The Simon task and effect, first identified by J. R. Simon and his colleague in 1963, demonstrate that people react more swiftly and accurately when the characteristics of a stimulus and its response align, such as both occurring on the same side of the body. This phenomenon is part of the broader category of stimulus-response compatibility effects. It is similar to the Stroop effect in highlighting the challenges experienced during a mismatch between a stimulus and its response, which is easily noticeable.
