For this assignment, you will complete a research paper on The Stroop Effect and the effects of substance use during the experiment. The Stroop Effect is a phenomenon that occurs with the Stroop Task, a test that looks at what happens when we are asked to perform an ordinary task (such as reading or identifying a list of colors) when there is some sort of visual interference.
You are acting like you are the researcher who conducted this study! However, you do not have to actually collect the data – I already have that for you. In order to understand how the study works and how data was collected, you will need to participate in an online experiment on the Stroop Effect located within the “psychology learning tools”.
Once you have completed the experiment you will need to analyze data and write a lab report (7- 10 pages – this page count does not include the title page or references) in APA style consisting of the following sections:
Title Page
Abstract
Introduction
Method
Results
Discussion
