The Stroop Effect
Just learned about the Stroop effect. You can experience it for yourself using this quick test from the Stroop effect Wikipedia page:
Say aloud the colors of each of these words, as fast as you can:
Green Red Blue
Yellow Blue Yellow
Blue Yellow Red
Green Yellow Green
If naming the first group of colors is easier and quicker than the second, then your performance exhibits the Stroop effect.
