Bidirectional Interferences in a Large-small Stroop Task

Task conflict in the Stroop task: When Stroop interference decreases as Stroop facilitation increases in a low task conflict context

In the present study participants completed two blocks of the Stroop task, one in which the response-stimulus interval (RSI) was 3500 ms and one in which RSI was 200 ms. It was expected that, in line with previous research, the shorter RSI would induce a low Task Conflict context by increasing focus on the color identification goal in the Stroop task and lead to a novel finding of an increase i...

A Reverse Stroop Task with Mouse Tracking

In a reverse Stroop task, observers respond to the meaning of a color word irrespective of the color in which the word is printed-for example, the word red may be printed in the congruent color (red), an incongruent color (e.g., blue), or a neutral color (e.g., white). Although reading of color words in this task is often thought to be neither facilitated by congruent print colors nor interfere...

Evidence from a Modified Stroop Task

Attentional Uncertainty in the Stroop Priming Task

The dissociation of neural circuits in a Stroop task.

The Stroop effect refers to an increase in response time observed when the word meaning and the stimulus hue do not match. In an incongruent condition, the word 'green' is presented in the color red, whereas in a congruent condition the word 'red' is presented in the color red. To determine at what level of processing the Stroop effect takes place, we recorded event-related potentials while par...
