Do The Stroop


Do the Stroop graphicThe Stroop effect was first described in a 1935 article by American psychologist John Ridley Stroop who developed this task. At this station, students read two lists of color words - the second of which shows the word printed in a color different from the one the word represents - and asks students to identify which of the lists was more challenging and why.
