Document Summary
Lab 5 - measuring cognitive processes - stroop interference. What is the effect of x on y while controlling for z? or more specifically today We have 2 ivs (x) - name ink vs. read word. We have 1 dv (y) - response time to name or read 20 items (rt in seconds) We have 4 cvs (z) - the size of the stimuli to be named or read. The number of items to be named or read per trial. In this task you will be asked to name out loud a series of 20 colour names based on the actual words presented or the colour of the ink of the words (or in some cases colour patches). You are to name or read the colours as fast as you can without making too many mistakes (better yet - none) On each trial there will be 20 items to say out loud, scanning from top left to bottom right.
