Running head: STROOP EFFECT STUDY ON BILINGUALS Comparison of Stroop Effect on Turkish and English Bilinguals and the Effect of Proficiency Level on English In partial fulfilment of the requirements for Statistics and Research Methods 5 June 2008 Abstract People identify the color of a word faster if the word color is congruent with the ink color‚ than if the color is incongruent with the ink color. This is called Stroop Effect. In the present study the aim was to find whether language

The materials include a visual aid for the participants to look at the different combinations of the words’ congruence and orientation. A classroom will be needed to administer the experiments which will need enough desks to seat all of the university-level participants‚ the visual aid for the slides and a timer that the TA will

The investigation into the effect of social facilitation on the performance level within the Stroop effect. Abstract The relationship between social facilitation (first discovered by Triplett in 1898) and the issue of interference within the Stroop effect were investigated. Fifty participants were recruited and took part in a repeated measures design. Participants were given a list of congruent and incongruent words in single and paired situations. The overall findings of this study suggest

Lateralized Stroop Effects Andrew Hanna Psychology Program Arizona State University‚ Tempe‚ AZ Introduction Through broad literature review the stroop effect can be explained through demonstration of a reaction time of a task. We built upon the basic ideas developed in the previous Stroop models of MacLeod in 1991‚ Belanger & Cimino in 2002‚ and J.R. Stroop‚ the first person to publish its significance in English in 1935(Stroop‚ 1935). In the Stroop model‚ color-words are variously presented

DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies their DNA; it is the basis for biological inheritance. The process starts when one double-stranded DNA molecule produces two identical copies of the molecule. The cell cycle (mitosis) also pertains to the DNA replication/reproduction process. The cell cycle includes interphase‚ prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telophase. Each strand of the original double-stranded DNA molecule serves as template for the production

Abstract During this investigation‚ we will replicate the study by Stroop (1935) that resulted that our serial verbal reactions are affected by interference. In the investigation‚ 10 participants will be gathered‚ then will be given a paper that contains a list of color names that are written in colors that are congruent of the name of the color‚ they are to read the words out loud. A second paper will be given to them after the first. The second paper will contain a list of words that are again

RSAMI – GROUP II ‘Testing the competence of the Stroop test when taken by undergraduate students with pairs of words and colours that are congruous‚ incongruous and semantic.’ ABSTRACT This experiment was conducted using a semantic variation in addition to the original Stroop test to determine the difference in reaction times when applied to congruent‚ incongruent and semantic words and colours. The experiment was conducted with a sample of 20 (17 female‚ 3 male) junior freshman psychology

The Advantages of DNA Replication DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid‚ and it is found in the nucleus of every cell in the human body. DNA is the master plan - it contains all the genetic information needed for a living thing to develop and function. Each and every single organism has a unique and different DNA encoding. DNA’s purpose is to store all of our genetic information similar to the way a builders blue print sets out the design of a house. Without DNA there would be no such thing as

The Stroop test‚ on the other hand‚ is a neuropsychological test that measures a person’s attention span in response to both visual and verbal stimulation in order to investigate individual executive functioning and potential cognitive deficits as they relate to conflict resolution and behaviors. Stroop testing is an efficient assessment for identifying appropriate and inappropriate behaviors in a conflict since it evaluates participants on levels of cognitive functioning. For example‚ according
