This advanced topic activity is very simple. HERE is the code for a simple version of the Stroop paradigm.
I am assuming you know the Stroop Paradigm, but in case you do not it works this way. You show people a series of words, typically all colours: red, green, blue. The task for participants is to label the colour that the word appears in but not what the word says. So, for example if the word red is written in red you press "r". However, if the word red is written in green you press green.
Just looking at these two words you might see the effect:
RED versus RED
Things To Do
1. Download the code, play it, and experience it working.
2. Go through and add comments to EACH line of code once you figure out what it is doing. Once you are done this step, I can email you a file with all of the comments in.
3. Try adding in yellow as a fourth possible word and response.
