Switch costs in task switching are often assumed to reflect the strengthening of task-related associations. Recently, we provided evidence that committing an error leads to the strengthening of the wrong task (Steinhauser &amp; Hübner, 2006). In the present study, we report how error-induced control compensates for the effects of error strengthening. We hypothesized that, although error detection cannot prevent an error from being strengthened, it initiates processes that suppress the negative consequences of error strengthening on subsequent trials. Because error-induced control is known to operate slowly, we predicted that a compensatory effect should be observable only for slow responses. In three task-switching experiments, these predictions were confirmed by distributional analyses. The results extend our understanding of the interplay between procedural learning and executive control.
