Abstract
This experiment showed that adding a perceptual motor task to an effor t session on a cycloergometer for 4 men and 4 women led to an increase in perceived exertion. This effect is opposite to the dissociative ef fect classically reported in the literature. These contrasting results are analyzed according to the rate of processing imposed by the added task.
