Abstract: Sequential multiple sources of interference information can potently conflict with our goaldirected behavior. The present study is designed to investigate the gender difference in conflict adaptation by using the multisource interference task (MSIT). The behavioral data were recorded from 56 Chinese undergraduates (28 females) during performance of the MSIT. The response time (RT) results revealed that females (compared with males) showed significantly smaller interference effects overall, especially in the Flanker and the FlankerSimon conditions; Importantly, gender difference in conflict adaptation were marked in the FlankerSimon condition. In addition, the error rate data did not show any gender difference. Thus, gender difference in conflict adaptation can explain the present results, for example, females can effectively control the behavioral conflict, and adapt to the highconflict context.

Key words: gender differences; conflict control; conflict adaptation; multisource interference task (MSIT)
