Testing of the Stroop effect in colour-associated words and neutral words Abstract Study examined the Stroop effect in words which are not colours‚ but represent related object connected to certain colours and whether that would yield similar or the same effect as the classic Stroop study. Previous studies such as Stroop’s (1935) found out a clash between controlled and automatic processing‚ which resulted in delayed answering. This experiment was conducted for 20 participants of both sexes

The Stroop effect and attention: Effect of automatic and controlled processing on the performance of a colour identification task. Abstract The present experiment aimed to carry out a modification of the experiment on automatic processes carried out by Stroop and to discover whether automatic processing could intrude on a colour identification task. Stoop’s original research found that the response time reading the colour of the ink of the words describing different colour was greater than

Controlled Vs Automatic processes: A 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

An experiment to investigate a variation of the Stroop effect and how it works on non colour related words. Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to investigate a variation of the Stroop effect. The experiment will include non colour related words as well as colour related words and these words will be written in colours that are not related to the words written. There are 20 participants and they will be shown both conditions in different order and they are required to say the colour of

This is a study to show how the brain controls recalling colour evocative wording against non colour evocative wording using the Stroop effect Abstract This experiment researched the effect of the automatic processes the brain behaves in the Stroop effect. The Stroop effect was found by J.R Stroop in 1932‚ and it tries to identify when participants recalling the colour‚ in which words are written more difficult than recalling words that are in conflicting colours to which they are printed

The second question is whether or not caffeine improved the performance of participants in the speech based tasks. Data sets used: V1(Sex of participant)‚ V3(What was the drink taken)‚ V23 (Stroop test-time taken to read word) and V24 (Stroop test-time taken to read colour) 2: What is the background of your study?

this study was to see how our capacity to inhibit urges can be affected by ego depletion. This study was also done to test the effects of beliefs about self control on subsequent performance in self control tasks. Participants’ performance on the Stroop task and phonemic fluency task and subjective feelings of tiredness were assessed before and after an ego depletion task‚ one group was primed to believe that self control resources are limited whereas the other group was primed to believe they were

TMA 01 Part 1 Explain the place of anonymity in theories of crowd behaviour. Is it always associated with a ‘loss of self’ All social psychology theories agree that being part of a crowd alters human psychology however‚ they differ on where they believe this alteration is situated. Early work of Le Bon laid the foundations for later deindividuation theories suggesting that being part of a crowd leads to the loss of self. It suggests that people follow crowd behaviour mindlessly‚ often
