within conflict classification theories. Perceptual conflict is constrained by task settings in typical paradigms, making precise detection challenging. This article reviews the literature on perceptual conflict, proposes the Task-Irrelevant Paradigm (TIP) as an experimental strategy to independently investigate perceptual conflict, and provides a more systematic analysis of its theoretical, empirical, and cognitive-processing foundations. The TIP offers an effective method for more deeply exploring perceptual conflict, and a clearer framework for understanding how such conflict may persist under task-irrelevant conditions, demonstrating broad applicability across conflict interference paradigms and potential for studying implicit associations. Current empirical research involving the TIP is still relatively limited, and future studies should focus on refining task designs, clarifying boundary conditions, and advancing multimodal integration research.
