The Stroop test

A test of a person’s ability to resist interference. In its classic version, the subject tested is asked to name the colour in which are written words which themselves designate a colour. The speed and the number of errors committed are the parameters which are taken into account. Thus, whilst it easy to name the colour green when the word is written in ‘green’, the operation is trickier when the word ‘red’ is written in green, for example.
