Science is a great boon to mankind. At the same time it is a big curse also. It is as destructive as constructive. It has given state-of-the-art weapons and warheads in the hands of mankind which cause mass killing and destruction at a far-off place merely at the trigger of a button. Science has produced hydrogen bomb‚ nuclear bombs‚ fighting aircraft‚ nuclear submarine‚ missiles‚ laser bombs‚ etc. These things of warheads are highly destructive. They can wipe this planet of the existence of mankind

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. The time required to identify the colour of each stimulus

Fair or Not Fair As once said by Nelson Mandela “A good leader can engage in a debate frankly and thoroughly‚ knowing that at the end he and the other side must be closer‚ and thus emerge stronger. You don’t have that idea when you are arrogant‚ superficial‚ and uninformed.” Only when you meet that criteria can you be considered a good leader‚ however in Sophocles’ book Antigone once a crime has been committed not only is the guilty killer put on trial but whether or not Creon is a good leader is

Fair Science Testing Notes A hypothesis proposes a possible cause and effect relationship between two variables. This involves selecting one variable and suggesting how this variable might influence other variables An independent variable is the variable that is changing in the experiment. It is sometimes called the manipulated variable. There can only be one independent variable‚ as any more than one can lead to unfair results. A Dependent Variable is the variable that is getting recorded

As soon as she got I thought she was going to give us an easy assignment to complete in a day or two‚ but this time that was not the case she ended up giving us the longest homework of the year and it was our science fair project. The assignment took us about a month to complete because she took it in steps since it was the first time that anyone was going to do it. The first step is the same as anything you do in your everyday in life and it is what

Revisiting the Stroop Effect: Conditions Affecting Word-Color Response University of California‚ Irvine Contact information Abstract The stroop effect causes interference within people when the color of a word and a word‚ the name of a color‚ are incongruently matched. We tested this phenomenon to see if our results would be held constant as reviewed by existing literature. Our experiment used different conditions which

automatic processes employing the Stroop effect experiment. Abstract The interference between the controlled and the automatic processes was observed in the Stroop effect type experiment using two different conditions. The original Stroop effect experiment concluded that the participants will find it more difficult to complete the reading task of the words related to colour meaning in comparison to the reading task of non-colour related words. The result of Stroop experiment supported the notion

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
