modified version of a Stroop experiment using colour-associated and colour neutral words. Abstract: This experiment investigated the Stroop effect comparing response times between naming colour ink printed in colour-associated words and colour neutral words. Previous research of two-process theories which support Stroop’s studies [cited in Edgar:2007] found that automatic processes can interfere with controlled processes. To test this interference further‚ colour-associated words were employed.
