Investigation of the Stroop effect Anonymous The current study focused on the Stroop effect‚ which is the observation that it takes longer to name the colour of the ink in which a word is printed if the word spells a different colour than it does to identify a block of colour‚ It involves the use of automatic and controlled processes. The Stroop effect was tested on participants who were part of a repeated measures groups design‚ there were two males and two females aged

An experiment into the interference between automatic and controlled processing: A variation of the Stroop effect. Abstract The effects of completing a task which requires the use of both automatic and controlled processes was investigated through a two-process experiment designed around a variation of the Stroop effect. Previous research found that‚ when performing certain tasks‚ response time is longer when an automatic process conflicts with a controlled process‚ in this instance reading interferes

A Replication of the Stroop Effect Kimber-Ann Cook Broughton High School 3/26/08 Ms. Greene IB Psychology SL 1‚ 738 Abstract The Stroop (1935) effect is the inability to ignore a color word when the task is to report the ink color of that word (i.e.‚ to say "green" to the word RED in green ink). The present study investigated whether object-based processing contributes to the Stroop effect. According to this view‚ observers are unable to ignore irrelevant features of an attended object (Kahneman

Introduction. The ’Stroop Effect ’ was first introduced in 1935. It originated from the theory of automatic processes. It is clear that some processing activities become automatic as a result of prolonged practice eg. Typing‚ driving‚ etc. Automatic processes therefore are fast‚ require no attention and are unavoidable. Stroop believed that there was some evidence that word identification may be a form of an automatic process. In the experiment participants had to name the colours in which the

Investigating Stroop effect using coloured-associated words and neutral words in experiment Abstract The interaction between automatic and controlled processes was examined in ‘two-process theory’. Previous research has investigated the downside of the automatic processes which is illustrated in Stroop effect. It was found that automatic process of reading have interfered with the task of naming the colour of the ink in Stroop condition. Current experiment examined this interaction further

Running head: EXPLORING THE STROOP EFFECT Racing Hoses and the Stroop Effect Milana Istakhorova Brooklyn College – CUNY Fall 2011. Abstract The research assessed in this article discusses the Stroop effect. The Stroop effect occurs when our selective attention fails and we are unable to attend to some information and ignore the rest. This study tests the Stroop effect by presenting the participant with a congruent or incongruent word and the participant is asked to type the color of the word or

STROOP EFFECT When the words ‘red‚ green‚ yellow and blue’ printed in coloured inks but in incongruent combinations of colour and word e.g. the word ‘red’ printed in colour yellow‚ the word yellow in the colour blue and so on and the Ss are required to name the colours as quickly as they can‚ ignoring the words‚ it is not easy to do so. Invariably‚ the colours are hard to name than when they are shown in simple strips uncomplicated by the words. Typically volume of voice goes up; reading falters;

The effect is named after John Ridley Stroop‚ who published the effect in English in 1935 in an article entitled Studies of interference in serial verbal reactions that includes three different experiments.[1] However‚ the effect was first published in 1929 in German‚ and its roots can be followed back to works of James McKeen Cattell and Wilhelm Wundt in the nineteenth century.[2][3][4] In his experiments‚ J. R. Stroop administered several variations of the same test for which three different
