Popis: Sixty female school children were given two concept identification (CI) problems in which feedback was actually scheduled for 12 presolution and 6 criterion trials in each problem. Five seconds after each CI trial, S made a second response (R 2 ) in which she either pulled a lever or pushed a panel under high or low effort. The next CI trial began after a 20-sec interval. R 2 response and movement time was longer following incorrect than correct feedback contrary to expectations generalized from frustration theory. Lever versus panel and high versus low effort influenced overall all time but no interactions with feedback occurred. The postfeedback effect could be attributed to cognitive or motivational processes that clicit greater response interference following incorrect than correct feedback.
