person would have a strategic bias that means they would make (relatively) few inhibition errors if they were to perform a Stop Signal task. It is possible to alter participants’ strategic biases when they perform these tasks, for example by providing instructions and/or providing financial incentives that reward either rapid responding or successful inhibition. As an interesting aside, we note that similar incentives can overcome the effects of ego depletion (83) and psychomotor impairment after alcohol consumption (84), suggesting some degree of intentional control over the expression of disinhibited behavior (85).
