Method Participants 168 psychology students at Binghamton University enrolled in Research Methods (PSYC 344) participated in this study. 113 of these participants were females (67.26%)‚ and 55 were males (32.74%). Of these 168 participants‚ zero were freshmen‚ 18 were sophomores (10.71%)‚ 112 were juniors (66.67%)‚ and the remaining 38 were seniors (22.62%).

The experiment tests whether conflict takes place between the automatic process of reading a word and the controlled process of naming the ink colour of the word by replicating a version of the Stroop effect. A sample of 20 volunteering participants‚ 10 men and 10 women‚ aged 18-69‚ took part in the experiment. Participants were given two conditions‚ one list with colour-related distractor words and one list with colour-neutral words. For each participant‚ time necessary to name the ink colour of

The materials include a visual aid for the participants to look at the different combinations of the words’ congruence and orientation.

The investigation into the effect of social facilitation on the performance level within the Stroop effect. Abstract The relationship between social facilitation (first discovered by Triplett in 1898) and the issue of interference within the Stroop effect were investigated. Fifty participants were recruited and took part in a repeated measures design. Participants were given a list of congruent and incongruent words in single and paired situations. The overall findings of this study suggest

Lateralized Stroop Effects Andrew Hanna Psychology Program Arizona State University‚ Tempe‚ AZ Introduction Through broad literature review the stroop effect can be explained through demonstration of a reaction time of a task. We built upon the basic ideas developed in the previous Stroop models of MacLeod in 1991‚ Belanger & Cimino in 2002‚ and J.R. Stroop‚ the first person to publish its significance in English in 1935(Stroop‚ 1935). In the Stroop model‚ color-words are variously presented

‘Testing the competence of the Stroop test when taken by undergraduate students with pairs of words and colours that are congruous‚ incongruous and semantic.’ ABSTRACT This experiment was conducted using a semantic variation in addition to the original Stroop test to determine the difference in reaction times when applied to congruent‚ incongruent and semantic words and colours. The experiment was conducted with a sample of 20 (17 female‚ 3 male) junior freshman psychology students (Mean age = 19

This is called Stroop Effect. In the present study the aim was to find whether language

The distance d/cm is measured between the middle of one domino to the middle of the next domino Dependent Variable: Time taken for all the dominoes to be toppled to the ground. The timing will start when the 1st domino is hit by a metal ball and it will stop when the last domino falls completely

Twenty undergraduate students of mixed age and gender were each presented with 48 coloured words in turn. These were divided into 16 of each of 3 levels of congruence.
