his experiment will trick your mind even if you tried it is called the stroop effect.Stroop effect is a phenomenon that which you must say the color of word but not the name of word. It is easier to say the color of the word than the color that the ink is. For example oif the word black that was printed in black it would be much easier but if it was it pink ink it would be much harder to say.How does the stroop effect work?The words themselves interfere with your ability to quickly say the correct color of the word. Two different theories have been proposed to explain this phenomenon.Thisi theory naming the actual color of the words need much more attention that just reading the words.
Speed of Processing Theory: According to this theory, people can read words much faster than they can name colors. …show more content…
Recognizing colors is less of automated process. While the brain processes written meaning automatically, it does require an amount of attention making it more hard to process color information and slowing down reaction times.What this shows is that the brain can’t help but read. As constant readers, we encounter difficult words on such a repeating basis that the reading we develop almost effortlessly where areas declaration of a color requires more effort. What this reveals is that the brain can’t help but read. As habitual readers, we encounter and comprehend words on such a persistent basis that the reading occurs almost effortlessly, whereas declaration of a color requires more cognitive effort. When there is a conflict between these two sources of information, our cognitive load is increased, and our brains have to work harder to resolve the required difference. Performing these tasks (preventing reading, processing word color, and resolving information conflict) ultimately slows down our responses, and makes the task take longer.ve effort.
