Experience the fascinating Stroop Effect while putting your brain to the test.
This application demonstrates a captivating cognitive phenomenon where your brain processes conflicting information - the visual color perceived by your eyes versus the written color name processed by your rational mind.
Understanding the Stroop Effect
Neuroscience reveals our visual system processes color information faster than our cognitive system can interpret written words. This creates an intriguing mental conflict that challenges your cognitive control and attention.
Under time pressure, you'll experience the impulse to respond instinctively while consciously needing to override this automatic response. This mental tug-of-war strengthens your focus and response inhibition capabilities.
Game Instructions
Getting Started: Select from two challenging modes: 1. Classic Stroop ("Meaning over Color") - Identify the word meaning while ignoring the ink color 2. Reverse Stroop ("Color over Meaning") - Focus on the ink color while disregarding the written word
When a stimulus appears, quickly select the correct response from four colored buttons. Initially aim for accuracy, then work on reducing your response time as you improve.
