In the version of this article initially published, the standard deviation values 117.84 (pre-test) and 142.12 (post-test) in the “Countermanding: Active control” row of Table 3 were erroneously shown as 15.09 and 18.20, respectively. Furthermore, the post-test mean value of 9.43 in the “Sequencing: N-back training” row was incorrectly shown as 9.44. The errors have been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
