Multiple mode Stroop Test

This program allows the experimenter to present 4 forms of the Stroop Test:

Classic: (colour names are presented, option to include congruent trials)
Emotional: (present word lists comprised of emotional & neutral words)
Pictorial: (present Images with coloured borders, width optional)

Image Pairs: (present 2 Images with coloured borders, width optional)

 

The experimenter has full control over the content via a number of plain text word lists and Images.

Options include:

• 4 or 6 colour (blue, red, green, yellow, & purple, brown)
• Fixation interval and post trial pause
• Subject response via keyboard or mouse click / touch screen
• Number of practice trials
• Training feedback
• Image size and border width (Pictorial Stroop)
  

 

 

The Emotional and Pictorial tests allow the use of a separate word/image list for practice trials, whilst all 3 tests have a training mode to gain familiarity with the keyboard or mouse.

The Image Pairs task presents 2 images, drawn from different categories, each surrounded by a coloured border. The task is to click the colour associated with a positive, or neutral image, and will be of interest to researchers interested in attentional training. A similar procedure was used as part of the Alcohol Attention-Control Training Programme (AACTP).

Results:
Upon completion, each test will output a plain text file in CSV format. This will contain a record of the responses and timings, along with some summary information such as mean reaction times, percentage correct, etc. These files may be imported to a spreadsheet for further analysis.

New for August 2011: Graph Utility We've now added a simple utility to produce graphs from your results. This program will import your result files and create graphs to show the response times to emotional/neutral stimilii, along with a distraction index. It is included within the main download, or you may download just the graph utility from the link below.

Latest news - January 2012 - internet version released.
