Abstract The aim of this experiment is to study autonomic processes by replicating the previously carried out Stroop effect by using numbers. A number of 180 random participants aged in between 18-89 were recruited to participate in this experiment. Participants were presented with a stroop experiment task sheet which consists of three parts which was the control‚ congruent and incongruent conditions. Time was taken and recorded for each participant to say out the number of stars in the control condition

Stroop Effect (Blindsight) Stroop effect is a good project to do if one wants to know more about the eyes and brains connection. The most commonly used example is what is known as the Stroop Test‚ which compares the time needed to name colors when they are printed in an ink color that matches their name (e.g.‚ green‚ yellow‚ red‚ blue‚ brown‚ purple) with the time needed to name the same colors when they are printed in an ink color that does not match their name (e.g.‚ blue‚ red‚ purple‚ green

The Stroop Effect Experiment In 1935‚ John Ridley Stroop conducted the original experiments of the stroop effect. The stroop effect is an effect that occurs when individuals attempt to name the color of words that spell out a conflicting color. Stroop reported an interference effect when individuals were asked to report the color of words presented to them. Stroop collected his data by showing his participants a sheet of paper with printed words on it. He then asked his participant’s to name the

Results and discussion INTRODUCTION The Stroop effect is a classic cognitive psychology experiment discovered and first studied by J. Ridley Stroop 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 e.g. 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

This study was conducted to test if the Horse Race Model is a valid reason for the Stroop effect as there has been some conflict in past research

Monahan Central Michigan University‚ monah1js@mail.cmich.edu Abstract Automaticity‚ both reading and response‚ response competition‚ translation models‚ and the imbalance/uncertainty model of the Stroop effect were investigated. Two participants received four weeks of key press practice using standard Stroop stimuli. Tests of RT to standard Stroop‚ Single colored letter‚ and Stroop dilution stimuli were conducted before and after each week of

The Stroop Effect has been widely researched. It explains how a cognitive process might interfere with another cognitive process (MacLeod‚ 1991). This effect works because associations already made in the brain inhibit recall abilities for new associations (Stroop‚ 1935). The Stroop Effect is relevant because it can explain what cognitive processes are automatic compared to controlled processes. An automatic process is naturally fast and does not need conscious attention to be accomplished‚

Exploring the Stroop Effect by using numbers Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to study automatic processes by replicating the previously carried out Stroop effect by using numbers. This experiment was conducted by recruiting 8 participants (4 males and 4 females)‚ who are working in a head-office of Save the Children Organization in Yangon‚ selected by an opportunistic sample. Participants were presented with a Stroop-experiment-task sheet which consists of two parts which was the congruent
