Stroop Effect Discuss your experience (was it challenging? how do you feel you did?) and your results (provide the actual results, describe the results and compare to others in the MTSU group and global community). Then answer the following questions: Look at your individual data. Were you faster on congruent trials or incongruent trials? Does this surprise you? Why or why not? What is the most commonly accepted explanation of why most people are slower on incongruent trials than on congruent trials in the Stroop task? What strategy could one use to overcome the Stroop Effect observed in this demonstration?
