Background: The standard version of the Simon task (an instrument for assessing attentional demands, inhibitory control and the perception-action cycle) comprises a total of 168 trials. Different versions of this task are used in the literature, but it is not clear whether the Simon effect can be found using brief versions of the test.Purpose: This study aims to investigate the presence of the Simon effect and its test-retest reliability in a brief version of 28 trials of the Simon task.Material and Methods: Ninety-two (92) subjects between the ages of 18-30 participated in this study. Participants performed two sessions (test and retest) in which the brief battery of the Simon task was used. Latency (reaction time - RT) and the accuracy (number of errors) were measured for the two typical conditions of the test (corresponding and non-corresponding).Results: A significant interaction (two-way ANOVA) between condition and moment (test vs. retest) was found for RT. Main effects were observed for both conditions (corresponding vs. non- corresponding) and moment (test vs. retest). A good measurement of reliability (α Cronbach = 0.883) was also observed.Conclusions: The 28-trial battery of the Simon Task seems to be efficient for eliciting the Simon Effect and it can therefore be considered reliable.

simon任务的重试可靠性：简短版本建议。

背景：Simon任务的标准版（一种评估注意力需求，抑制性控制和知觉-行动周期的工具）总共包括168个试验。文献中使用了该任务的不同版本，但尚不清楚是否可以使用测试的简短版本来找到西蒙效应。目的：本研究旨在调查西蒙效应的存在及其在测试中的重测信度。材料和方法：年龄在18至30岁之间的92名（92名）受试者参加了这项研究。参与者进行了两次会议（测试和重新测试），其中使用了简短的Simon任务组。测量了两种典型测试条件（对应和不对应）的延迟（反应时间-RT）和准确性（错误数）。结果：条件和力矩（测试）之间存在显着的交互作用（双向方差分析） vs. retest）。在条件（对应与不对应）和力矩（测试与再测试）这两个条件下均观察到了主要影响。结论：Simon Task的28次试验电池似乎有效地引起了Simon效应，因此可以认为是可靠的。它的可靠性得到了很好的衡量（αCronbach = 0.883）。
