	Stroopbiog
		John Ridley Stroop was born March 21, 1897 in a small farming community called Hall's Hill, in Rutherford County, seven miles outside Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
		J. Ridley Stroop and Zelma Stroop are buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee.
		Stroop's dissertation research was carried out in the Jesup Psychological Laboratory under the supervision of Professor Joseph Peterson, who was clearly influential in Stroop's choice of a dissertation topic (see the footnote and introduction to Stroop, 1935a).

	Vanderbilt University Register: Stroop effect helps put Vanderbilt on psychology map
		That is the essence of the Stroop effect, which was discovered in the 1930’s by John Ridley Stroop as part of his doctoral thesis in psychology at George Peabody College for Teachers, which is now part of Vanderbilt.
		In the realm of cognitive psychology, the Stroop effect and the variations that have been developed on the original theme have found increasing importance because they represent a unique window into the interplay between mental processes that are automatic and those that are under conscious control.
		Stroop was born in 1897 on a farm in Hall’s Hill, the fifth of sixth children.

		John Ridley Stroop first reviewed this phenomenon in a Ph.D. thesis published in 1935, and over 700 articles have been written about it since.
		Perhaps the Stroop effect's sensitivity to changes in brain function is related to its association with the anterior cingulate.
		In any case, the Stroop Test may provide interesting insight into cognitive effects that might be experienced by climbers on the NOVA "Alive on Everest" expedition.

		Stroop referred to his tests as RCN, to stand for "Reading Color Names", where participants were required to repeat the written meaning of words with differing coloured fonts, and NCW, to stand for "Naming Colored Words", in which participants were asked to verbally identify the color of each printed color name.

	BACKGROUND ON THE STROOP EFFECT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		Stroop then compared the naming of colors for a list of solid color squares with the naming of colors for a list of words printed in incongruent colors.
		In summary, the difficulty of removing the interference effect of the Stroop task has led some researchers to claim that the brain is wired to recognize words without effort.
		What this means for the Stroop task is that if two pathways are active simultaneously and the pathway that leads to the response is stronger (naming words), no interference occurs.

	Do Colors Affect Response Times?
		In 1935, John Ridley Stroop created and performed an experiment to test the effects of color on word perception.(9) The following experiment was conducted to test the difference in response times of people when given two tests based on words, one with color and one without color, like that of Stroop's original test.
		Gender was recorded to account for differences in males and females (not recorded by Stroop), but only university age students were tested, therefore, age was not taken into consideration (nor was it a consideration for Stroop) and could affect the conclusion based on such response times.
		For part one of the Stroop Test, subjects were timed, and the amount of time that was used to read all of the words in the columns was recorded in a table.

	Efecto Stroop (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		Stroop (1935) había hipotetizado que, el hecho de que la denominación de colores siempre fuera más lenta que la lectura de palabras en los adultos que sabían leer, era debido a que los colores estaban asociados a una variedad de respuestas conductuales mientras que las palabras sólo estaban asociadas a la lectura.(Internetjen)
		Los estímulos del test de Stroop afectan, en un nivel básico, a la capacidad del sujeto para clasificar información de su entorno y reaccionar selectivamente a esa información; que corresponde a procesos de atención reguladora y deliberada.
		El efecto Stroop sugiere entonces, la presencia de la automaticidad en la lectura haciendo posible la interferencia semántica y con ello, el número de respuestas correctas disminuya, y cómo se dijo anteriormente, esto podría deberse a las teorías relacionadas con la velocidad del procesamiento de la información y con la atención selectiva.

	Scientific American Mind: The Limits of Multitasking -- Reading e-mail, sorting data and talking on the phone at ...
		That was when American psychologist John Ridley Stroop reported that processing the information for one task can cause "interference" with another.
		Stroop noticed that when study participants were asked to name the color of a word, such as "green," printed in an incompatible color--say, red--they experienced difficulty saying the color.
		Now known as the Stroop effect, the phenomenon is thought to occur when two tasks get tangled: the brain must suppress one that has been learned so well that it has become automatic (reading) to attend to a second that requires concentration (naming the color).

		Second, the lemma of the corresponding word is retrieved (i.e., red), in the Stroop literature often referred to as response selection (except that it here involves lemmas, which is new).
		To illustrate a simulated Stroop trial, assume that the color has to be named of a red color patch on which the word green is superimposed, with the word presented 100 msec before the color (i.e., the SOA is -100 msec).
		This supports the assumption of the model that two lexical levels are involved in speaking words, a lemma and a morpheme level, and that the form-to-form route in oral reading involves a lexical rather than just a grapheme-to-phoneme mapping, where, by definition, the identity of the words involved plays no role.

		In the hypnosis sessions, which lasted on average 25 minutes, the volunteers were told that when they later heard a cue, such as a coughing sound, they would see the printed words as gibberish and only be able to focus on the ink.
		The subjects who were suggestible to hypnosis completed the Stroop task 10% faster than their counterparts after this cue.
		Their brain scans showed that their anterior cingulate cortex, a region of the brain involved in planning and conflict resolution, had less activity compared with the non-hypnotized subjects.

		One common technique is to do the task pretty much the same way John Ridley Stroop did it for his dissertation in 1935.
		The common finding with both techniques is that it takes longer to name the ink color if it is in the form of an incompatible color name (e.g., the word RED printed in green ink) than if it is in the form of a neutral word or random letters.

		The Stroop effect, pioneered by John Ridley Stroop in 1935, is a delay in of subjectâs processing of semantic meaning of a word versus the brainâs automatic response to stimuli.
		The original Stroop effect experiment required the subject to read words of color that is printed with different color or with a different color background while recording the time it takes for the subject to respond.
