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

The earth doesn’t have an even balance of heat and the reason for this is because the earth is a geoid ‚ the sun’s rays hit directly on the equator(caused by unequal insolation due to three factors: angle of strike‚ atmospheric depletion and surface area.) and then move outwards towards the polar areas. The atmosphere together with the ocean currents work hard to try and even out the imbalance of heat energy by redistributing the air from the equator to the Polar Regions but also from the Earth’s

drag. In a previous experiment‚ multiple variables thought to affect drag were tested. Previously tested variables were weight and surface area. It was found that weight had an inverse exponential effect on time it took the coffee filter to fall to the ground‚ while surface area had an inverse linear effect. After multiple iterations of this experiment‚ two observations were points of discussion. While height was kept constant during each iteration‚ it was noticed that

Trade-Offs and the Bullwhip Effect A trade-off refers to any situation that entails losing an aspect or quality of an item in return for achieving another aspect. In the corporate context‚ the term is majorly used in cases where there is the need to get rid of some things in return for other better things (Khayum‚ 2003). There are a number of trade-offs that impact the operations of business organizations. Inventory Transportation Costs Inventory transportation costs refer to the costs of delivering

These are important in determining the wellbeing of a patient because they display in numbers how one is feeling or reacting to certain medications and treatments. There are “norms” or normal numbers and when a patient

Abstract: This lab tests how temperature and pH affect how enzymes will function. The lab showed that temperature will denature an enzyme when past its optimal working temperature and won’t denature in cold temperatures‚ but have slowed molecular activity. pH will also have an affect on an enzymes efficiency‚ when out of optimal pH the enzyme will not function as it is supposed to and if to far out of the optimal pH the enzyme will change shape and no longer work. Enzymes also showed to be reusable

How does water temperature affect the amount of dissolved oxygen? Ⅰ. Introduction Dissolved oxygen is just one of the many ways to measure water quality. It means the volume of oxygen that is contained in water. The amount of dissolved oxygen in water usually determines the quantity of organisms living in that water. Dissolved oxygen levels vary by how much oxygen the water can hold‚ how much oxygen is produced by photosynthesis‚ and how much oxygen is consumed by respiration. If water is too warm

to the full moon. Maybe not so much today‚ but a long time ago‚ a lot of stuff got blamed on the moon. Although a majority of people no longer blame the big bad moon‚ some people believe that the moon has an affect on us. This is called the Lunar Effect. Actually several studies have been done to see if the moon really affects humans and animal. A study was done at the Colorado State University Veterinary Medical Center and the study showed that during the full moon more pets have come in. It showed
